Advanced Techiques of Dressage

Germany has won more championship medals in equestrian competitions than any other country in the world. Their success in so many disciplines including dressage must be largely due to their training systems which are applauded the world over as being clear logical and thorough. Advanced Techniques of Dressage is translated from the official instruction manual of the GNEF. It provides an instruction course in advanced level dressage for horse and rider. It describes in detail the criteria governing each stage of dressage training - from transitions and extensions to piaffe and passage - giving aids and training methods to be used for each movement or exercise.
