This set of rider warmup flashcards is designed for EAS professionals but can be utilized for riders of all ages and abilities. Printed on heavy stock and laminated for protection, secured with a removable O-ring so cards can be easily swapped out. For an added challenge, select appropriate cards for your lesson plan, then hand one set of cards to each rider in your group lesson and have them pick the warmup(s) for the day. Great for riders who do best with mirroring and visual learning.

As always, use your best judgment when pairing exercises and movements with riders and equines. Be sure to school your equines in these movements prior to your lessons and, ideally, in the same tack and equipment the riders will be using. The use of safe equine handling practices is always recommended, including the use of a horse leader for any movements involving hands-free rein use. The images on the front of flashcards are intentionally free of text so you can scale the instruction for each rider's ability and skill level. The written description on the back of each card is for suggested use only.
