Stop, Go, Turn Perfecting the Basics of Riding by Claire Lilley
Being able to STOP, GO and TURN is fundamental to making progress in riding, whatever level you ride at and whichever discipline you enjoy. This book will help you refine position, aids and general riding technique, leading to harmony and a better partnership with any horse you ride.
Improving basic riding technique is all about perfecting it over time. There is no quick fix; it takes months or even years to develop. You have to learn to work as a team with every horse you ride, whether you are a novice rider just starting out, or an advanced rider wanting to improve. This book will give you a greater insight as to how three aspects of riding – stopping, moving and turning – are used both separately and interlinked to enable you to establish a correct training regime, whether you are starting a young horse,or retraining an older individual. The outcome of being able to stop, go and turn with ease is a horse that is well balanced, attentive to the rider’s aids and able to work through his back, and this can only be achieved under a rider with a correct position and clear aids. This book shows you how.

Olympic gold-medal-winner Ingrid Klimke was born under a bright star when it came to fulfilling dreams of equestrian greatness. Her father, Reiner Klimke, was an Olympic rider himself, and he instilled his principles of training and riding with the good of the horse in mind in his daughter at a young age. Ingrid has furthered her father’s esteemed legacy, modernizing two of the classic works by her father—the bestselling Basic Training of the Young Horse and Cavalletti–and tirelessly championing a balanced, fair, and caring system of training the horse that ensures his physical and mental well-being even while preparing him for the very top levels of international competition.
And now Ingrid has written a book of her own, detailing her personal system of bringing a horse along through the stages of progressive development, and providing readers guidelines and exercises to ensure success without stress at each milestone. The result is surely a joyful partnership between rider and horse that will go the distance.
