Item description from seller

Paperback. When horsewoman and certified personal trainer Joyce Kramer discovered that the riders most committed to fitness were not reaping the benefits of their improved athleticism on horseback, she abandoned the standard protocol for developing strength, endurance, and stability. Her background in the study of movement and holding patterns enabled her to develop her own unique approach to physical training capable of improving riding function and performance in such dramatic ways, it can bring out what she calls the "inner elite rider" in everyone. Using phenomenal hand-drawn imagery and engaging photographs of her own students at work, Kramer begins her book by clarifying the four most important ingredients to riding in harmony with an equine partner, as well as the aspects that nurture a sense of "feel" in the rider: - Alignment - Centering - Grounding - Positive Tension The second part of the book focuses on rider position, deconstructing the body's sections and again using imagery to enable readers to connect all their "parts" into one cohesive, breathing, supple "whole." An optimal position allows the horse to carry the rider comfortably and efficiently, promoting performance to the very best of his ability. Finally, Kramer takes the reader on a journey to the "deep core," which she has identified as key not only to limiting extraneous movement of the exterior body visible to others, but also to the energy exchange at the most exciting level of connection with a horse. Bones, internal organs, and spinal stabilizers are engaged on the ground and in the saddle, using sound cues, proprioceptive props, and imagery, with mind-blowing results. With hundreds of images, tips, and exercises that can be modified according to age and ability, and an excitingly fresh perspective, this book can be the key to any rider reaching the next level in the saddle-whether that means excelling in a whole new division of competition, or recovering or rebuilding after time away from the sport. Every page is full of fun, engaging answers to your riding questions, ideas for clearing your stumbling blocks, and the endless promise of pursuing an activity you love in the company of your horse. Creative concepts and exercises that fundamentally improve your riding foundation, enabling you to excel in any training system or discipline.
