Book Description

March 31, 2008
Horsewoman and clinician, Leslie Desmond of California presents selected readings from her latest book, ;Horse Handling and Riding Through Feel . Throughout the 10-CD set, she responds to a broad range of concerns that arise frequently for first-time horse owners and novice adult riders. Desmond, a German-born horsemanship coach, brings her approach to horse handling and riding to enthusiastic audiences from many sides of the horse industry. Drawing from her coaching experience, particularly with racing and sport horses in the US and Europe, she brings a refreshing perspective to the challenges that all trainers, competitors and backyard horse owners discover in their journey with horses. This collection will amuse and educate horse lovers regardless of their breed or discipline preference.
Candid interviews with Desmond offer listeners an insight into her perspective on teaching people how to train horses through feel. These recordings also include some rarely shared moments of reflection on the years she spent with the late Bill Dorrance, the legendary master horseman from Salinas, California. The set includes ten well-illustrated booklets with rare 18th century engravings, written selections from the narration, and previews of her next works.
Desmond s Horse Handling and Riding Through Feel is essential equipment for anyone who enjoys the equine experience

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent educational resource!, November 12, 2009

This review is from: Horse Handling & Riding Through Feel (Audio CD)
Educational doesn't have to mean boring! Along with sharing Bill Dorrance's horse wisdom, as well as her own, Leslie Desmond offers up interesting, and sometimes amusing, insights into the horseman that was Bill Dorrance. Horse handling and riding topics are organized in alphabetical order which makes it easy to find a particular subject that you may want to review. Or, like me, you may find yourself listening to the set from beginning to end several times over. With each listening, I find that I hear something "new" that I missed in prior listenings. This set of CDs has traveled many a mile with me and will travel many more because I'm confident that I'll never get to the bottom of the barrel of all that Leslie has to offer! The return is definitely worth the investment!

5.0 out of 5 stars Get these cds!, October 19, 2009
This review is from: Horse Handling & Riding Through Feel (Audio CD)
These are a great compliment to Leslie's book. She answers so many questions here that come up from reading the book. I think these would even be a great intro to the book. They are perfect to listen to in the car driving back and forth to work and the barn. You will listen to these over and over again and find something helpful in them each time, whether it's horsemanship education or inspiration you are looking for. Leslie is a wonderful compassionate teacher. Don't miss her. These cds are worth every penny.

5.0 out of 5 stars essential listening for equine lovers, March 26, 2010
By 
BB "onyxrim" (mountains North of Los Angeles) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Horse Handling & Riding Through Feel (Audio CD)
Horse Handling & Riding Through Feel is such a wonderful set to own, and listen to over and over. Every subject is food for thought for the serious horseman.
I never tire of listening to the thoughts Leslie has put to audio. In fact, it takes many listenings to truly get a grip on the depth and personaL importance of these ideas. If you own these tapes, you can re-visit the ideas as needed, as your own horsemanship becomes finer. Furthermore. for those of us who may regret the time spent away from riding, and handling our equines, these tapes can be enjoyed and absorbed while we endure our daily commute, and be helping our equine while driving to and from work. I recommend this set highly!
