Equestrian Pilates is for riders of all disciplines and riding abilities who want to become the best they can be. Designed to improve riding skills and make the riding experience more enjoyable. Riders can see dramatic improvements in their own fitness and riding skill through the Equestrian Pilates programme.
Equestrian Pilates can help with:
- Balance and gripping with arms and legs
- Communicating with your body simple aids through to complex Dressage moves
- Maintaining great posture in the saddle through all gaits and over jumps
- Back pain and soreness after riding
- Sitting to the trot and achieving lead changes
and much more
Equestrian Pilates helps improve any style of riding by focusing on the biomechanics of the rider and improving 'horse-fitness'.
Anything that is happening in your body, whether it is stiffness, inflexibility or weakness will be reflected in your horse. Equestrian Pilates will help bring your awareness to your body and how it affects your horse and give you the tools to improve your equestrian body.
Equestrian Pilates Clinic is a half day workshop that takes your through a self assessment process and gives you a stretching programme, a home programme and a do anywhere pilates programme. This is supported with a comprehensive manual.

Thanks Jenny really enjoyed the clinic and felt incredibly freed up afterwards and indeed the next day. I hadn't realised just how tight I'd become. Interestingly even my attitude changed for having stretched everything out ... guess that means I'll be doing the exercises regularly from here on in!
Great clinic, lots of fun. Let me know when the next one is. Sue King.
