Dressage in Harmony - From Basics to Grand Prix
by Walter A. Zettl
Walter Zettl's classic "Dressage in Harmony" is simply the best book out there for most dressage riders, and their horses will agree. Not only does Herr Zettl cover just about every important detail for dressage training, but he also makes sure that the horse is the rider's primary concern, and he stresses that only correct, classical training is truly the most natural way to ride your horse.

A Book Review:

This is, truly, one of, if not the clearest, most readable books on training dressage ever written. It's just delightful! Warm, sympathetic, and based on the solid foundations that lead to true success in the sport, this book is must reading! As Egon von Neindorf, a recognized master himself, says in the Foreword, "If you are not fortunate enough to be taught by Walter Zettl personally, he gives you in this book a very valuable guide to the art of classical riding. In clearly worked out and easy to understand chapters, he takes you through each step of the training stages, discusses problems that occur, and assists with competent, sensible corrections, from Beginner to becoming a Master. With Walter Zettl's guidance, it is made possible."
