A Fresh Perspective, Backed by Experience


Connecting the dots to the root cause of riding and movement problems

Whether you want to refine your riding skills, address symmetry or postural problems, or injuries or pain that affect your riding.

I explore the hidden causes behind your riding and movement challenges and explain why often riding corrections target the symptom, not the root cause.

Through a holistic approach to riding and movement, my blog offers thought-provoking insights into how we as riders influence our horse’s posture and movement.

With 25+ years as a therapist and movement specialist, I share practical, evidence-based tips to improve rider and horse movement, prevent injuries, and enhance performance and wellbeing.

Learn to recognise and avoid training techniques that can cause long-term 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
