About this product
Product Information
How to best communicate with the horse has long been pondered, studied, and deciphered. From a handler's body language on the ground to the rider's use of "aids" (seat, legs, reins) when in the saddle, the ways we convey our wishes to the horse are the essential foundation of the partnership we seek with him. Although the basic aids are taught at the most elementary levels of equitation, renowned classical dressage trainer Sylvia Loch feels that most riders never fully realize how their weight when mounted impacts the horse in hundreds of nuanced ways--both good and bad. Developing an understanding of "weight aids" ensures that riders cultivate better balance and "feel," ultimately riding with more empathy and a finer connection. Here, Loch provides an image-driven visual guide that shows how each tiny shift of the rider's weight affects the horse's balance. With the help of dozens of illustrations and fabulous color photographs, she demonstrates the minute changes in rider position that determine a horse's comprehension of instruction as well as his physical ability to perform. With this book, novice riders will develop a much greater awareness of their own bodies and abilities, as well as those of the horse, from Day One, while more experienced riders will discover new avenues that lead to successful riding performance and fulfilling relationships with their horses.

Reviews
...it's not just a book of pictures and a few captions, it goes beyond that and really helps the reader to understand the horse's balance... You don't have to be a competitive rider to enjoy this book and learn from it., "Why we love it: This book written by renowned classical dressage trainer Sylvia Loch helps riders understand the weight aids in pictures. It also includes a foreword by Olympian Charlotte Dujardin." -- Dressage Today "Riders who feel their riding isn't at its best should flip through this book for some easy pointers and descriptive images. -- Equine Journal "Sylvia Loch's The Rider's Balance is a solid, well-done book discussing the finer details of how the rider's weight aids impact the horse. While it's a dressage book, I feel riders of any discipline could benefit from it." -- Horse Nation, A stunning revelation and heartfelt valediction by Jacqui Louise Broderick of The Rider's Balance by Sylvia Loch. "Finally, a book dedicated solely to how to sit on a horse. Thank goodness. Horses everywhere must be sighing with relief at the arrival of this wonderful book by the incredible horsewoman, Sylvia Loch. Quite possibly all that is wrong is the rider inadvertedly sitting wrongly. If the rider doesn't understand how his weight impacts on the horse how can they possibly hope to achieve any productive relationship? What is contained in the pages of this book is something that all serious riders should take on board. Loch explains so well about the finer art of feel, something which is difficult to put into words and which is helped by the beautiful colour photographs in the book. This is a book I will read again and again, one that I will use to gain a greater understanding of my riding. I know my riding and awareness will improve no end because of this knowledge. Anyone who has struggled with their training will find this book gives them that eureka moment of understanding.", "Why we love it: This book written by renowned classical dressage trainer Sylvia Loch helps riders understand the weight aids in pictures.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
