Yes your tight body affects your riding and horse. Come do some yoga at Star 4 Yoga!

Did you know? The horse adapts to rider stiffness, not just rider weight!

📚 The science
Research on horse–rider interaction shows that rider postural control and stiffness affect force transmission through the saddle, altering how forces are absorbed and redistributed by the horse (Clayton & Hobbs, 2017).

đź§  What this means biomechanically
In biotensegrity terms, stiffness increases pre-stress in the system.
A stiff rider raises the overall tension in the horse–rider structure, forcing the horse to increase muscular tone to stabilise itself.

đź§Ť In plain terms
You don’t need to be heavy to be disruptive.

If you brace:
• through your core
• through your hips
• through your thoracic spine
• or hold your breath

…your horse stiffens because it has to.

This often looks like:
• hollowing
• shortened stride
• rushing
• loss of swing

This is something we discussed in our webinar with Tuulia Luomala on the myofascial connection between horse and rider (pic)

🎓 Why this matters (webinar)
Being “strong” isn’t enough. We’ll break down where riders need stability and where they need mobility, and why confusing it all messes horses up!
