***BESTSELLER!! Connecting with your horse is the single most powerful thing you can do to transform your riding and training...AND...
Stretching on Horseback Offers one of the Easiest, Fastest and Most Time-Effective ways to Become a Better Rider AS you Find Unity With Your Horse. WITHOUT enduring difficult sessions of drilling, and repetition.
Affording you a chance work on your Position, Abilities, Timing and Feel, all while Increasing the Partnership, Bond, and Relationship you have with your horse.
...Yet few equestrians are aware of this powerful tool, a tool that will profoundly transform your ride. They waste valuable time and effort focused on creating the perfect position, without realizing what their horse thinks of their contortions. Then spending the rest of the ride making their horse listen, creating a dull and unresponsive horse. What about flipping that on its head!?! Begin your ride in a way where you grow your awareness and find your position easily and naturally all while improving harmony, unity, feel, and the ability to time your aids.Setting the stage for a ride BOTH you and your horse enjoy!
Paula Curtis wants her students to have fun, enjoyment, and be creative in their riding. I teach because I want riders to feel what is truly possible. If you can learn more about your horse, what motivates him and makes him interested in what you have to offer, then you can train effectively. Riding is about; feel, communication and partnership. Riders need to think from the horse's perspective, and work with the horse's mind.
Here's a glimpse at what you will find in this transformative book.
- How to break free of old patterns and habits, easily and naturally finding your own perfect position.
- Why ordinary training oftentimes removes us from the thinking-feeling state necessary to connect with our bodies and with our horses and what to do about it.
- The clever (and easy to apply) techniques you discover in this one-of-a-kind training will allow you to reach your true riding potential.
- How to let go of old limiting patterns of movement, bringing in new beneficial patterns easily and readily.
- Why ordinary equitation may be harming both you and your horse, and how to find a position that helps, not hinders you...
- A feel based approach, empowering you to truly center, both physically and mentally, tuning in to your own body as well as your horse's.
- How stretching reduces fear, freeing you to intentionally practice positions that may not be natural, allowing you to learn that even though you feel out of control, the body still has balance and ability to stabilize.
- How to transform your riding, as your stability, effectiveness, and self awareness is taken to a new level.When you gain this profound increase in your awareness & power of observation, you will find you can be your own teacher.
- The secret to independence of the aids, as you become a quieter more effective rider, allowing for clear and accurate communication.
- What NOT to do if you want swift and dramatic improvements in finding your own functional, centered, balanced position AND How to do it WITHOUT stiffness or force.
- How shifting your intentions and focusing on yourself takes the pressure to perform off of the horse, creating relaxation. A relaxed horse is far easier to train than a tense horse.
- How to use guided visualizations and strategic questioning, to stay in an intuitive feeling state, of self-discovery AND union with your horse.
Are You looking to create a partnership with your horse that is fun, easy and inspirational? In a way that is heart-centered, partnership-based, nurturing curiosity and a sense of pride. Then look no further. Add Stretch to Connect to your library today. FREE Video, Audio, and Works
