If you are like most people,you know what you want your horse to do and how you want him to behave. You want your training experiences to be safe and enjoyable for both you and your horse. But maybe you aren't sure what to do and when. In 101 Longeing and Long Lining Exercises you'll find complete ground training lesson plans from square 1 to square 101. Cherry Hill starts with basic in-hand and free longeing lessons, then takes you through the addition of a longe line, cavesson, bridle, surcingle, side reins, saddle, and long lines. You'll learn a wide variety of ground training exercises suitable for both English and Western horses. Each of the exercises is laid out with a diagram, step-by-step instructions, and an explanation of its benefits. The exercises progress from the basic skill to more advanced ones, such as counter-canter and flying changes of lead. This book and its companion, Longeing and Long Lining the English and Western Horse: A Total Program, give you a solid foundation for helping your horse work in productive form. | Canada Customers

| Valuable addition to any equestrian library. January 11, 2004 Reviewer: julie skaife from Lafayette, CA United States Spice up your ground work with this educational guide and develop a better relationship with your horse in the process. There are often days when we perhaps don't have the time to ride, but instead of just longeing around on the circle we could be more constructive - this book can help you. I find this book particulary useful when starting young horses.

| WOW!!! February 5, 2000 Reviewer: Anne Kelly from Parker, CO. Horse country!!! Never did I ever dream there was so much you could do with a horse free longing or long lining him. I have just purchased a racetrack thouroughbred and Lesson56 (sliding sidereins) has been particularly useful because he has a tendancy to carry his head up in the clouds hollowing his back and neck. It was almost as if when I put the sliding sidereins on he intuitively knew what I wanted him to do. Wonderful book!!!! This is one every horseman should have in his (or her) library.
