Good Posture tip – Riding or Driving

29 July 2009 3 Comments

This tip is thanks to my friend Benjamin, who has beautiful posture. Here I explain how I use it to remind myself during driving and riding.

In addition, remember to LOOK UP while riding, and feel what you horse is doing. Because of the survival instinct, many trainers (myself included) spend too much time looking down at the horse’s neck because we want to keep on eye on what the horse is doing. When I ride at Saddleridge Stables where we all share the arena, it provides great practice for looking up because you had better watch where you are going to prevent a crash into another rider.
