The Rider's Aids

Demonstrates how a rider signals a horse to move or change direction using natural aids (voice, legs, hands, and seat) and artificial aids (whip and spurs). Illustrates how, at first, aids are employed in conjunction with voice commands, which are gradually decreased until the aids are used alone. Emphasizes correct application of the aids stressing steady rein contact, careful use of the seat, and clear use of the leg. Shows the use of aids in combination to make transitions between the paces and to lengthen and shorten steps. Includes an introduction by HRH, The Princess Anne, Mrs. Mark Phillips based on her own practical knowledge and experience.
