Look at the difference in this rider! Same horse, same day, just a few small changes to her position.

So many of us have lessons and school, but we don't often work on our own bodies in between. That's where I come in. Your position starts off the horse, and when you understand where your balance should be, you feel more confident and your horse feels it too.

My Introductory Series is four short sessions, a mat and about ten minutes. It's for anyone who rides, from beginners to top level. I want you to feel comfortable in your body and enjoy your horse.

£27 and it's yours for life.

Your horse feels everything your body does, long before it reaches the reins.

I've put together a free short guide to the three foundations I come back to with riders at every level, from grassroots to the Paralympic pathway:

• Alignment: finding a neutral pelvis before you mount
• Breathing: a simple exercise that settles you and your horse
• Core connection: a quiet cue you can use in the saddle, without gripping

Each one comes with a quick check you can try at the yard today.

Zoom for horse riders. Improve your riding. I’ll be teaching a Pilates for riders zoom class every Wednesday 6.30pm - 7.15pm beginning 14th October. We’ll run through some common challenges with your riding for example why do my heels come up and an exercise to help. How to improve nerves by using breathing exercises. How to improve balance using strengthening and balance exercises. I’ll also do a brief check in at end for any questions if needed. Would love to have you. My classes are fun with simple exercises and will suit any rider. link below ➡️ https://payhip.com/b/VBQ3U

Let’s talk SELF CARRIAGE ➡️ This young client of mine is doing a great job with her 4 year old. She has begun asking for a little flexion from the horse then using a little give and retake with the inside rein to ask the horse to balance for herself. Once the horse has more balance in this outline the rider will then feel more confident to soften the elbows and lift the hand slightly. But… both rider and horse throughout this process must maintain self carriage. If the rider begins balancing off the horse or the horse begins balancing off the rider they will not be able to achieve a consistent balanced outline. Everyone talks about the horse having self carriage but unless the rider has self carriage it is not possible for the horse to maintain self carriage. How do we achieve self carriage as riders? We work on our own mobility, strength and balance off the horse. If you’d like to know more about self carriage and becoming a more balanced rider copy and paste the link ⬇️ You’re welcome 🤣💪🏻👏🏻 https://payhip.com/b/nGfYW
