Since Caprilli and so-called "natural riding" there have not been any new systems or ideas worth note in Equitation; but with the creation of Unified learning on Rosario Cosentino's horses, equitation has finally reached a higher level, achieving a scientific-professional image and approach. These manuals, whilst not neglecting the classic concepts of horse-riding offer an up-to-date base with the latest rules and scientific assessment, offering the future rider and trainer the right notions of the so-called basic school, giving them the knowledge to then tackle dressage and the figures of the advanced school. For the first time in a book on horse-riding a psycho-cognitive profile of the horse’s "personality" is given, delineating the atavistic and historic aspects of this animal, which only by understanding and entering into its psychology can be loved and understood, dialoguing with him in a non-verbal language, entering into a man-horse relationship which leads us to develop an increasingly loyal and understanding rapport. If it's true that knowledge eliminates fear in man by giving him a sense of equilibrium and security, all this will undoubtedly lead us to establish a relationship which will enable us to achieve the results that a good manual always sets out to achieve sooner and better. My particular merit is that of having given a new face to modern horse-riding, making it scientific and introducing a clear simple, non-coercive system, for training horses.

The author
By starting from the beginning these books and dvd reveal the secrets, tricks and know-how needed to buy a horse without making mistakes but learning how to identify its defects. In addition they go through all the stages of development and growth which every rider has to experience with his horse, regardless of the type of mount which he then decides to pursue. In the aim of including in a single book all the best techniques and strategies needed to achieve the correct posture when horse-riding. As of now these manuals are the absolute top sellers in the world of modern Equitation as well as being the only ones in their sector which explain clearly, simply and naturally the best way of training horses without coercion of any sort. In fact they tackle the issue of training horses in full, starting from and providing the necessary information on the BASIC SCHOOL, ADVANCED SCHOOL, DRESSAGE AND ADVANCED CIRCUS scHOOL. The manuals are centred around the personalised system and Rosario Cosentino’s Experimental Theory of the psychology and training which goes by the name of unified learning, and which reveals all the psycho-cognitive secrets for understanding and having a good relationship with horses, using so-called non-verbal communication based on a natural system of learning and training centred on stimuli and therefore light years away from any coercion or ill-treatment of the horse.

First you need to learn the thing and then try to do it well"
My hope is that after reading these Manuals and putting them into practice you will give me the credit for what I have done and for the work I have dedicated and the time I have invested with YOU and for YOU.
