With my broken-ankled hiatus from riding, I got to spend a lot of time watching other people's clinics/lessons and was really able to learn a lot about how much rider position affects the horse.
This is an appropriate video since after all that observation, I really decided I need to do a lot of work on my position.
The research you put into a lot of these posts is admirable. I find them fun and informative to read!
She is amazing - I saw her ride at Hadlow College here in the UK where she joined her coach, Mary Wanless, at a biomechanics of riding seminar. She really knows how to position her body to get exact response - it was fascinating to watch her getting on a horse she never sat on before, a very avarage, unbalanced horse, and how she changed it in matter of minutes.
