When riding in a bare dressage area, it can be very easy to get stuck trotting around the outside track, repeating the same exercises and patterns over and over again. To help you spice things up a bit, we have put together 30 dressage exercises complete with diagrams and examples of how you can vary the exercises to meet your horse’s level of training. …and since this book is pocket-sized, you can take it with you wherever you go!
This is a neat little book with a lot of good exercises. However, I wish each exercise noted the particular benefits, or had an index for if you wanted to work on a particular skill. I don't think all of the definitions and everything were really necessary since it seems unlikely that anyone would be buying this book and able to do the exercises in it if they weren't at least that familiar with dressage. I would have preferred those pages be taken up with which exercises help with what (e.g., straightness, canter, etc.).
