EQUESTRIAN TOOL KIT (ETK)
Level One, Course One— Awareness Clinic
The first ETK clinic is focused on awareness, your own body’s and your horse’s, to help you understand how your body interfaces with your horse’s. It will cover the releasing of tension patterns and restrictive movements, compensatory patterns, posture, energy, and what we need to deal with right now. The concept of awareness is multi-faceted and part of an ongoing individual journey encompassing the physical, mental and emotional aspects of self. In this course, we will be focusing primarily on physical awareness. Body awareness is about how conscious of and connected we are to our own body. Also known as kinesthesia, it’s the awareness of the position and movement of body parts in relation to muscles and joints. In short, it’s how our brain recognizes where our body is in space. By increasing body awareness: we get a better understanding of the body’s movement potential. we analyze the available movement in the body by identifying holding patterns caused by dysfunctional movement in our body. we develop a whole-body approach for strengthening and brain-imprinting exercises to reinforce the new way of moving. Since the mind and body work together, when dissociation of the two happens occasionally through life events, emotional and other energetic factors, the disconnect can cause physical discomfort or dysfunction. Observing our body in depth on a regular basis can not only change the dysfunctional patterning that produces pain cycles, but refine/enhance our movement and build new strength. The relief and greater understanding that comes from improving our observation of the energy and functional movement of our own bodies also has a huge impact on what our horses can feel/sense from us. **Limited Spots Available** Cost of this clinic is $595+ GST , payment in full required at time of registration.
