Lessons in Lightness, veteran trainer Mark Russell carries the classical knowledge of "riding in lightness" forward. His theories and concepts are drawn from the teachings of the French and Iberian ecuyers, or riding masters, who are credited with being the first to promote the benefits of suppleness and flexion in the horse in order to achieve lightness to the aids. By using these methods the rider unleashes the horse's true movement without either driving force (the rider's legs) or holding restraints (the rider's hands). When the rider enables the horse to use his energy efficiently, the horse will drive himself forward- once balanced in self-carriage, there will be no resistance in the rein. $16.95 Paperback - Call us to order 1-800-863-6405
