An innovative and easy-to-use application of Pilates principles to the training, conditioning, and rehabilitation of horses. This highly illustrated how-to manual provides a clear guide to new ways of thinking about how to prevent injury in the horse, and when injuries do happen, to help the horse's body recover in a mindful and safe way. As a Pilates teacher for humans, horsewoman and eventer Laura Reiman has seen first-hand how consistent, quality exercise can ward off strain and injury, as well as heal.
When her young horse was diagnosed with extreme back pain and a neurological disease, she turned to her knowledge of Pilates-the method she'd used to ease back pain in human clients for years-for help. She began to find ways to bridge the gap between the horse's mind and body to help increase his body awareness and core engagement.
The result is a cohesive series of original exercises that can be taken in parts or as a whole and seamlessly incorporated into an existing training program to be a: Preventive tool to increase the horse's strength, balance, mobility, and stability. Framework for a new program to help ease a horse back into work following an injury or time off. Readers will find chapters dedicated to: Observation-basic anatomy and how to know your horse's body and movement. Stretching-including incentive stretches, supported static hold, and dynamic mobilization stretches. Core work-such as the Cat Stretch and Bridging.
In-hand strengthening work-like varied surfaces and ground pole progressions. Exercises on the longe line-transitions, bending, and spiraling. Lessons under saddle-gymnastics, hills, and basic dressage.
