Scooping Ice Cream -- Scooping Your Horse 

How much do you want?  

If you haven't scooped any ice cream lately, here's your excuse to do so!

The image is from a peach ice cream recipe I found on Pinterest.  

When you scoop ice cream, you may have noticed there are a few considerations that play into success.

The angle of your scoop changes whether your scoop digs down and gets stuck, creates a nice little scoop of ice cream, or skips up and flings a bit into the air.

The amount of forward is also a factor into how things go.

So what's this got to do with a horse?

I find the container of the scoop a lovely image for holding the hind end of the horse -- from the lumbosacral joint back and above the stifle.  The motor.

The angle is important.  And the amount of oomph makes a difference, too.

Rather than saying what I've discovered, let me know, how does this work for you?  What can you play with and how does that affect you and your horse?

Let me know how it goes!

Let's Get Together!

Are you looking for something more in your riding?  Something that really connects the inside and the outside? Sometimes a hands on experience can do a lot to clarify something written.
I've studied horse and human anatomy for twenty five years.  I started with Centered Riding and that is solidly based upon how bodies work and how brains process information.  I know Alexander, Feldenkrais, Trigger Point, myofascial, Ortho-bionomy, how to develop resistance training programs, and more recently I am incorporating concepts from Body-Mind-Centering.  I've done yoga for more than forty years, studied (and used) the chakra and meridian systems for over twenty.  Sometimes I don't go into theory because in the middle of a lesson it would detract from the practical learning of how to ride, but I do clinics where I share this information along with how to incorporate it into your training program.  And if you really don't mind listening to me yak forever, I can easily do that during a lesson, too.  It's just most folks want to ride!

"The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities." 

~ James Allen
