Product code:MLHorses
It is no secret that many little girls fall victim to "horse craziness," and childhood fantasies are often filled with long-maned ponies, riding bareback, and winning blue ribbons at horse shows. Those little girls eventually grow up, and while some of them manage to make horses a part of their life despite the inevitable changes that correspond with aging, others give up the dream in the face of real life challenges: A career, a family, and a budget.
But what happens when the nest is empty and the career has afforded a little extra money in the second half of life? Many women are searching for a new passion and purpose, as well as a form of healthy exercise, and rediscovering horses is the perfect path to fulfillment. This unique book is the guide women need to get in the saddle - whether for the first time ever, or just the first time in a long time. They'll find valuable advice from doctors, sports psychologists, personal trainers, and of course, riding instructors, helping them determine the best way to make horses a significant part of the rest of their life.
