Trafalgar Square Books is pleased to announce the publication of Reining Essentials by Sandy Collier. World Champion trainer and rider Sandy Collier provides this indispensable guide of progressive training exercises for the reining horse. Whether green, broke, or “push-button,” every horse will perform more willingly, cleanly, and quickly with work on what she calls the “Seven Essentials”—the foundational basics every riding horse needs. Like no other book out there, Collier breaks down the maneuvers required in a reining pattern and the tricks and techniques for introducing them, perfecting them, and showing them off in competition.
”Sandy understands horse psychology and she knows how to gain a horse’s respect. Enjoy this book—it’s an easy-to-follow, methodical approach to training a performance horse that can’t help but bring success.” —Clinton Anderson, Downunder Horsemanship®
“Reining Essentials will fill you with good ideas and concepts. For anyone who wants to ride, rein, or just get the horses better broke, it’s a wonderful learning experience.” —Al Dunning, World Champion trainer and rider
