Dry Land Training for Equestrians
Many sports partake in what we call “dry land” training; the process of strength and mobility training outside of designated sporting drills. While this is common in many sports, we don’t see it occur as often as suggested for our equestrian athletes. Our workshop “Dry Land” for Equestrians is hoping to change this narrative! Come join us as we spend time out of the saddle to focus on rider health and wellness. Get ready for an informative and interactive day covering topics such as nutrition, strength and mobility, and mindset. Your horses will thank you!
