the variety of training techniques for working with horses. Unfortunately, not every horse is trained properly in relation to its capabilities and assumptions, which specifies in addition to the anatomy and physiology and to the ethology of the species. The work therefore also mentions the issue of ethics of horse breeding and equitation, Equitation Science.
In addition to the other horse training approaches, there is a part of the work that dedicates to the training approach on the basis of natural communication between horse and human. Natural Horsemanship is gaining popularity between the horse trainers and scientists, who have devoted their work comparing this method with conventional training methods.
