Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history of sport in Ireland, locates it within Irish political, social, and cultural history, and within the global history of sport. There are aspects of Ireland's sporting history that are uniquely Irish, but it is a history of play shared with other societies, near and far. This book offers a unique insight into the British Empire in Ireland; it also assesses the relationship between sport and national identity, and the manner in which states make policy in respect of sport. The manner in which sport has been colonised by the media and has colonised it, in turn, is also examined.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horse Speak is not a training method or technique—it is a practical system for “listening” and “talking” to horses in their language, instead of expecting them to comprehend ours. Horse Speak can be used by anyone who works with horses, whether riding instructor, colt starter, recreational rider, or avid competitor. It promises improved understanding of what a horse is telling you, and provides simple replies you can use to tell him that you “hear” him, you “get it,” and you have ideas you want to share with him, too. The result? Time with your horse will be full of what horse trainer and equine-assisted learning instructor Sharon Wilsie of Wilsie Way Horsemanship calls Conversations, and soon the all-too-common misunderstandings that occur between horse and human will evolve into civil discussions with positive and progressive results! Learn Horse Speak in 12 easy steps; understand equine communication via breath and body language; and discover the Four Gs of Horse Speak: Greeting, Going Somewhere, Grooming, and Gone. Practice regulating your intensity, and sample dozens of ready-made Conversations with your horse, as step-by-step templates and instructional color photographs walk you through the eye-opening process of communicating on a whole new level.

Download or read book Raising a Irish Draught Horse written by Chad Bruno and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-12-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was in Ireland that the Irish Draught horse first appeared as a distinct breed. It has a reputation for being adaptable, powerful, and mild-mannered. These horses are bred for a wide variety of equestrian uses, but their primary purpose is in agriculture, particularly as working horses on farms. Among the most distinguishing features of the Irish Draught horses are: - Irish Draught horses are built for hard work, such as plowing fields or pulling heavy loads, due to their strength and stamina. - Extremely adaptable, these horses thrive in a wide range of equestrian activities from show jumping and dressage to eventing and even hunting. They are also bred with other horse breeds in an effort to improve the overall species. - Irish Draught horses have a laid-back and sociable demeanor that makes them great for riding in a variety of settings. They have a reputation for being calm and easygoing. - Conformationally, these horses are typically of good size and proportion, with strong backs and healthy legs. Their broad, short head and large, expressive eyes set them apart. - Coat Color: Irish Draught horses come in various coat colors, including gray, bay, and chestnut, among others. The breed's history can be traced back several centuries in Ireland, where they were developed to meet the agricultural and transportation needs of the time. Despite the fact that their use in farming has decreased as a result of mechanization, Quarter Horses remain a popular breed thanks to their many desirable qualities and their role in the development of other horse breeds. Irish horses come in a variety of forms, including the more common Irish Draught and the more modern Irish Sport Horse. Incorporating the Draught's strength and temperament with the agility of lighter horse breeds, this crossbreed is bred for performance in show jumping, eventing, and dressage.

Download or read book 200+ School Exercises with Poles written by Claire Lilley and published by The Crowood Press. This book was released on 2017-05-31 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses ground-pole training for all disciplines and shows how you can make the most of precious schooling time. It provides quick and easy pole layouts, using just a handful of poles. Different exercises are given for each pole layout, so there is no need to move the poles during a session. Exercises range from the simple to the more intricate, with the inclusion of more transitions, lateral work, raised poles/cavalletti, or riding in a different gait. Claire Lilley explains how these pole exercises can help you to ride with precision and improve your horse's way of going, adhering to the scales of training. You can also use the different layouts to check whether you are sitting straight, turning correctly, and riding transitions and lateral movements properly. She lists common rider faults for each exercise to help riders self-correct if schooling alone. As an experienced trainer herself, Claire knows that this book will prove an invaluable resource for riding instructors, providing a veritable cookbook of ideas for lesson plans. Poles are a great teaching tool, adding variety to every lesson and helping the teacher to explain lessons to the pupil. Teacher's tips are given for each exercise. Claire says: "Try the exercises for yourself and I'm sure you will be amazed at the improvements that can be made both in your riding technique and in your horse's way of going. You will never be bored with schooling again!"

Download or read book How Good Riders Get Good: New Edition written by Denny Emerson and published by Trafalgar Square Books. This book was released on 2020-05-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revised edition of the inspiring bestseller, now in paperback with new good rider profiles! This book is exactly what you need to become a better rider. It's a smart, honest, on-target kick-in-the-pants, guaranteed to rev your engines as you see how a few changes in your life, a few smart choices and strategic moves, can transform you from a run-of-the-mill rider into a good one. How does Denny Emerson know what makes a good rider? For one thing, he is one—he is the only rider in the world to have won both a gold medal in international eventing and a Tevis Cup buckle in endurance. Plus, he's been around great riders, and taught those on their way to becoming great, for over 40 years. How will what Denny knows help you become a good rider? He's boiled the whole thing down into seven broad "Areas of Choice" that determine whether you are a "gonnabe" or whether you'll be stuck in the "wannabe" category for decades. Examine how your choice of riding sport may or may not be the best for who you are and where you live. Find out how those frustrating hurdles known as "life circumstances" don't necessarily hold you back like you think they do. Learn how to build a strong support team by winning people to your cause and choosing the right teachers and mentors. Analyze your physical self (your body, how it is formed and how you care for it) and your intellectual self (your "horse smarts" and how you are adding to them or not) and apply the results to your "gonna-be-good" equation. Take a good hard look at your partner—your horse—and think critically about his ability to help you attain your riding goals. Discover the nine key character traits of successful riders and how you can learn to call each one of them your own. Along the way you'll read the stories of 23 of the world's top riders from different disciplines and sports—including dressage, reining, driving, show jumping, endurance, hunter/jumper, and eventing—and how they "got good" despite the same kinds of challenges and setbacks you face in your own day-to-day riding. You'll get an inside look at their path to success, as well as their very best tips for how to "make it" in the horse industry.
