"In this DVD, Jane provides an excellent tutorial which outlines the many benefits a lungeing program can offer horses of every level and discipline. Jane provides a thorough explanation of technique and equipment that will benefit horsemen from novice to expert." Bruce Kueiss DVM of Mission Equine Associates, Santa Barbara, CA.

"Just watched some of your lungeing video. What a great instructional tool."

"I very much enjoyed watching your DVD on Lungeing for Longevity. It certainly expanded my knowledge of what can be done on the longe line."

DVD - A Bit of Understanding

As a clinician and a judge I have often found that by correcting the fit or changing the type of snaffle, what was thought to be a training issue either disappeared or was dramatically improved. Many riders simply don't know to look inside the horse’s mouth..

The DVD follows a simple format showing how to fit a variety of snaffles into four very different horse’s mouths. There is some great footage of the inside of horse's mouths.

Comments
"I was amazed at the information in DVD. I knew to check the outside of a horse's mouth to see if the bit fitted, but I had no idea to look inside. Amazing to see the Arab with the thick tongue!"
Debbie Oquist Trainer, CA

"I loved this DVD and have shown it to all my trail riding friends."

Jane Armour teamed up with Anna Twinney, a Natural Horsemanship expert for this lecture DVD on how to create a step-by-step program to achieve your goals. They offer a unique combination of Classical European training and Natural Horsemanship. Anna provides insights into the non-verbal language of the horse and their family dynamics.

"Listening to you talk about riding made me want to get back on a horse."

"The way you talked about sensing the horse's movement and relaxing in the saddle sounded like it would be good for my back. You made it sound like a dance."

What a truly wonderful and very much needed book !! It clearly and intuitively carries us through the influential and impacting world of horses. It is a useful and necessary guide and companion for trainers, parents, owners, teachers, young riders, everyone would benefit from reading this book, every Barn should have a copy of this!! It really shows just how horses can guide and uplift and accompany a child through all of life's stages and challenges. To bring harmony and fulfillment and a great sense of self worth and accomplishment to the young rider. I highly recommend this book to all.

I believe the information in this book is crucial for any parent and children's instructor to read. This forward came from my own son, whose riding experiences are told throughout Horseoneship. "That confidence which I gained as a young boy has been crucial throughout my life. I no longer ride competitively; instead I graduated in Electronic Engineering and am now working in industry. The life lessons that I gained from horses under the guidance and following of my mother have turned that little boy into a successful man. I hope that whoever reads this book has a long and successful career – not only in the equine field, but in life as well.
