The Bit and the Reins
Developing Good Contact and Sensitive Hands

GERHARD KAPITZKE

Regardless of riding discipline, a physical and psychological harmony between horse and rider can only be fully realized if a means of communication between partners is established, a need which has led to the development, over time, of bridles, bits, and reins. In this book, renowned horseman Gerhard Kapitzke clarifies the important role of these frequently misused items of tack, illustrating how establishing an independent seat and allowing the evolution of a common balance, rather than forcing a particular head carriage, will produce a comfortable, happy horse and unhindered lines of communication.
