Using vivid, highly imaginative images, plus a thorough knowledge of human and equine anatomy, this revolutionary—now classic—work enables every equestrian to reassess habitual responses, ride in natural positions, and break through frustrating plateaus. "Indispensable...wonderfully explicit.... A work of truly remarkable originality and ingenuity."—William Steinkraus, author of Reflections on Riding and Jumping

"This is the most revolutionary set of concepts to hit the riding world since Caprilli found the best way to jump."—The American Quarter Horse Journal 224 pp • 8 x 9 1/2 • 187 b/w illustrations

Centered Riding is not a style of riding as are hunter seat and Western. Rather, it is a way of re-educating a rider's mind and body to achieve greater balance in order to better communicate with the horse. Now, more than a decade after Sally Swift's revolutionary first book Centered Riding, she has written another that teaches riders all of her new concepts that have evolved since Centered Riding's inception.

“…a worthy companion to its classic predecessor…”—Horse & Rider

“Not a book to be read, but a book to be lived in…destined also to become a classic and a staple on the shelf of committed riders.”—The Horsemen’s Voice
