Beyond The Saddle: Equestrian Biomechanics and Fitness Workshop

Join us to unlock the secrets of optimal rider mechanics and learn ways cultivate strength, balance, and harmony in the saddle. No horse required! This is an unmounted workshop! 

Our workshop kicks off with an insightful introduction to biomechanics, offering a deeper understanding of how your body moves in relation to your horse. From there, we will transition into a stretching sequence carefully crafted to enhance flexibility and refine posture and symmetry, crucial elements for a balanced and effective ride. Next, we will delve into targeted strengthening exercises designed to optimize your performance in the saddle, empowering you to achieve your equestrian goals with confidence.

But it's not all serious business – our workshop incorporates fun interactive partner demonstrations to fine-tune proprioception and alignment. Through hands-on activities, you'll develop a deeper understanding of how subtle adjustments can make a world of difference in your riding.

Learn a bit about the psychology behind breathing and relaxation and its importance in establishing calm, clear, and reassuring communication with your equine partner through specialized breathing exercises. 

Walk away equipped with a comprehensive take-home exercise guide to continue your fitness journey, along with a complementary yoga mat!

Open to any riding discipline.
