Welcome to Episode : Part 1 of 2: Recognising Core Strength
Join Dr Raquel and Sophie and explore the core's vital role to healthy movement. A strong core is necessary(!!) for creating spinal stability and self carriage. Dysfunctional compensatory movement often develops when the core musculature is unable to engage and work to support the spine, and one of the best skills you can have is being able to observe whether your horse is using their core correctly - tune in and learn the key things to look for!
Key Points Discussed:
- What makes up the horses core musculature
- Core influence on thoracic sling engagement
- How distal limb health is related to core strength
- The link to true self carriage and movement efficiency
- Signs of poor vs good core health- both standing still and in motion
Want to join us on our mission to empower horse people across the world with the skills they need to create their horse's best posture... join our next cohort of the Equine Functional Posture Course.
