Improve Your Balance in the Saddle Q&A
Manage episode 500442673 series 3289596
This week we’re diving into rider position — from balance and strength to saddle fit and stirrup length — and how each affects your security and effectiveness in the saddle.
I’m sharing fresh tips from a recent clinic with German trainer Albrecht Heidemann, why fitness is key if you ride just one horse a day, and how post-surgery recovery made me rethink core and glute strength!
In this episode:
- Finding balance without bracing in your thighs
- How stirrup length & saddle design impact position
- The two muscle groups that make the biggest difference in stability
We wrapped up with a Q&A session tackling ankle motion, neutral spine, fixing a chair seat, and more.
Happy Riding,
Amelia
