| QUOTES from the Jan/Feb 2010 ISSUE: MY TEACHERS | "Let a horse enjoy his work. A young horse needs to have freedom thru the body and a long neck, slowly developing the right muscles in the right places." Manolo Mendez FROM ARTICLE: Balance & Rhythm in the Young Horse | "Being with horses over the years, I have learned to be less quick to anger or judge, to be more respectful, to think out of the box and to be flexible, and I have learned to forgive." Caroline Larrouilh FROM ARTICLE: Horse or Rider, Who is the Teacher? | "A knowledgeable rider with the right attitude will neither trouble nor break down a horse. When done in the right spirit, riding should improve the personality of the rider, causing new virtues to emerge while strengthening old ones." Charles de Kunffy FROM ARTICLE: Classical Horsemanship: Dressage Needs no Reinventing | "Beyond the performance of classical movements, true dressage is stamped by the yearning that the horse and the rider shared for its practice, the harmony of the performance and the aesthetic emotion it transmits to the spectator." Jean Philippe Giacomini (J.P.) FROM ARTICLE: Masterful Trainers, Schoolmasters & Inquisitive Students | "The old masters always emphasized the importance of the thinking rider, because a rider who doesn't think, will never be a good trainer, either." Dr. Thomas Ritter FROM ARTICLE: Learning to Learn | "It is interesting to watch a person jogging using regular, deep breathing as this enables them to maintain a steady rhythm and energy within each stride. Every athlete can enhance performance, both mentally and physically by using lateral breathing." Jenny Rolfe FROM ARTICLE: The Rider Position and Seat | "A rider with 'good basics' is prepared for advanced work in various equestrian sports, and horse training." Linda Benedik FROM ARTICLE: Longeing the Rider for a Perfect Seat: What are the Eight Objectives? | "The first thing I did before choosing a trainer was to evaluate my goals." Cindy Fletcher - Notes from the Amateur Perspective: How to Choose a Trainer |
