Every equestrian wants to know: what is the difference between the
horse that 'dances' when you are on him, and the one that doesn't?
According to Visconte Simon Cocozza, trainer and examiner for the
La Federation Francaise d'Equitation (FFE), it all comes down to
the horse's posture. The horse's ability to use the powerful
mechanisms already built into his body relies not upon the strength
we can see on the outside but the strength on the inside. This
invisible and complex arrangement of internal 'core' muscles
control the horse's posture, suppleness, and agility. Their good
condition is the key to the dance. Equine core muscles are very
difficult to isolate with the traditional training techniques
common to horse sports. However, by examining what we do with the
human body when faced with a weak core, we can find new methods for
conditioning these areas of the equine body. Visconte Cocozza has
taken principles of the human practice of yoga and used them to
develop novel ways of reaching deep within the horse's body and
gently 'unlocking' areas that may be a little "rusty" while at the
same time improving core fitness. In Core Conditioning for Horses,
he provides step-by-step instruction explaining easy mounted
exercises that enhance the horse's posture, and boost his
confidence in his body and movement, making him easier to ride, and
ultimately, the dance partner you've always imagined.
