Inhand work..... isn't always polework!

Firstly, look at how your horses body moves.
What its capabilities are!
How important it is the way it picks up their feet in walk.
Can they control their own movement,
Dragging a hoof any hoof.
Is engagement apparent/ coordination.
Slow to respond when an aid is applied.
Rigidity when riding (can you keep your hand and leg still when riding)
If you can feel your horse softness when riding.

Wholebody stretching, mobilisation, is also key to improving function throughout the equine body. A pole on the ground.... is simply that.... A pole is a pole on the ground....

Various polework exercises adding gentle varied elevation to help with progression this can encourage change, extension with contraction creating control, correct posture creating free movement.

How important is it to evaluate correct movement within a horse before working with poles is something I establish before thinking about working with poles.

Why do I work with an equine inhand before adding any saddle, girth, rider. You can establish the horses' true movement without rider pressure. If the horse can't achieve a task by itself, how do you expect it to with external pressure. Instead of throwing hurdles in the way... reduce those hurdles, then look for a horses capabilities.

Just because you go around the arena doesn't mean you've changed a thing. Reducing the area you work in creates less body stress, small tasks added, creating the bigger picture. Less will always be more.

Sunday already!! It feels like the week just wizzed by without a second thought...... again, thank you to Lynda Elliott for including my work in the wonderful illustration from Jean Stewart of 26 thoroughbreds. I'm sure there will be many more TB out there with getting a second part to their story. Check out Jeans page The Final Furlong ♡
Dates will be sent out shortly. Yes, there's been a waiting list. Enjoy the rest of Sunday because it will be Monday before we know it, Ax

Let's be more like William, no agenda, non judgemental, live in the moment, as those positive moments matter, just place one foot in front of the other. It's days like these that are positive. Small changes make the bigger picture real...... it's not anyone else's mapping the way ahead. The most important thing is your way ahead..... you'll find the support is always there if you need it. So be more like William ♡

Jo Mccormack Fraser is with Audrey Anderson with Equine Touch Bodywork.

Jo Mccormack Fraser post.

I know a lot people can be sceptical about equine touch and other forms of Bodywork for equines, I use to be untill Audrey started doing work on Lilly she suffered a lot tension due to pain with lamintis etc and Audrey has helped her so much and Lilly loves her sessions.

But few weeks ago Keira's 6month foal Mona just didn’t seem right . I watch her for a couple days , she was pawing at her bucket trying stretch down eat and when she went go milk she start pawing thought it was touch colic but she showing any more sign like rolling. She had her head low all time and looked really stiff when she was turning she was like a board trying to turn and become very depressed looking, felt something just wasn’t right and at this time year it’s always a worry with dreaded Diseases was going through my mind. Audrey was out at Lilly so I ask if she would have a wee look at Mona for us. So Audrey did wee a mini taster session on Mona found few tight spots. Well in the morning hand on heart, truly have say Mona was a different baby she ran up to the fence and shouting on her way which she hadn’t done for good few days. She moved more freely and was so much brighter as the days went on she was back to her full spirit Mona. They tell us in a way when they’re sore , they get sore just like us with our aches and pains.
Thank you Andrey for her brilliant work and all my ponies love having a session. ( first 2 pictures are before tester session and other are other day after Mona's first session) . Abi was also feeling the vibe 😂 🦄

It is an absolute pleasure working with the youngsters, when growing is a factor in behavioural tendencies.

Thank you to Jo Mccormack Fraser Highland pony breeder with Keira's beautiful Mare and foal. I have only had one session previously with Abi going into foal. As she was processing throughout the time I was working with her foal. Ax

Every Retired Race Horse has Two Stories!

Published - Out Now!

Landed on my doorstep yesterday from Lynda Elliott with Boom 💥

October 2023
I was heading out as usual to my first client of the day, the road were all flooded while on my way to Kirriemuir but also equally wondering is this wise. When I received a call, would it be possible to come to a horse right now as hes struggling to walk hadn't moved in over 24 hours.... the vets had been addressing him but he just can't move. I think what you do could /may help. "Can you come?" Your his last chance!
I replied i will have to chat with my clients and reschedule, I'll phone you back..... so i did! im on my way but which did you take as the roads are flooded.
On arrival to Lynda's stables, spoke to the vet as of verbal permission to work with Boom who was looking quite down..... something ive noted over the years horses with their fight or flight response reaction if they can't react to a situation or move they look dull almost worried.... as if this is it....
So started to work over Boom on areas unrelated to where the issue was as ive always said "its not always where you think it is" quote AA.... within about 15- 20 mins Boom walked off.

I'm so grateful to be a part of Boom's ( Instant Return aptly named Boomerang) story. I was gifted and received this wonderful copy as part of Booms chapter which has an aknowledgment "For Audrey" OMG! its the appreciation that speaks volumes from my amazing clients that make my work so valued.
Thank you Lynda Elliott xx

Thank as always to Lynda Elliott with Boom- tastic as I call him.

Also thank you to .goodlands who phoned me that wild wet day back in October 2023 "if its possible could you come"

Check out the wonderful illustration about 25 other thoroughbred each has a chapter. Lovely book thoughtfully put together by Jean Stewart check Jean's FB page ☆The Final Furlong ☆
Thank you to Jean for signing my copy from Lynda Elliott and Boom 💥

The secret within those fascial layers, or is it a secret, or has it always been there right before your eyes, but it's just never been addressed or acknowledged!

Even though you think by riding through an issue, are you creating more tension on the equine body? Actually, it is possible to create the issue or maintain it because you feel you're never getting out of the circle of repetition that's been created. Working tension with tension creates a negative force kicking in the defence mechanism within the tissue structures. Reducing overload is really important to encourage the tissue to open, lengthen, and expand, encouraging the muscles to relax to develop soft and suppleness when equines can contract and extend with ease needs fluidity (fluid) for these layers of FASCIA to creats the slide and glide function effectively..... Whereas the ridgid restricted equines simply find it difficult..... these are the equines that find the tasks you ask uncomfortable, painful, which then creates avoidance, I would say every horse tries its best with its own boundaries, slow reactions, and creating softness.... is suppleness..... encouraging rebalance throughout the equine body brings with it symmetry. If you ask your equine to release to the left or right, rein back with or without a rider and it struggles, ask yourself the question: Where or the the areas of tension, contraction, distortion within the fascial layers...... then tapping into these areas can reduce dan issues..... Gentle persuasion over forcefulness or over asking each question will have success with your equine. Also, time to heal and recover from adjusting structural factors is really important. Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it's not there.... Ax

EQUINE TOUCH CONFERENCE 2026

Hope you are all enjoying these motivational speakers, giving you food for thought.
Time with your horse is time well spent, even if its just for 10 minutes.

If you have time to watch your horses movement how they carry themselves effectively if its not quite right..... train your eye to see the incorrect movement, I recommend doing this without the rider. You can visualise a better picture..... listening is key to progression.

Our speaker tonight is

We can always take something away an equine talk, thinking outside the box

Equine Intuition!!

Equines become Intuitive to the Equine Touch bodywork. As I walked into the stables the Equines were starting to process the release response reaction before I had even placed a hand on them...
Simply because they know what they are about to recieve.
Something to always remember is the horse will take as much or as little as they need from each session.

Listening to your horse is key to understanding their needs to then progress in there work programme.

Less will always receive a more positive outcome. Ax
