The
equation of riding seems deceptively simple on first
glance. Take one horse, add one rider, put them together
and you are supposed to get harmonious, magical movement,
right?
Do you have trouble keeping your horse straight between
your legs? Does he feel like he falls one way or the
other all the time? When you ride with an instructor,
are they constantly trying to fix your leg position?
We are starting with
the feet, because they are the base of everything, the
support that you stand on. I am going to demonstrate
a series of exercises to encourage movement in your feet
and ankles, strengthen your arch and help you find balance
over your feet.
