The Equine PT Program This has the flow-on effect of helping reduce many common training and schooling issues in the arena.

The Equine PT Program helps horse owners improve their horse's posture and performance so they are happier in their work, perform better and have a longer working life. Designed by an Equestrian Coach who's also an Equine Body Worker, The Equine PT Program combines the principles of Classical Dressage with modern Movement Science. It's a training method that works WITH the horse's body, including

exercises to strengthen his core postural muscles so he can stand, move and carry the rider in a healthier posture. Issues like falling in and cutting the corners, falling out on the circle, trouble bending on the stiff side, horses that are tense, rushing or travel in a hollow frame, that disunite in the canter or struggle to get the correct canter lead. All of these issues can be resolved by addressing the underlying symptom (rather than focusing on the cause as many riding instructors do!) for example, it could be that the horse has a weak left hind, and that's why he's can't bend to the right etc. It's not just for competitive/equestrian horses though, this training method is based on bio-mechanics and improving the way the horse chooses to use his body. It's great for strengthening up young or green horses so you can build up their backs and core strength prior to starting under saddle, to make it easier and less stressful for them to learn to carry a rider. It's perfect for maintaining senior/retired horses to release some of that age-related stiffness tightness, and can be done both from the ground or from the saddle. The Equine PT Program offers both stand-alone Online Courses and also ongoing Coaching Programs where you can work closely with Jessica in a fully customisable program to suit the place you and your horse are starting from right now. If you'd like to join the ever-growing group of riders who want the best for their horses and are looking to train them in a way that works with the horse - both physically, mentally and emotionally - strengthening and suppling their bodies, preserving their willing natures and keeping them sounder for longer then please be in touch via fb messenger or [email protected] to discuss how I can help you with your horse.

APPRECIATION POST - dear old Vladimir who features in so many of the Equine PT course videos is sadly no longer with us. He made it to a stately 27years, which I'm crediting to his Andalusian bloodlines.

As I review the course looking for opportunities to add new knowledge that I've learned since the original production some 5 years ago, and re-film better ways of explaining some of the things, I realise this will result in less and less of Vladimir's presence in the updated program.

This appreciation post is a reflection of a beautiful old soul who taught me so much and helped me along my journey is his quiet and wise way. Greatly missed, but never forgotten.

I'm curiously pondering which of my current horses will be the new face of EPT and feature in the new demonstration videos...? Watch this space to find out.

We're excited to announce our 🥳 NEW NAME 🥳 it's a small change, replacing the word "Personal" with "Postural", but it will make a big difference for horse owners who are discovering us for the first time, to get a sense of what we're all about more easily 🩵

Why does this matter? It's winter in Australia right now, and many horse owners are feeling the $ pinch with high hay prices on top of other economic pressures. This means that more and more, riders are choosing to stay home, and train at home, rather than taking their horses out and about to clinics, lessons or competitions.

If you're anything like me, it's hard to stay motivated to keep your horse in work when it's winter outside, and there's nothing like a deadline (aka a comp that you're entered) to keep your training on track and stay dedicated no matter the weather!

How can Equine PT help? We've got exercises, workout plans and activities you can do at home, all designed to improve the way your horse uses his body and carries himself. It's a systematic approach that allows you to track progress along the way, and move on to harder versions of the exercises as your horse gets better and stronger, so that no matter what your starting point is, you'll be able to measure the improvements.

If you'd like to know more, give us a thumbs up 👍so our posts pop up on your feed more often, and keep an eye on this page for more info in the coming days and weeks 🦄
