Satchy has just spotted the Wave, our new dynamic movement chair, during our photo shoot. Www.theridersedge.ca
Join us for our Spring Pilates Workshop to take your riding up a notch. We will be focusing on posture and core stability to improve your movement with your h...orse. I believe that good posture on the ground is essential for good riding posture. When your body is flexible and strongly supported, it translates into the saddle, and creates balance in movement with your horse. Core stability aids in improving posture, and can affect a rider’s strength and evenness of both sides of their body. We will run rider’s through different pilates exercises that develop the posture and core stability that specifically aids rider-specific muscle groups and movement patterns. Join us in April for a morning of Pilates. Limited spaces available - $70 per person (all props including yoga mats are provided) 9:30 - noon (light refreshments to follow) visit www.theridersedge.ca to register.

Talking to Carl Hester about positive tension: Watching Charlotte working Valegro, that the incredible quality that she was showing was positive tension, he was... electric, he was never stressed, but he was electric, and that’s a very weird concept Where it tips over, that positive tension, is if you let the horse get strong in the bridle. Once you let the horse become heavy on the hand and strong in the bridle, it’s not positive any more, because then there is a block. If you can create what we try to create, without heavy hands, without hanging onto the rein, if you can do it with self-carriage, then it looks beautiful. http://www.horsemagazine.com//balance-self-carriage-and-t/ See more

Pilates for Riders Workshop - September 15, 2018
New pics and testimonials from our recent Balimo Seat Clinic in Nebraska. Posted on the website www.theridersedge.ca
I once wrote a Diddy for eckart meyners when I was in the BALIMO program. Sung in the finest of Disney dwarfs fashion. Hi ho, hi ho We're off to Balimo... Let's move this show, From head to toe, Hi ho, hi ho. Even put the script on a tshirt for his lovely wife Christiane. Lol Balance in motion is much more than just the Balimo chair. It's a complete bodywork system (both mental and physical). Drop me an email if you'd like more information about hosting a Balimo Seat Clinic. [email protected]

Getting yourself ready for spring training? -
Our Nuvolari "Alfie" met a nice orange March F1 car today at Mosport. They got to swap stories, while we caught up with some friends from our past and rekindled friendships. They even got to share a tarp in the rain! Fun times!
Pick me! My dance card isn't full!
When we aren't riding we are making sound track music. These guys were great!
It's that time of year again - haying. I'm looking for a small quantity of small square bales, just to tie me over until this year's crop comes off the field. Perhaps 30 - 50 bales. [email protected] or 613 399-3658 Joan

Timing is everything! We were fortunate to be at the OEF booth when Ashley Holzer was there signing autographs. We took the opportunity to have our photo taken... together, and to show Ashley our new Rider's Training Journal. She loved it and was super enthusiastic to take it away to show to her riders. Nothing beats passion & she sure has maintained hers! Thanks Ashley, we hope to meet you again in 2015! and p.s. yes - my Ashley is named after her! See more

Joan is currently in the process of becoming certified as a Pilates "Reformer" teacher. The Reformer is a piece of Pilates equipment, which uses a 'bed-like frame, with a moving carriage, with several springs attached. This is a wonderful piece of equipment for riders to work out on, as it builds strength and flexibility both, without building 'bulk'. Joan is now teaching one on one sessions at Pilates by the Bay, in Consecon. If you are interested in learning more about the services we are now providing, please contact me at [email protected].
