12 Myths and Misconceptions of Horsemanship: That Can Prevent You from Becoming the Horseman (Or Woman) You Want to Be

By Barbara Burkhardt

In order to form a partnership with your horse, you need to dedicate yourself to learning about the horse. In this text I hope to add to your knowledge of the horse's physical and mental capabilities and his "natural" responses and physical boundaries. What I intend to do is clear up some of the myths and misconceptions that persist in the world of horsemanship. Oh sure, people have been riding horses for thousands of years - but there are concepts that have sometimes "slipped through the cracks" of equestrian literature. A basic premise is: The more you knowledge you have, the less frustration you will have. Whether you are a weekend rider and want a horse that can take you safely down the trail, or you're a highly competitive show or event rider, or somewhere in between, I want to help you have a better relationship with your horse.
