Book excerpt: "At its most basic, many think of liberty as playing with a horse without halters, leads, or other tack. True liberty, says Field, is much more than simply removing equipment and stepping outside the pen or arena: it is moving with your horse, communicating only with intention, and creating a seamless, smooth, and rhythmic dance ... Developing communication skills and your relationship with your horse through liberty benefits all that you do with your horse - whether on the ground or in the saddle; whether competing or riding for pleasure. Quick responses to subtle cues, clear aids, and a relaxed and attentive horse ... With Jonathan Field's step-by-step liberty training method, you learn to have a better feel, to reward the horse sooner, and to time your aids just right to ensure you get the response you want. Plus, you discover how to approach things from the individual horse's perspective - an important key to getting a horse to act because he wants to, rather than because he has to"--Publisher's description.
