As horse owners we can often worry about whether our horse has a sore, stiff or poorly functioning back. It’s sometimes hard to know what’s normal in terms of the horse’s back function and recognising when things aren’t quite right. We hear of problems such as kissing spines, sacroiliac dysfunction, arthritis, spondylosis, back stiffness and muscle problems being frequently diagnosed. These can cause poor performance in many horses and we also know that asking a horse to carry a rider can compromise back posture, movement and performance. All this makes owning and riding a horse quite worrying and at times daunting, when all we want is the best for them.  Don’t despair - there’s some good news, in this webinar, Gillian will reveal the top 10 things every rider should know and do on a regular basis with their horses to help prevent back problems occurring. Her recommendations are easy to do and will help whatever the age or stage of training, whatever disciplines you do with your horse. These practical tips and exercises are easy to perform and will also help to improve posture, back suppleness and strength.

This webinar is to celebrate the launch of Gillian’s new book “A Comprehensive Guide to Pilates for Horses” which is published on Wednesday 20th November.
