"This book is not intended to teach you how to ride or train your horse. It explains the essence, the ultimate goal of riding; the feeling of harmony, elegance and lightness all of us riders are looking for and sometimes find glimpses of. This book presents you with some of my experience, hands-on exercises and tips on how to use your body and mind to find harmony and lightness with your horse." - Ylvie Fros
