You want your training experiences to be safe and enjoyable for both you and your horse. But maybe you aren't sure what to do and when. In 101 Longeing and Long Lining Exercises you'll find complete ground training lesson plans from square 1 to square 101. Cherry Hill starts with basic in-hand and free longeing lessons, then takes you through the addition of a longe line, cavesson, bridle, surcingle, side reins, saddle, and long lines. You'll learn a wide variety of ground training exercises suitable for both English and Western horses. In-hand section: * Fancy footwork * Whip works * Pitching a wave * Turn on the forehand * Sidepass * Longeing section: * Stop, look, and listen * Outside turns * Inside turns * Whip talk Spirals * Wagon wheels * Bending tune-up * Contact and collection * Long lining section: * Long line lingo * Yin y ang * Figure-8 * Serpentines * Backing * Cavalletti work * Trail obstacles Each of the exercises is laid out with a diagram, step-by-step instructions, and an explanation of its benefits. The exercises progress from the basic skills to more advanced ones, such as counter-canter and flying changes of lead. This book and its companion volume, Longeing and Long Lining the English and Western Horse: A Total Program, give you a solid foundation for helping your horse work in productive form. Average Rating:
 Rating: - A good book for training in hand a horse.This is a very good book for beginning training a young horse, because it haves a lot of simple exercises that could be done with an untrained horse. It begins with simple exercises and continues with exercises that are harder and harder. It is a very good book because with every exercise it explains how to do it and every other thing that horse can do and how to correct this. I find this book very useful for me and my horse. I found out what I did wrong and what I have to do to correct ... Read More Rating: - Great for BeginnersOnly new to the horse training realm and this book with it's well laid out structure and diagrams has been invaluable. It is also easy enough for my 12 year old daughter to understand and use. Rating: - A Must for Every Equestrians BookshelfI can never get enough of books with exercises that challenge both my horse and I. This book is one that every Equestrian should have, whether for training purposes or just getting back in shape. Half of the Exercises are really basic and a waste for an intermediate to advanced rider, but then again I guess all horses can use a few lessons in the refresher courses. The last 30 Exercises focus on long lining which I use on all my younger horses. They advance from driving a horse in a yin yang pattern ...

There are often days when we perhaps don't have the time to ride, but instead of just longeing around on the circle we could be more constructive - this book can help you. I find this book particulary useful when starting young horses. Rating: - good 4 studentsI thought this book is very helpful in teaching people to use the longline.
