Description

Don't let your back come between you and your horse!

New from the author of the best-selling Balance in Movement, Susanne von Dietze. The book is geared at achieving a healthier experience for both rider and horse, this guide to riding position focuses on the back and its importance in riding techniques. Addressing a complex interaction that is often forgotten, the book explains how a rider's back--in constant motion when seated on a horse--becomes one of the main channels of communication between horse and rider. Through anatomical lessons and exercises, it also teaches riders how to build stability by positioning their backs in the center of the horse and improve mobility and control of the back in motion. A detailed training plan shows how to achieve a more effective and attractive riding position and how to deepen the connection between horse and rider
In the 45 minuted DVD, von Dietze explores how the back is at the heart of every movement of the rider on horseback—and yet it is too often a weak point for a living being who spends most of his or her time sitting down. She provides more than 50 practical exercises, both in the arena and on the longe line, for “back-friendly” training. The DVD also offers many practical tips to improve “feel” while moving your own back in a better way. You’ll discover how to work around your body’s weaknesses and use “positive” training to prevent straining—invaluable knowledge for every rider and trainer.
