Customer Reviews

It is a good starting place for freestyle to music

I am an Intro level dressage rider, with high aspirations! I got this book for some insight into how to start planning my future "musical freestyle." It is very precise and helpful for a novice like me, and I highly recommend it for anyone trying to plan their musical debut. It tells how to start, what kinds of music to consider, how to align the music with your horse's gaits and rhythm, and even offers a few asides, like the fact that your entry music should be dramatic, like the Star Wars theme, because it doesn't count anyway and it will get the judge's/audience's attention! Excellent resource!

Dancing With Your Horse

I would recommend this book to people who like dancing with their horses. I happen to have an artistic streak in my blood and have won four state ribbons for freestyle horse dancing. This is a great book for beginners and experts alike. It starts from the basic steps all the way to double ronde-jambe axel loup.
