'INTUITIVE' RIDING
BODY TENSION is not support -for your horse.
It is difficult to realize your own tensions or stressors.
An 'intuitive', or 'sensitive' coach --can see where energy is stricken, or halted. To not allow our energy to flow in natural shared movement, can or will cause the same reaction within the horse, who will then brace or -make solid a particular part of their body. The legs, back, neck or shoulders of the horse will then brace. If the footing is irregular or hard, or there is an object to land on, their tensed body parts, could --in the worse case scenario --cause a bone fracture or a sprained ligament. The hard or irregular movement could also cause a rider to fall.
The horse picks-up our body language, and often duplicate it --if only to a slight degree. Be thankful for that! It makes common sense, to learn NOT to cause 'your own body tension' to be un-necessarily inherited by your horse.
STQH INTUITIVE RIDING --is a sharing of body energy and movement.
