Reviews

"'Where is an easy-to-understand, systematic approach, which embraces fun and dreams at the beginning end of the scale, and yet dovetails perfectly into launching serious ambitions at the top end of the scale? It's my opinion that The Right Track offers exactly that: a pathway that is safe, is fun, and leads to dressage skills at the "legend" end of the scale.' Heath Ryan, Australian Olympic gold medallist"
