"Right From The Start" by Mike Schaffer

This is a great book! It walks you through training right from the start to produce a relaxed, balanced, soft, straight, responsive horse. The book is clearly written with detailed line drawings and has many clear, color photos of the exercises.

The book is a wonderful guide showing you how simple it is to teach your horse everything it needs for a solid foundation to move and carry you properly with greater ease and joy. It simplifies the process and keeps to what is important.

I highly recommend this book!

This book is a fascinating read! Covering working horses at Liberty, High School, Quadrille riding, Vaulting and Trick riding.
The book is full of detailed exercises with lots of photos. The photographs themselves are worth buying the book!

A great source of inspiration and encouragement to expand your current training routine as well as to add creativity and variety.
Whether your just looking to spice things up a little or do a full on circus liberty routine this book has something for you!

This is a fun book to read and learn from, a wonderful addition to any horse person's library! I highly recommend it!
