This book is for Horse lovers and riders who wish to learn and understand better how the horse's body works under a rider and how best to enhance and develop that body so we put the horse's welfare first at all times and never damage or break down our horse through the ridden work that we do. It explains in depth the posture that the horse should work in to carry a rider with ease and how we should all achieve that posture.
Mary explains well the pain and the discomfort that horses can suffer when being ridden with undetected problems and seeks to share much information to those who ride to be able to avoid these damaging scenarios.
Mary seeks to help those who read this book to understand how to be in Tune with their horse mentally, and physically and to hear and listen to what is being said by the horse.
