With this new translation of the 2nd expanded edition from 1905, the long out-of-print work "Natural Riding" by Otto de LaCroix will be available to everyone for the first time in English.

"Natural Riding" describes a horse-friendly training in which the anatomy and individual physical conditions of each horse are recognized as natural and unchangeable. These natural characteristics should be taken into account throughout the entire training for the horse's well-being.

In eight chapters, Otto de LaCroix highlights important points of natural horse training, such as

  • the horse's back and its importance for the horse's gait
  • the rider's aids
  • balance
  • side lessons in dressage
  • hard/soft side of the horse
  • natural crookedness of the horse
  • collection and the rider's aids to achieve it

Even today, the findings of the honorable riding master have lost none of their importance for horse-friendly training and should serve as a guide for every horse trainer.
