Participating riders receive :
-
Saturday night welcome reception with light fare and lectures on the theory behind rider biomechanics,
saddle fit for horse & rider, and the benefits of equine acupressure & massage.
Each attendee will receive a packet of educational material supporting everything that will
be covered in the following two days of the clinic.
-
Two private rider biomechanics lessons based on the latest models of learning theory
to help integrate not only the "what" and "why" of effective riding but most importantly how to
reproduce the effectiveness of highly skilled riders in their own bodies
-
Two small group pilates mat classes to help activate and stabilize the rider's core and assist the rider's body towards independent movement of all limbs for more effective coordination of the aids while riding
-
One equine massage and acupressure session for their horse to make sure their energy is flowing and their bodies are feeling strong and supple.
-
A copy of The Equestrian Journal (Combination edition) to record each experience with their horse on their journey to improving memory, unlocking knowledge, achieving goals, fulfilling potential, & strengthening their partnership with their horse.
Lunch will be included both Saturday and Sunday with brief "deep dive" lectures on saddle fit topics and journaling for the equestrian. Riders of all disciplines will benefit from this clinic.
