About the Author

DR GERD HEUSCHMANN trained as a Bereiter (master rider) in Germany before qualifying for veterinary study at Munich University. There he specialized in equine orthopaedics for two years before accepting a post as the head of the breeding department at the German FN, which he eventually left to start his own practice in Warendorf. Along with Klaus Balkenhol and other prominent figures in the dressage community, Dr Heuschmann is a founding member of 'Xenophon', an organization dedicated to 'fighting hard against serious mistakes in equestrian sport' (www.xenophon-classical-riding.org).

Reviews

"This is a very important book for riders because Heuschmann addresses the current tendency to derail classical dressage riding." --"USDF Connection "(March 14, 2011)
