Our Equisimulator offers experienced and novice clients the
opportunity to improve their riding and fitness levels. This
invaluable teaching aid offers many benefits from synchronising rider
with horse to improving balance and position, whilst also increasing
fitness levels and core strength.
Unlike
when riding a horse, with the Equisimulator the instructor can stand
next to the rider and show them the precise movements of the lower
back and pelvis hands on, therefore helping them to maintain
the correct position and balance in all the paces, including canter.The use of mirrors around the simulator also helps the rider
to view their own position without worrying about where the horse is
going.
The
simulator can also improve fitness levels,without the need for an instructor the individual can hire
out the simulator providing a “work-out” to improve muscle tone,
strength and fitness.
