you in the Centered Riding® technique of Sally Swift.

your own center of balance using the center energy of your

The
“Horse Experience”
The
“Horse Experience": The Riding Lessons
are divided into four different parts and always take at least
2 hours. Beginning with the grooming, saddling and getting
to know your horse on the ground you will then have a brief
theoretical part (i.e. How does a horse move in different
gates and how do I sit with that?) and some Tai Chi stretching
exercises to loosen your muscles. Followed by the Arena Lesson
as described above. Concluding with a trail ride during which
you can apply what you have learned in the Arena. This way
you will always get a trail Ride even though you signed up
for the Lesson.
