Editorial Reviews: Product Description When you approach a fence, do you hold your breath? As your horse covers the last few strides, do you see a distance, or do you see a disaster? Jumping doesn't have to be frightening. Learning to ride with confidence over fences is like learning to swim with confidence: You may never make the Olympics, but you can learn to perform competently, safely, and consistently. After all, riding is supposed to be fun, not a continuing episode of ?Fear Factor.? Building confidence is best done systematically, beginning with fundamentals and working logically toward more advanced skills. Even if you?ve been jumping for years you?ll find that revisiting the basics improves your skills. That?s why we?ll start with a review of your position and flat work. Fixing problems there is guaranteed to help your jumping. You?ll then graduate to exercises over poles on the ground (even if you've never jumped before, you can do them with ease), before graduating to work over fences. By the time you've completed the work of the last lesson, you'll be ready to put in a confident?and competitive--round over a hunter course. Our progress from first to last will be so gradual and so logical that you'll never have the feeling it?s ?beyond you.? Provided you follow every step along the way taking no shortcuts?you should never have to feel unsafe or out of control. In fact, since you're going to judge your own progress, there's no reason to do anything you?re uncomfortable with. If you feel over-faced by a new exercise, simply drop back to familiar work until your confidence is restored. We're not working against a deadline; what's important is that you master every step thoroughly before moving on to the next one. Follow this program faithfully, at your own pace, and you'll never have a bad fence again.

Customer Reviews: Building Confidence Over Fences! September 8, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful The best book ever written for the average rider. Simple, concise and yet well explained. I thought it was so good I bought a copy for my sixteen year old niece. Very Helpful March 20, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful I have really enjoyed this book. It has simple, straightforward exercises I can do on my own. After some bad experiences, this book has really helped me move forward. I would just like more exercises to build upon. I wouldn't know January 11, 2007 0 out of 15 found this review helpful The 1 rating is for the confusion of this order. I have received notification that the book was out of print; mailed; then that I had cancelled the order...I have no clue what has happened to the book I have ordered. It would be nice to be able to truly give a review of it!! I have not found a way to contact anyone about this, though I have tried. For Jumping, this is a MUST HAVE book August 13, 2006 5 out of 5 found this review helpful This book paid for itself in its first lesson, fixing lead changes...it worked straight from the start. AWESOME.
