It’s been a long winter for all of us, but hints of spring are right around the corner. Time for horse shows, trail rides and pony clubbing! But after the long winter hiatus, are you also dreading the low back pain, aches in the shoulders, soreness and stiffness most of us endure when first getting back into the saddle?

What can you do to combat all those bad feelings and get in shape fast? The solution is easy: Take a Classical Pilates class for the Equestrian or even better, enroll in a private session to get started even faster.

What exactly is Pilates (pi-lah-teez)? It is a form of exercise developed by Joseph H. Pilates in the early 1900’s that is designed to strengthen, stretch and balance the body.

Besides functioning in everyday life, how will this help you with your Equestrian lifestyle? When you ride, you communicate with your horse through your body and voice. If your Core/Powerhouse is strong, then this communication will be done with out having to kick, yell, hang on the bit or squeeze so hard with your thighs that you can hardly walk the next day. You’ll tell your horse what you want him to do through the strength of your Core.

You’ll find your seat and ride with strength and confidence. You’ll have a beautiful posture on a much happier horse!!!
