Martin Diggle's main concern in writing this book is to ensure the introduction of novice riders to a safe and effective jumping technique. In his position of co-ordinator of tuition with the Greater London Council Riding Clubs, he has observed a disquieting proportion of riders who do not progress to the stage at which they have the confidence or ability to tackle even a small course of jumps with success. Thus, the purpose of this book is to encourage instructors to examine their own theories and practices, and to abandon any tendencies toward mystique, muddled thinking, erroneous or unsafe instruction.

Martin Diggle has been an author, editor, and avid rider for many years. He has written eight books on riding and is the compiler of the Masters of Equitation series.
