Awaken your full riding potential and Enhance performance!

I often hear horse owners say. “I look after my horse, but not myself.” I understand time and the cost of owning a horse can lead you to neglect yourself. Equestrians, we’re known for battling through pain and injuries and;

• Postural issues which pull, push, or throw you out of alignment when you ride.

• Or maybe it’s those subtle corrections you just can’t master.

• Aches, pains and restrictions can prevent your body from doing what you want in the saddle. Sometimes, it even feels like you’re fighting against it.

• Working on your horse’s performance but neglecting your own.
