Review:
“Even the best riders know what it’s like to hit a learning plateau– a time when, no matter how hard you work, you seem to get nowhere. Such interruptions in a rider’s progress often stem from a false or imprecise understanding of what he or she is trying to do, or the lack of a key image that could put things together, working in synchrony. For the rider who needs either or both of these (and who does not, from time to time?), Sally Swift’s Centered Riding will prove indispensable. Wonderfully explicit in explaining and showing what should work how, Centered Riding is also wonderfully imaginative in finding just the right psychological images to help go beyond the mere mechanics. A work of truly remarkable originality and ingenuity, it cannot fail to help many riders attain their present goals, and then move ahead to set higher ones.”–William Steinkraus, Chairman, U.S. Equestrian Team, Inc., Olympic Gold Medalist, Show-jumping, 1968, Mexico City”.

Good
Sally does a great job at teaching this critical aspect of riding. My child has leaped ahead and understands the dynamics of horse and rider together.

Best book on centered riding
This is really the only decent book on how to ride centered. The only problem is that the imagery is more confusing than it is helpful at least for me.
