15.01.2022 Strive to learn more about your body. * Try and detect your asymmetries. * Try to identify your weaknesses - we all have them. * Use videos and photos and mirrors to help you understand your body and how it moves on your horse.... * Train hard off the horse as well as on. * Train your core stabilising muscles. Learn how to activate them. All athletes cross train, regardless of their discipline. * Be patient. Change takes time but with persistence, it is absolutely guaranteed. The increased awareness of your body can only assist you on your riding journey. Happy Sunday

14.01.2022 The last two online Pilates Classes for the year will be held on; Tuesday 24/11 AND Tuesday 8/12 Would love to have you join me for them.

14.01.2022 A great follow up session with Kristy today. It was so helpful to have the additional insights from the ridden footage to assist me with our session in the Studio today. We made some excellent progress, keen to improve on the very subtle alterations in rider position we are seeking. Always a delight to work with! Determined, diligent and thoughtful. Oh and looks super in her Performance Pilates top!... And tonight I have the privilege of working with more dedicated and fabulous riders in my online class. A great day of teaching!

06.01.2022 This morning I was delighted to work with Kristy Sparkes doing some position analysis with some high resolution filming. The video footage provides the rider with invaluable insights regarding their symmetry, alignment, posture and how this may alter through the different gaits. Sometimes it takes the video footage for the rider to understand what it is their coaches may be trying to convey. When this footage can be slowed down, the resulting imagery is even more beneficial ...for the rider to see! Today was also about exploring the subtleties of position change. With Kristy I was asking her to open up through her collar bones further, gently draw her shoulder blades in to the mid line, bring the elbows ever so slightly further back and raising her chin a fraction. This resulted in a stronger position through her torso and better alignment. Ultimately, this is what we are trying to achieve in position analysis - a more connected rider and a more responsive horse. Interestingly, with these very small changes we were endeavouring to create, Kristy’s horse could feel every single one, and he let us know! We need to remember that how we move on our horse has a direct impact on how it moves! This position work becomes hugely beneficial for me to then work with the client off the horse, in my Studio. I am excited to take Kristy’s training off the horse to a new level with the insights I have gained today. I also made her stretch using the mounting block before she rode! That went down well I really enjoy this aspect of my work. I ran several clinics last year doing this and hope to explore these further in 2021. Best to you all. Jess P.s before and after photos below.....can you see the subtle changes?

05.01.2022 On Tuesday’s at 7pm (Vic time) I run live Pilates classes for riders The class is live streamed to a closed group. The cost is $12 Some Pilates experience would be beneficial.... The class combines core stability training as well as stretching and pliability work (similar exercises to those featured in the stretching class). Designed to heighten body awareness, increase core strength, challenge balance and build stamina and control. If you are keen to participate, please get in touch. Would love to have you join. Cheers.....Jess
