Equi-Yoga - March 9, 2024 ~ 4:30 to 7:30PM
Equi-yoga™ is a practice developed by Marty Whittle combining the benefits of yoga, breath and movement. We have found that horses mirror our breath and body language. These unique yoga-based exercises are designed to help stretch, strengthen and create awareness of the rider’s body. Using these exercises in unison with your breath and your horse's movements, you can stretch and release tension from deep within and thereby achieve a better awareness of all individual body parts and their unity.
By learning to breathe correctly, engaging the diaphram and becoming aware of specific muscle groups, you can then unite with your horse's energy. Parts of the body which might be locked can be addressed and opened. The horse's response to your awareness of all individual body parts and their connection to him is the reward.
Specific exercises can target and unlock trouble areas such as the neck, shoulders, arms, back, seat and legs. By unlocking these areas, you allow your horse to flow through you.
