{"product_id":"horse-training-in-hand","title":"Horse Training In-Hand","description":"\u003cp\u003eWorking the horse from the ground—schooling \"in-hand\" as it has been known for centuries—has long been an integral part of classical horse training. Now, this gorgeously illustrated book explains in clear, step-by-step lessons how the modern-day horse owner can incorporate classical groundwork in her daily interactions with her equine partner—to both their benefit and enjoyment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether schooling green or young horses; retraining problem horses or those with poor foundations; warming-up advanced mounts prior to workouts; confirming lateral movements on the ground before attempting them on horseback; or supplementing everyday under-saddle exercises, work in-hand provides a wonderful way to advance the horse's education, as well as the standard of communication between horse and handler. Its gradual progression of work on the longe, double-longe, long lines, short reins, and long reins is the perfect addition to the training program that has grown a little stale or boring; the manageable solution to countless problems that commonly arise in daily work with horses; and by definition, an equestrian art form unto itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith over 100 color photographs—including many detailed series shots—to demonstrate correct body positioning, and meticulously hand-drawn illustrations to guide you through the often-confusing land of lateral work, Horse Training In-Hand is the first book ever to help shed classical groundwork's mystique while conscientiously preserving its magic. Find out for yourself how schooling in-hand can give your training program a brand new look and feel, forever transforming \"workouts\" and \"schooling sessions\" into artistic endeavors that yield breathtaking results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKip Mistral\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardback, very good condition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mangaiti Equine Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52609657274642,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0744\/4391\/5538\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_5bd92af7-09e9-4d10-a250-3195551e6d29.webp?v=1786849830","url":"https:\/\/mangaitiequine.com\/products\/horse-training-in-hand","provider":"Mangaiti Equine Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
