Product Description
Written by an expert clinician and judge, this is the first truly comprehensive manual on training horses and riders for hunter seat competitions. The opening chapters describe the best training methods, from flatwork and walking courses to advanced jumping exercises involving cavalletti and gymnastics, all set within a sound overall training program. The technical aspects of judging are covered in later chapters, with full details on scoring for all classes, including conformation, under saddle, hunter over fences, equitation on the flat, and equitation over fences. A final round of hints and tips for show day provides an insider's look at what officials are really thinking as they write their judge cards.

A Must Have for the Training Library November 28, 2009

I had previously used Anna Jane's book on Judging Hunter Seat Equitation and loved it - this book surpasses that one! The photographs are excellent, descriptive, and complete the narrative. The line drawings are an excellent way to assist students in understanding what we are trying to convey. The explanations of correct execution of the tests are superb. I also coach an interscholastic riding team and testing is required, so I have begun using these explanations to enhance the weekly work. I have recommended this book to other trainers and my riding students and will continue to share it with others.

Anna Jane's updated "Guide to Hunter Seat" builds on her previous two books. Her systematic approach begins with the basics and smoothly transitions through the steps to become a more proficient rider. The judging section is not just for judges, it helps prepare the rider for the ring by exploring performance and skills through the judge's eyes. There are many valuable topics related to solving problems with both the rider and horse. All of this is supported by an array of illustrations and spectacular color images demonstrating the proper movements. This is an excellent guide for riders at any level and provides the tools to successfully train and compete.
A must have for anyone who rides hunters and equitation! September 6, 2009

I host monthly horse shows at my farm (Rivermont Farm) in NW GA and several years back I noticed one of my judges had a book sitting in front of her titled "Judging Hunters and Hunter Seat Equitation". This was the first time I was introduced to Anna Jane White Mullin. This judge told me her book was a must have for anyone in the hunter world. I began reading Anna Jane's books from that point on and have highly recommeneded them to my students and friends in the horse world. Anna Jane has such a wonderful way of explaining everything to where anyone can understand. I have no doubt you will not be disappointed in any of Anna Jane White Mullin's books!

According to the publisher: "Based on her acclaimed Winning and complemented by the inclusion of the recently revised version of Judging Hunters and Hunter Seat Equitation (to date the only book of its kind, now completely re-photographed in full color), The Complete Guide offers instruction to horsemen of every level. Featuring a complete discussion of USEF tests, rules and requirements, hundreds of color photos including today's top riders, never before has such a complete text on these highly regarded disciplines been compiled."
