Riding Ready Position

Understanding and finding a functional and balanced ready position for riding

Course Summary

Riding Ready Position focuses on whether your body can organise itself into a functional, neutral position at rest on the horse.

Riding is not static, but if you can’t find and maintain a ready position before the horse moves, it becomes very difficult to control your body once movement and force increase.

The aim is not to teach you how to ride or tell you where to put yourself.
It’s to help you understand what your body needs to be able to do so movement becomes possible and compensation is reduced.

This course forms the foundation for the Riding Ready framework and prepares you for Riding Ready – Movement and the Help sections, where readiness is tested and common rider problems are explored.
