Linda Tellington-Jones is the internationally recognized equine expert who developed the Tellington Method approach to healing, training, and communicating that can be learned by riders of all levels. Linda has worked with Klaus Balkenhol, Ingrid Klimke, Carl Hester and Kyra Kyrklund.
Frankly, our riding improved after absorbing this book. We rode
with greater mindfulness and clearer intent. ... Bottom line: This
book is a keeper.

With 182 colour photos and 43 diagrams, this book includes Linda's
look at the Classical Training Scale, her tips for harnessing the
power of intent, and the guiding principles of her Circle of
Well-Being – tips to keeping dressage horses healthy, happy, and
performing their best. She shares more than 20 problem-solving
stories, featuring world-class riders, trainers and horses."--Lone
Star Horse Report "While Tellington-Jones' book is explicitly
oriented toward dressage, her insight into communication and
understanding how the horse responds is essential to any equestrian
discipline."--Mid-South Horse Review
While Tellington-Jones' book is explicitly oriented toward
dressage, her insight into communication and understanding how the
horse responds is essential to any equestrian discipline.
The book was wonderful. ... Linda's techniques are proven ways for
riders to communicate and bond with their horses, making them a
combined team, loyal to each other and better together.
