Training Horses the Ingrid Klimke Way - An Olympic Medalist's Winning Methods for a Joyful Riding Partnership (Hardcover)

This book is the closest most of us will come to spending an extended period of time in the Klimke stable. Ingrid Klimke details her personal programme of bringing a horse along through the stages of progressive development and, in doing so, explains her training philosophy. She provides guidelines and exercise to ensure success without stress at each milestone. It's a wonderful insight into how Klimke customises the work to suit the individual horse. The result is surely a joyful partnership between rider and horse that will go the distance.
