1. Horse Riding Vest in Pretty Pearl Blue.

Super sophisticated Pearl Blue small diamond quilted jacket has a water repellent moss microfiber shell and is fully lined. This princess cut jacket is flattering to the figure, and is lightweight but provides warmth for that early morning schooling session or late evening hack.

With true elegance this lovely vest is adjustable in the back and has a comfy elastic waist, which provides a super slimming fit as well as being great to wear. The zip on front is two way for flexibility and comfort when mounted, and the pockets zip closed to ensure no losing car keys in the sitting trot. The pockets are perfectly angled for a practical use and also add a further flattering line to slim the figure. Beautifully finished, high fashion at a very reasonable price. Machine wash, dry flat. 100% polyester. This is the size chart for all sizes on the Small Diamond vests. Note vests are adjustable by 2 inches on the waist (a press stud each side) dimensions are in inches.

2. Equi-Stretch Workout for the Rider Level One Strengthening and Stretching Techniques for the Rider from professional movement instructor Dan Weltner.

Learn how to target and develop the key muscular areas you use as an equestrian during this 35 minute workout. Dan Weltner demonstrates how to work to strengthen upper body and postural muscles, how to learn pelvic isolation, how to develop a greater range of motion, gain stability in the legs, build stronger abdominal muscles and increase overall body awareness.

TheHorseStudio.com review: This workout is a smart system which provides not just a very specific routine that will aid you in your body awareness and strength for riding, but I can see a benefit for other sports too. The length of the program is perfect, because most of us can find 35 minutes to work out each day and there is an additional 5 minute pre-riding warm up which I am sure the rider will appreciate and most certainly the horse will when you mount up. Fun and effective.

The work is easy to achieve and uncomplicated but it does work very keenly the major muscle areas we use when riding. After many years of persistent work on the longe line to develop an independent seat, I can attest that these are the areas you need to focus on and that developing them this way would certainly be preferable to too much time on the longe, where the body just overtires. The plan here from Dan Weltner is obviously borne from his expertise as a world renowned professional dancer who truly understands the biomechanics of the body. His awareness of the need for increased flexibility and how to achieve it successfully and without injury evidences his dance experience and his Pilates certification. His sister Kristi Weltner Redd who has ridden and trained horses for over 30 years provides the initiative for his sojourn into the 'thinking rider' and how to develop yourself with the same attention you give to develop the horse. It is after all a partnership - so I guess it's only fair we put our effort in too. I found this workout intelligently planned and easy to complete. The work is suitable for beginner through advanced riders, and anyone returning to the sport after a hiatus will certainly appreciate this neat package approach. Will certainly be looking forward to working up to Level two. The DVD for which is also available here at TheHorseStudio.com.

NTSC North America Canada Format

Dan Welter's dance credits include Walt Disney's Enchanted, Julia Robert's film Mona Lisa Smile, Stepford Wives with Nicole Kidman and many, many more. Kristi Weltner Redd is a certified North American Riding for the Handicapped Association Instructor, has operated a premier equestrian facility in Ohio and has a worked with many breeds of horses and is experienced in multi disciplines.

3. Yoga & Riding from Linda Benedik. Volume 1. Super advice on how to make the best of your body and improve your riding.

Linda Benedik takes the rider through hatha yoga with riding to improve balance, breathing and their performance. There is rider groundwork, which is a gentle flow style yoga routine to practice at home anytime. Followed by a rider warmup where she demonstrates how you can practice yoga at the stables. Center, stretch and release tension before you mount your horse.

The mounted yoga workout, a moving meditation at the walk. You don't need any yoga experience or age group specific to use the program and it will improve your seat on the horse and enhance your daily life.
