The Somatic Rider Series: 'The Posture & Alignment' Workshop |
| Print | |
|
These workshops are dedicated to riders and aimed at the everyday rider as much as for those whose aspirations are to be the elite rider. This is for you if you want to develop skill, body awareness, harmonious movement patterns to absorb and direct the horse with elegance and fluidity, developing yourself by working with you as the individual and unique whole that you already are!
We will take an in-depth look at body structure and function with the aim of developing our skill in the use of our own body for riding. These workshops will be highly practical and experiential in finding your own form. These lessons are not an outside-in approach but an inside-out one! Instead of making constant external corrections to your position by ‘trying’ to make yourself sit well or differently we will involve ourselves in developing good organisational patterns of the body and removing old, habitual holding or tension patterns.
