Common riding position mistakes with upper body (Fix these!)

In horse riding / dressage, it is essential that we develop a good, balanced position on the horse. When we have good posture and alignment in our body, achieving a correct and balanced seat on the horse will be a lot easier.

Hello and welcome to my channel! My name is Johanna Janatuinen, I´m a physiotherapist, animal physiotherapist and riding instructor. A big passion of mine has always been training horses and also rehabilitation. This channel is all about horse and rider wellbeing, and horse and rider training and development. You will find tips to improve your riding in and out of the saddle, and especially on how to develop a better seat in the saddle, which I think all good riding eventually comes down to.
I have worked with horses and riders for more than 20 years, first training horses and teaching riding in Finland where I live and also abroad. Later I studied to become a physiotherapist and after that also specialized in animal physiotherapy. I treat and train horses and riders, my biggest focus being to develop the connection and understanding between rider and the horse.

So helpful! Are there any yoga ball exercises to challenge your posture/make sure you're sitting tall and not leaning too far back?

Here are some links to exercises to challenge your mobility, stability and balance! I would suggest practicing in front of a mirror to make sure you still find the correct posture😊
