Why take Riding Lessons?
There are multiple benefits to horseback riding. Riding brings simple enjoyment and harmony between a person and a warm, living animal; it benefits the student mentally with focus and discipline; it benefits the body with balance, coordination and strength; and it benefits the soul with an infusion of confidence, calm and pride. Riding is for people of all ages.
What is CENTERED RIDING?
-
an innovative way of expressing the classical principles of riding, using body awareness, centering, and imagery
-
encompasses all seats and styles of riding. It teaches a language that allows clearer communication between horse, rider, and instructor
-
developed by Sally Swift
-
based on a knowledge of human and horse anatomy, balance, movement, and on understanding how the mind affects the body and how both affect the horse
-
uses centering and grounding techniques from the oriental martial arts, along with body awareness, mental imagery and sports psychology.
