Developing the Young Horse
"Rider Position, Part 5"
by Lynn Palm, Palm Partnership Training
In
this series of articles, I am sharing some simple stretching and flexibility
exercises to help build a rider's relaxation, proper form, and balance. Before
we start, let me repeat some important safety considerations for those of you
who are new to this series. To
do these exercises you will need a consistent, well schooled horse that is
tacked up with saddle, bridle and leg protection. Practice in a large enclosed
area like a paddock, corral, or arena to give you and your horse more security.
These exercises can be done in either a Western or English saddle. A Western
saddle will give you more security, and it is a great confidence builder.
However, whether you are a Western or English rider, using an English saddle
for these exercises will help to build better form, balance, and confidence.
