Build a Better Athlete! : 16 Gymnastic Exercises for Your Horse by Leslie Webb (2007, Trade Paperback)

Common sense exercises that build the basics at your pace

Safety is a priority and there are good explanations on how you're horse might react and how to stay safe.
The progression with small increments keep me from getting overwhelmed. I can proceed at my pace and have more movements at hand.
