The Pony Club Manual of Horsemanship is the essential guide to horse and pony care and riding, trusted by generations of riders of all ages. Drawing on the expertise of The Pony Club Training Committee, coaches, veterinarians, saddlers and loriners, this iconic publication brings together the very best in modern horsemanship. Having sold over a million copies in English alone, the Manual of Horsemanship has been completely rewritten and is now presented in three volumes: Fundamentals, Progress and Mastery. Book 2 Progress builds on the essentials of working with a horse or pony, developing a deeper understanding of how equines learn, how riders refine their skills, and how strong, mutually beneficial partnerships are created. It introduces more technical aspects of care and management, while reinforcing safe, thoughtful, and enjoyable horsemanship. The Manual of Horsemanship complements the wide range of mounted and unmounted activities offered by The Pony Club, supported by an internationally recognised system of competency tests and over one hundred achievement badges. As a youth charity, The Pony Club inspires learning through a shared passion for horses and ponies, developing confidence and life skills in a supportive environment built on Fun, Friendship, Horsemanship and Sport.
