Riders today place great importance on a varied training routine. They love working in a circus style and are thrilled when their horses follow them freely during groundwork. Any horse can learn these skills, regardless of its training focus. Monika Hannawacker describes in this book the fundamentals of free work, from targeted leading exercises to coming when called and free following. She also explains how to teach your horse small show tricks, including yawning, laughing, sticking out its tongue, retrieving, rolling out a carpet, or crossing its legs.
