- In this video I share some dressage specific exercises to help you create longer legs in the saddle. Improving your dressage fitness off the horse is important as this can really help enhance how well you perform in the saddle.
You see when you look at professional riders they all have the appearance of leg longs in the stirrups, however for many this is really hard to achieve and often stiffness and tightness can shorten our leg position.
This video I share stretches to help you enhance your leg length when you are riding to allow your leg to naturally want to create length in the saddle.
So enjoy trying these exercises out to help you loosen and lengthen your leg in the saddle.

Was able to drop my stirrups two holes in a matter of weeks because of these stretches. I used to get really tight and painful hips after riding sitting trot on one of my trainer's big warmbloods and these stretches have helped that problem, too.
Fantastic resources provided, thankyou, Nicola. I happened upon yr site whilst googling looking towards starting competing dressage, & learning the arena set up! But recently whilst training my horses I've been thinking alot about tension in my hip flexors & the struggle I have in trying to achieve correct alignment, always trying to work my legs back. Great demo of perfectly relevant exercises. You look beautifully flexible & svelte! Look foward to following more 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🐎💐🙏
Thank you! I’m going to try this!

OMG that hurts. I am extremely tight in my muscles and tried doing these exercises. I stopped after the first one because it hurt too much. The pain won't stop me and I will continue to do more each day. I love your exercises, I took your first dressage fitness course and always look forward to your emails. BTW: because I'm so tight in my muscles , I squeeze my knees, lose my stirrups and point my toes out. .
Brilliant! Thanks for the practical advice 😁 keep em coming !
