Riding is much more than kick to go and pull to stop. To truly ride, you must find your centered seat which is the key to your body language and communication with your horse. Seat position affects steering, gaits, leads and more and provides the transition to eventually be able to ride your horse without a bridle. In this very thorough series, Chris teaches you how to develop your centered seat. Regardless of your discipline, this DVD will teach you the correct equestrian seat.

Chris illustrates his three seat positions for you, then works with a student with seat and balance issues. The series culminates in a demonstration of bridleless riding by one of Chris’ students who Chris has taught to use their centered seat.

There is no greater joy in life than becoming one with your horse and learning to ride in rhythm and harmony together. Let Chris show you how to that harmony happen!
