55 Corrective Exercises for Horses: Resolving Postural Problems, Improving Movement Patterns, and Preventing Injury

Horses develop postural habits, compensate for soreness and injury, and acquire poor movement patterns over time. These issues limit performance, cause unsoundness and health problems, and affect the horse's overall well-being. 55 Corrective Exercises for Horses presents mounted and unmounted corrective exercises designed to improve a horse's posture and movement. The exercises apply to horses in active performance, pleasure riding, aging horses that benefit from gentle work, and those recovering from injury, illness, or deconditioning. The book includes guidelines for analyzing a horse's posture and movement patterns, helping readers develop awareness of equine body mechanics. The exercises use cross-training techniques applicable across all disciplines and are structured to avoid shortcuts. This collection aims to optimize how horses use their bodies and support long-term soundness and health.
