Doma Vaquera

By Edwin Van Der Vaag

Working Equitation and Doma Vaquera simply explained

The Doma Vaquera is a particularly intense riding technique, which was used in the seventeenth century by Spanish shepherds to brave the rough and often dangerous terrain of Andalusia. To this day, it has become a technique that, more than any other, proves how strong the bond can be between two individuals and, consequently, between riders and their horses. The work riding style has become a dance that equally delights spectators all over the world with a particularly wild and yet so elegant technique that cannot be seen anywhere else.

But how exactly can this way of riding be learned, which today finds more and more enthusiasm and accordingly more and more interested people? Which horse breeds are particularly well suited for the quite difficult work and which expression is really the right one? Is it worth buying a traditional Doma Vaquera saddle, and what are the rules to be observed at a tournament?

The contents of the book are as follows:
- Historical background
- Doma Vaquera - the traditional riding technique
- The right horse
- The equipment
- Tournaments and events
- Working Equitation

This book is written for all those who find interest in reviving this old working equitation. However, this can raise some questions and especially young riders who have really fallen in love with this technique are often left in despair. To ensure that this is not the case, this book aims to answer all the necessary questions and encourage riders to throw themselves into this fascinating world.
