Product Description
by David de Wispelaere (Author)
American Grand Prix rider, David De Wispelaere talks about his life, about the very special horses, and at the same time, holds up a mirror to today's competitive dressage sport. A startling book, which describes a path to listening, and harmonious coexistence with the horse.
David personally tells about his eventful life and about the many special horses that have accompanied and whispered to him. His most interesting conversation partner was his horse Figaro, whom he lost far too soon and to whom this book is dedicated. The essence of his conversation with horses is that they always want to give their best, that false ambition on the part of the rider destroys them, and they want to be trained calmly and with understanding.
"I ask my horses to dance with me, we do not set foot into the boxing ring."
"In dealing with horses, Harmony is paramount."
- David De Wispelaere
