Do you have trouble recognizing good movement?

Is it hard for you to identify good posture and alignment in riders?

Do you struggle to find that elusive “feel” that is so essential for good riding and horsemanship?

Through this program Wendy will teach you how to:

  • Understanding anatomy and how it relates to movement

  • Look at different horses and identify their movement patterns

  • Develop the feel in your own riding through exercises on and off the horse

  • Learn how horses can change their movement patterns and how the same horse can look completely different when they move in a different way

In the ABCs to On The Aids, Wendy will help you demystify these and many other challenges that riders so often face.

This course is wonderful at teaching riders how to distinguish good movement from poor, as well as how to develop a clear understanding of riding terms such as “on the aids”, “collection”, “throughness”, “tracking”, “impulsion” and more.

Learning Objectives:

  • Develop your eye for movement to see if a horse is moving in balance
  • Learn the importance of Weight-Bearing Posture and how it keeps a horse sound
  • Define common terms such as frame, throughness, and collection.

ABCs to On the Aids is a 5 Part Program

Picture

In Anatomy of Movement, we begin by understanding anatomy and how it relates to movement. Wendy explains in detail the importance of weight-bearing posture from the horse and explains the true meaning of riding terms such as on the bit or on the aids, throughness, impulsion, collection, and cadence.

Next, in Seeing Movement: Good, Bad, and Ugly, you will spend time looking at different horses moving on a lunge line as well as under saddle to identify their movement patterns, such as shortening or lengthening the topline, over or under tracking, and rotating the ribcage right or left.

Then in Feeling the Difference, Wendy will help you to develop the feel in your own riding through exercises on and off the horse. Each step of the way, you will receive simple homework sheets to help you apply what you are learning to the horses you ride by developing your eye and improving your feel. 

Picture

In Movement of the Rider, develop your eye for the movement of the rider as well. Watch as Wendy points out and corrects imbalance and poor position in the rider, first on the spring horse and then with several riders on their own horses. You’ll see how much the horse will change as the rider finds better posture.

Finally, in Finding the Change, see how the horses can change their movement patterns and how the same horse can look completely different when they move in a different way. ​
