Teaching Tip: DESIGNATE a RESTING PLACE for HANDS in adaptive/therapeutic riding lessons

Give your students a specific place to rest their hands when they need a break.

It's ok if students can't hold their hands off the saddle for the entire class!
(Yes....I just said it's ok for students to have their hands on the saddle for part of the lesson!)

The instructor should be aware of this common event/need and plan ahead to help avoid any negative impact "droopy" hands can have on the student or horse.

By giving your students a specific place to rest their hands you can help minimize:
🐴 The horse getting pulled on because reins are getting pulled on by drooping hands
🐴 Posure being impacted by drooping hands or bracing on the saddle
🐴 Poor steering or halt ex*****on if the student has to do it right after a resting position (limited strength or stamina)
🐴 Hand position and hold on reins changing due to droopy position or reins pulling on fingers

Having a designated resting place also helps students build awareness of the impact their hands and body has on the horse.

You can slowly increase the time students need to rest them by designating specific times during the ride thar they need to hold them off the saddle (ex: for the next 5 steps, down the long side, between cones, ...).

You can also fee a bit less naggy by shifting your wording from telling the students where to put their hands to "I see you need your hands and arms need a break, where should they be"? Or even "Hand check"!

👉Do you utilize designated hand rest areas?

Note: This technique can also be utilized during traditional lessons! Especially with younger students who are building muscles and stamina.
