I'm back and the new series is coming

I realise I've said this before but I am back, 20925 has so far been a bit brutal, but there is light in my diary and so recordings are coming...

Starting this year with some thoughts on what we need to think about when making plans for our horses.

A short episode with something to think about for the new year

In this episode I address the issue that can be so prevalent in winter, or any season that is an extra challenge with horses, how do we stay motivated?

In this episode I discuss the horses brace, and how this can effect the way your aids are responded to, if you are doing the work yet still feel like you are using more pressure than you'd like, whether it be with the legs, the seat or the reins, have a listen. The answer could be here.

In this episode I discuss a few things we need to consider when riding in spurs, and whether we or our riders should really be choosing to ride in spurs. I do not advocate riding in spurs, but I know a lot of people do, I used to also and have since learnt and taken time to think about really what is best. This episode is about explaining what we need to know before making that choice.

A little different but still hugely relevant, in this episode I have a little thought about our responsibility to our horses on how we show up for them. And why they may like us to show up slightly differently.

This is a follow up to last weeks episode about the riders seat, this time addressing the more forward thinking horses and how it is as equally important to think about our own bodies and how our seat functions with these types as it is with the more shut down horses.

In this episode we deep dive into the importance of the riders seat www.alignedequitation.com

I love proprioception, its a long word to say and spell, but its soooo important to riders, in this episode I dive into why its so important and what we need to do about it. www.alignedequitation.com
