4.0 out of 5 stars More Cross-Training:Building a Better Athlete with Dressage, November 30, 1999

This review is from: More Cross-Training: Build a Better Performance Horse with Dressage (Hardcover)

Jane Savoie is one of the clearest writers and educators in the sport of dressage and this book advocates the advantages of dressage for every horse. This second book is slightly better suited to the dressage enthusiast than every rider. This book features excellent illustrations/photos. The text is clear and advances the training of both horse and rider in a step-by-step manner that is consistant with classical dressage training. I have recommended the book to friends who ride in other disciplines.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth adding to your library, March 22, 2001

By 

Suzanne Bell Fraser (NH) - See all my reviews

This review is from: More Cross-Training: Build a Better Performance Horse with Dressage (Hardcover)

Both of Jane's cross training books are a great resource for trainers, riders, and instructors because of their content and their readability. The photos are numerous and first rate. They illustrate commonly made mistakes as well as the ideal and are well captioned. The text provides readers with easy to follow instructions on how to correct common mistakes, how to introduce new movements, and how to improve our horses overall. You can enjoy the book reading it from start to finish or just selecting sections that deal with a particular point of interest to you.

5.0 out of 5 stars terrific book, September 18, 2000

This review is from: More Cross-Training: Build a Better Performance Horse with Dressage (Hardcover)

i am a life-long rider in hunt seat, jumpers, and dressage, and i found this book to be well-written, straightforward, and illustrated with great photographs of horses and riders, showing both correct and incorrect movements and aids. anyone who wants a more disciplined, athletic, and well-balanced horse, as well as an improved attitude towards his or her riding, should read this book. it doesn't matter what your riding discipline is--dressage, hunt seat, or even western, trail, or endurance. the techniques that jane sets forth in her books will help every rider be more in tune with his or her mount, be more in control of the tremendous physical power of the horse, and therefore end up with a performance, whether in the show ring, or on the trail, that is a joy to ride.
