You need a good foundation, just like the horse.

When a car’s tracking is off, it causes extra wear on the tyres.
When your alignment is off, it puts extra strain on your joints.

The result? More wear and tear on your body out of the saddle, and more riding problems carried into the saddle.

Here are just a few riding issues that restoring your alignment can help with:

• Leg and foot problems
• Balance Issues
• Unsteady Hands
• Seat Issues
• Can’t feel or maintain some corrections
• Coordination difficulties
• Tension
• Subtle corrections you can't master

I've met many riders who feel this way and I’ve been there

That’s why I created this course, packed with simple, bite-sized strategies that weave into even your busiest days. No extra time needed, just small movements that make a big impact on your riding, and help your body and horse.

I'll guide you clearly, boost your confidence, keep you motivated and give you ongoing support. 

Why is alignment important for you and your horse?

The way you move every day shows up when you're in the saddle.

Restoring your alignment is like unlocking secrets about your body. It lets you feel what’s going. How you stand, balance, and even those habits you don’t think about. 

And guess what...

• As you tune into your own alignment, you’ll start noticing more about your horse’s movement and how they’re feeling. 
• Creating a clearer communication with your horse.
• When you’re aligned, you’re not just easing the strain on your own body, you’re also helping your horse movement and posture!
• Less pressure on your joints means fewer aches and pains, stiffness, and extra wear and tear.
• It also aids your overall health, the way your blood can flow, your bones strength, your breathing, digestion, and even your pelvic floor.
