HENRIQUES, PEGOTTY

Balanced Riding a Way to Find the Correct Seat

Gaithersburg, MD: Half Halt Press, Inc, 1987. First American Edition. Hardcover. ISBN: 0939481014. Cover is rust colored with gold lettering on spine. Pages are clean and tight. Extensively illustrated with b/w photos and drawings. Some of the chapters are: The Saddle: It's Importance and Influence; Fundamental Problems; Rein Aids; Lungeing the Rider; When the Brain Gets in the Way. Excellent book for helping any rider objectively learn about correct position, how and why you should ride a certain way, and exercises to achieve these improvements. I especially like the chapters on the influence of the saddle and the brain [who hasn't had rides that were adversely affected by getting into the 'try too hard' mode? ]. ; B&W Illustrations; 6 1/4 x 9 1/2; 160 pages; Cover has slight bumping and 3 shallow dimples on front.. Very Good+ with no dust jacket .
