Dressage school : a sourcebook of movements and tips / Britta Sch©œffmann ; translated by Reina Abelshauser.
"In this fantastically detailed and uniquely organized reference, readers discover the what, the how, and, most importantly, the why of more than 100 dressage movements. Color photographs of riders of various levels and on different breeds of horse show how each movement should look when ridden correctly. Not only is each movement clearly defined, but explanations include common mistakes and how to avoid them, as well as the benefits of each exercise and how it contributes to the 'bigger picture' of the dressage training scale... Throughout, emphasis is placed on the horse as an individual and how it is the rider's responsibility to learn to customize movements and lessons to benefit any horse, with his particular physical and psychological characteristics in mind. Practical and easy-to-follow, this valuable resource provides explanations in seconds that will last a lifetime of rides."--From publisher's description.
