RE Wikipedia: “Vladimir Stanislavovitch Littauer (January 10, 1892 – August 31, 1989) was an influential horseback riding master and the author of books and films on educated riding and the training of horses. As a riding instructor, Littauer was in great demand during his lifetime by professionals and amateurs. He was considered an early, important and controversial advocate of the forward seat riding system during his career. He wrote more than a dozen books between 1930 and 1973 which sparked vivid debates among experienced riders of various backgrounds. He also wrote many articles on forward riding (sometimes referred to as “hunt seat”) for the notable equestrian magazines of his day. His methods continue to be taught at Sweet Briar College and other riding programs.”
