Safe Jumping
Hilo Lecturer Sarah Blanchard published Jump with Joy: Positive Coaching for Horse and Rider.
Understanding the concepts of jumping benefits both rider and horse in any equestrian discipline. With a logical, step-by-step progression, purely positive training methods, simple exercises, a conversational tone and lots of photos and diagrams, this book helps any rider aged 13 or over master the complex tasks in safely learning to jump.
Jump with Joy guides aspiring riders with a green horse from the first jump to riding a challenging course in a show ring, building confidence all along the way.
Jump with Joy: Positive Coaching for Horse and Rider is available from the publisher’s website.
