Now let’s talk about posture

Let’s talk about posture---or, maybe not if the topic is too depressing!!

The caption on this old photo reads: “Geza von Haslenzsky of the Spanish Riding School in passage.”

For many riders, the mere act of trying to sit tall and open and in balance with the moving horse creates tension and stiffness, not because it is unobtainable, but because it hasn’t been practiced to the point that it feels natural.

There are lots of sport related activities that don’t feel “natural” at first, from a golf swing to skiing to figure skating to gymnastics, to whatever, but we see those athletes who’ve had tons of practice doing those things making them look easy.

And at a place like the Spanish Riding School this rider and ALL the riders there would have felt unnatural NOT to sit like this. It was not something stylized and mechanical for them, but simply the way it was done.

Changing the way we perform some physical action at first feels almost “wrong.” Then it gets less so, and eventually, if we keep at it, the new way becomes the natural way. So there’s hope at the end of the tunnel!

Due to change in circumstances i am looking for new long term accomodation for myself, my son Charlie who is with me 4 nights every fortnight and our much loved dog Bo. Bo is an outside dog he is quiet, hassle free, obedient friendly dog. I no longer own any horses so provision for horses is not required.

I prefer two bedroom with the necessary kitchen, bathroom/laundry, granny flat/cottage/small house. I have no issue with granny flats built into a shed. Preferably on acreage/large block as i am not a suburban type of person. I lead a very quiet modest life style and basically keep to myself.

I would be available to do some property maintenance, mowing, fixing fences, property and live stock care taking where required. I am a very experienced horseman, riding coach and qualifications in business management.

I prefer the Gold Coast hinterland, scenic rim, Canungra, nth or southern Gold Coast areas.

Please share this post and if you have something that may suit send me a personal message.

Thankyou Glen.

I would like to thank everybody on this page for their support. I am in the process of winding down my activities in the equestrian industry. There are many reasons for my decision for which I will standby. I will no longer be taking in any horses for training. I will be in the coming months selling off a lot of my gear. I have a fair bit plus rugs plus bits and pieces. If anybody has an interest in talking to me to purchase everything that I have in a one off purchase and is prepared to make me, an offer in doing so I am very keen to talk with you. That will make my life much easier. What I have represents many years of breaking in horses and training. I no longer own any horses recently I sold the last shareholding that I had in, one horse. The process I’m going to go through in winding down will take a little bit of time. This page will shut down within the next couple of weeks. Once this message has been given the opportunity to circulate. I will continue to contribute and post The GTE Rider Coaching private group. If you’re not a member of the group and wish to be pleased, drop me a message and I will include you into the group. Glen.
