Description This unique guide will help novice riders feel confident and at ease with a qualified instructor, and help them hone their skills outside of lesson time to gain maximum benefit from the lesson experience. Riding lessons with a qualified instructor are essential to becoming a competent equestrian. However, lessons can be an intimidating experience for a novice. Riding instructor Mike Smith knows firsthand the difficulties new riders face. With this in mind, Smith created this one-of-a-kind companion guide to boost new riders' confidence during lessons and help them practice effectively outside of lesson time. The book will acquaint new riders with riding terminology and the proper use of horse tack. Once novice riders have learned their way around a stable, Smith offers detailed instructions for basic horse handling techniques such as leading, mounting, walking, turning, halting, and dismounting. To aid riders in their practice time, subsequent chapters include instructions for learning to trot, perfecting the canter, jumping, and more. Paperback.
