SUPPLENESS
Soft muscles, ligaments, tendons and joints allow your body to flow with the dynamic movement of your horse.
STRENGTH
Being able to apply the right amount of strength without stiffness or tension.
STABILITY
Good posture begins when your body is in balance with all of your muscles & joints ‘stacked’ on top of each other.
BODY AWARENESS
Connecting to your body, how it feels and how it reacts to the dynamic movement of your horse.
INTEGRATION
This is about bringing together each piece to create flow and harmony.
Finding myself unexpectedly back in the saddle after 25 odd years I soon discovered I had a lot to unlearn and a lot to learn. Mel come alongside to not only help me become one with my Daisy but instruct me on fine tuning my posture so that my horse could transition better. I was absolutely flabbergasted feeling the difference that simple tweaking my posture made to Daisy’s cadence and stability. With these simple tools and developing a Strong Stable Seat, my girl is now a dream to ride – most times!
