EASTERN EQUERRY, July 2002
As I read Schaffer’s book, I was pleased that he began his work with a chapter
titled "Partners." Regardless of the chosen discipline, what else is there
between horse and rider?

Dressage Today
It
brings the art of riding closer to the reader by demystifying traditional
concepts through colorful language, humor and clear illustrations.

USDF Connection
says "Although it's
written for riders of all disciplines, Right From the Start's simple, jargon
free explanations are bound to appeal to dressage riders..."

Horse and Rider
says, "The beauty
of his program is that it can be used to start a youngster or to re-school
an older horse. ... Study the book more closely and you'll discover
that Schaffer's training principles do indeed apply to all disciplines."

The American Quarter Horse Journal" Right from the Start lives up to it's title in every way. ...explains how to develop correct, fluid movements... " See the entire review
Horse news " His explanations of the feelings that certain movements elicit are imaginative and true-to-life. ... thought-provoking, insightful and worth reading." See the entire review
A well written book with a lot of good and honest advice. A book written by a horseman for horsemen... or do we have to be politically correct and call them horsepersons? Congratulations.
Best wishes,

Thank you so much for written this book. It has helped me tremendously. I now believe I truly understand what a half-halt is!See others and write your own review!!

I loved your book and was amazed how my notes from your clinics outlined the book. Your clinics were very complete and left me with lots to do after you were gone and a training system to follow forever.

For years I have struggled with the concept of contact and what it feels like....your exercises and description were simple and easily understood and in just one ride I saw the difference and had a much happier horse.
