Great book!! March 31, 2008 Jumpingal (Colorado) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book was ver well written and one of the first books I have read cover to cover. Although some of the text is for beginners, most is a new way to look at the big picture of riding hunters and Eq. As I have been riding hunters for 20 years, I rarely find a better way to do things. Geoff gave me new insight and new tecniques (especially his work on body angles) that my students have loved. I also like his philosophy on horses and riding that "less is more". The book also drives home that sometimes the more basic you get the better results you have. He also has some great photos and a great course that each element can be worked on individualy without having to move obstacles each time. We are never too good to hear something that we may know but don't always do well!!!!
Hunter Seat Equitation November 19, 2007 H. Bonifas (Ohio, USA) This very informative book is both instuctional and motivational. While he has you setting your personal goals, he urges you to both reach for the stars and keep your feet on the ground. Easily read and enjoyed by anyone in (or trying to get into)the Hunter/Jumper equestrian world. His personal commitment to the welfare of both horse and rider is appreciated in a world where the "win at all costs" attitude is so prevelant.
Review of Geoff Teall's text of hunters, jumpers and equitation September 15, 2007 Fl Patriot (Florida) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Geoff Teall's book is by far one of the most thorough and comprehensive book of all aspects of riding hunters, jumpers and equitation. In my opinion, it compares to the classic riding manuals by the best riders, trainers and authors of the 20th century. This book is easy to read and understand; as it uses philosophy, pictures and how-to's for its content. The best part is that it is so enjoyable to read ! One can pick it up and put it down - and take imaginary lessons - visualize - then go out and practice the principles !
valuable resource January 10, 2007 Louise M. Sattler (Ottawa, Ont. Canada) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book would appeal most to the amateur competitor on the 'A' circuit or an aspiring trainer who is just about to start coaching at that level. It's essentially an experts recipe for success at this competitive level. If you're already a competitor at that level and don't understand certain aspects of the sport, you may find some great answers. From the importance of goal setting to exercises that develop correct position to riding the intricacies of and equitation course, you'll find some valuable information pertaining to it all.
If you ride this book is a must!!! August 2, 2006 DT (Bethel, CT) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
