Book Description

November 15, 2000
One of this country's most beloved teachers and clinicians, inducted into the USDF Hall of Fame, presents this delightful exploration of issues of gravity, balance and kinetics as applied to riding. Written in his own inimitable lively and humorous style, along with Patty Naegeli's charming cartoons, "Dr. Max" makes the physics of riding understanding and ---dare we say--- interesting!


Editorial Reviews

Review

"I got much more out of this book that I ever hoped and the things I learned really help! I was able to apply this knowledge in a very practical way and saw improvement in my horse and in my riding the very next time I got in the saddle." --A Reader in Texas

This review is from: The Competitive Edge III: Gravity, Balance, and Kinetics of the Horse and Rider (Hardcover)
Who knew physics could be so interesting? Dr. Gahwyler explains how weight, balance, and gravity affects our riding. This book is an illuminating blend of physics, kinesiology, and dressage!
