One of the messages that landed in my inbox after this weeks Applied Rider Biomechanics CPD day ❤️

The thing I love most about this work isn’t creating a perfect position. It’s helping riders understand why things happen and giving them practical tools they can use for themselves and seeing the positive influence it has on the horses way of going as well as the long term benefits to performance and longevity.

Katy went away and applied some of the strategies to her own riding not just coaching and found a lighter, more even contact, a straighter horse and a freer stride.

Not because her horse changed.
Because she understood herself better.

These are the moments that make all the studying, planning and teaching worthwhile. 😍

As indecisive as your girl at Maccers 💁🏼‍♀️

Angled bounces to overlapping poles because who says straightness training needs to be boring!

One thing I see a lot with riders is trying to fix the thing they can SEE, without really understanding what’s causing it in the first place.

An unstable lower leg becomes “heels down”.
A collapsing posture becomes “sit up”.
Loss of confidence becomes “just keep riding”.

But often those things are symptoms, not the root cause.

A lot of riding issues are connected. Rider stability, tension, confidence, biomechanics even down to both horse and riders understanding and application of aids. All feed into each other, which is why so many riders end up feeling stuck or frustrated despite trying really hard.

That’s exactly why I approach things the way I do. Instead of just firefighting symptoms, I want to understand the bigger picture first so we can actually make progress that lasts. It’s not necessarily that what people are doing is wrong, I’m a great fan of 2 point seat work, but if you’re not doing it correctly, your saddle is out of balance or it’s a muscle imbalance issue, your efforts are going to waste.

If there’s something you’ve been trying to solve and want help figuring out what may actually be going on underneath it all and finding a long term solution, book in for a Rider Performance Assessment… check my the link in my bio…

My promise is I only take on a limited number of clients I know I can help and if I think it’s a problem for another professional ie saddle fitter/vet etc I send you their way as we can’t fix it all!

Whether you’re doing circles in a test or turns to a fence, thinking about having a curve of rails either side of you will bring your awareness into both your horses and your own balance.

Alignment & vertical balance can be so easily overlooked as people obsess with their variation of an “outline” as being the goal. But a horse and rider with good balance will be far more likely to stay clear of injuries and produce higher quality work, than that of a crooked horse/rider working in a false frame.
