Riding Art of Life

Inviting Mira to use her left hind leg

Yesterday I had a clinic near Odense (Fyn). We discovered so many important things who made a big change!. All the riders develop very very nice during the day and did a great job:-). The riders got tips, exercises, and new feelings with them home which improve their riding and their position in general. Thy got able to sit on the horse in completely balance with no “over-tension” anywhere. And then we saw the the movement of the horse go nicely through the hips, knees, feet, lower-back, chest, shoulders, neck. 🙂

Thanks too all the participants for a great day:-)
