Spring 2021 Issue

Despite bringing in the new year in lockdown we’re still planning on making this year the best yet! Check out Daisy Smith’s seven steps to goal setting for the season ahead to keep your resolutions on track. We’re all guilty of putting our horse’s diet before our own, but it’s time to make sure your diet is working to improve your riding. Plus, we’ve put together some horse and rider routines to help reach your fitness goals.

Alice Oppenheimer shares how to introduce travers and half-pass into your schooling sessions. Not only do they feature in higher level dressage, they’re also fantastic exercises for suppling your horse. We can’t get enough of Tania Grantham’s pole layouts! In the third part of her series there are four exercises to help improve your transitions and paces. If you’re looking to take the showjumping circuit by storm when events get going again then check out Gemma Tattersalls round-winning warm-up routine.
