I am passionate about two things, yoga and ponies!  I came to yoga because my little mare had lots of problems with behaviour caused by pain.  I was terrified and came back to yoga because I needed to do something that didn’t scare me.  As I practiced I realised that I was able to breathe and plant my feet when Gemma played up, and to stay calm.  Our relationship improved enormously.  As her health improved and I was able to ride Gemma again, I noticed that my riding balance, posture and connection in the saddle was much better.

Yoga can help you to stay grounded, calm and focused to have a better relationship with your horse.  After all we are asking them to stay focused and remain with us, so perhaps we need to do the same for them.

Yoga is for everyone!  I’ll be running workshops and courses aimed specifically for horse owners, riders and lovers soon.  Follow me on Facebook or sign up to my mailing list for more information.
