Horses Hate Surprise Parties

This is the first book for young riders about the science behind horse training. It provides simple explanations of the principles of Equitation Science and offers an evidence-based insight into how the horse thinks, learns and behaves. It is full of useful training exercises and fun facts and is highly recommended for all young (and not so young) horse lovers.

"We have been waiting a very long time to have the science of Learning Theory explained to young riders in a way they can understand. This book is an absolute gem and is something no budding young horse trainer should be without. A groundbreaker..." Jody Hartstone, International grand prix dressage rider and practitioner of Equitation Science

"Engaging, informative and practical - a rare feat! Finally, a presentation of Equitation Science which will not only inspire young trainers, but help to keep them safe. This book is the next step in the evolution of ethical, horse-friendly training.". Nicki Stuart, Principal, Kersbrook Equestrian Centre, ESI Assoc. Dip.. NCAS Level 1 coach
