Four Steps to Riding Success
Karin Blignault has combined theory and experimentation to develop a system of training (and teaching) that is straightforward, fast and brings real results.
The methods described in this book teach riders to achieve rhythm, balance, suppleness and the round flexor frame in their horses – and quickly. Most riding books, including those by classical masters, focus on ‘what to do’ rather than ‘how to do’. This book is different. For example, Karin explains how you can apply your body in riding, rather than focusing primarily on your body position, and thus your riding position automatically becomes correct.

When Two Spines Align Dressage Dynamics by Beth Baumert Hardback
Within riding exists a fundamental conflict of interest: The rider needs to have control— confidence depends on ability to control the balance of own body as well as that of a very powerful horse. The horse, by nature, needs to feel free—free in both mind and body to express himself through physical movement.
Readers will discover how to use “positive tension” and what the author calls the four physical “Powerlines”—Vertical, Connecting, Spiraling, and Visual—to become balanced and effective in the saddle. Readers will then find ways to understand and manage the horse’s balance and coordination challenges, including the fact that he is inherently crooked and naturally inclined to do too much with his front end and not enough with his hind.
