The Equestrian Athlete

This online class explores the concept of riders as athletes!

Riding is not merely a leisure activity; it requires a high level of physical fitness, coordination, and mental acuity. We will be doing a deep dive into the physical demands of riding, common postural faults among riders and how they can significantly impact effectiveness and comfort in the saddle, and recommendations for fitness to improve riding performance.

Viewing riders as athletes not only encourages a deeper understanding of the sport, but also takes horse welfare very seriously promoting longevity in both the rider's and horse's careers.

This class will be recorded.
