Correct Alignment
I had the pleasure of having a clinic with esteemed FEI rider, trainer and FEI 4*judge. She is amazing and was my first taste in learning biomechanics. In the photo, which one is correctly aligned and which one might resemble your alignment past or present?

When you have 12 equines the days are very similar to each other! Ooops 11 now. Gave the 1st to his new home last week. Was tough. He was 4 when I got him. He’s 21 now. I’m all he ever knew. But he’s got the best home I could possibly want. She does biomechanics of horse and rider, she’s becoming a fitness instructor, involved with the train your seat method, and one of Sally Swifts centered riding instructor’s is a friend of hers and they’re creating a train the trainer series of courses. Sorry that went off course! (See what I did there?!?)lolk

@Stacey Youlios oh soooo many of them. I love how mindfulness carries over. Since horses live now now now now. When we accompany them in that place while riding we will most assuredly have a better ride !

@Gabriela Monroy when I began tae kwon do with my son I didn’t even want to do it. I thought all the parents watching would be laughing at me. I dreaded it. And then something snapped in me. I started feeling better. And I got into it. But I made a lot of mistakes. Or was the oldest in the class, my knees would pop….or I’d epically fail the spin jump. I just laughed at myself. One of the instructors wanted me to stop laughing. I told him ‘if I stop laughing when I screw up I’d have to quit lessons. So I’ll keep laughing ok sir? ‘ he said ‘of course ma’am’. It helps you to not remain focused on went wrong.
