A Fresh Perspective, Backed by Experience


Connecting the dots to the root cause of riding problems

My blog provides education and practical advice to help you see riding from a different perspective. Whether you are looking to refine your riding skills, or have symmetry/postural problems or injuries or pain that affect your riding.

With a holistic approach to riding and movement, my blog offers thought-provoking insights into how we influence our horse’s posture and movement. The hidden causes behind common riding challenges, and how your riding corrections can often be the symptom and not the root cause.

With over 25 years of experience as a therapist, I also share expert tips to enhance your own and your horse’s movement and health. Recognize harmful training techniques before they cause issues and prevent injuries in both horse and rider.

 
Teamwork how the body works as one unit

The body works in patterns not parts

The horse and rider’s body work as one interlinked unit, both externally and internally all the time. Separating and spot treating areas to develop will fail. For every action there are reactions, connections happening throughout the body. When you think in this way, it makes understanding and developing your own and the horse’s body so much easier
