The rider-horse connection

The rider's body is in constant communication with the horse through the seat, legs and hands. Tensions, asymmetries and movement patterns in the rider are directly transferred to the horse. This means that the rider's physical condition has a direct impact on the horse's performance and wellbeing.

Fascia treatment for riders

Just as horses benefit from fascia treatment, riders can also improve their riding through treatment of their own fascia network. Increased mobility, reduced tension and better body awareness lead to a more balanced and harmonious riding experience.
