The NEW Ride With Your Mind Clinic with Mary Wanless: 2008 release; Rider Biomechanics - Basics to Brilliance

For the trainer who would like to have more tools at hand and methods to communicate more thoroughly with their students, Mary Wanless brings her considerable knowledge of physics and biomechanics to hand. The approach is based upon studies in T'ai Chi, massage, dance, biofeedback, neuro-linguistic programming, Alexander and Feldenkrais sytems of body work, psychology, sports psychology and educational kinesiology.

Wow... and all put in a highly accessible system that allows the rider to correct faults in their position and utilize correct symmetry, work with their muscles effectively and train their mind and body to accept better habits. Each chapter addresses different major weaknesses in riders, through the use of students who share their 'before' and 'after' pictures. Working from beginners through Grand Prix riders, different issues are kindly addressed and shared, and corrective work yields positive results. From the riders who have no inner 'core' and thus rounded backs to those hollowing the back, to the anatomical differences and thus strengths and weaknesses between men and women ( though here it's almost women only addressed), to lateral work, advanced work and focus/concentration enhancement for every rider, it's all here. Some lovely photography from Rhett Savoie rounds out a well written text.

Hardcover 2008 release; 184pp
