What?

 

Equitum means rider in Latin and ECS is the coaching system I have, created to uplevel riders, physically and mentally.

 

As horse riders we are focused on training our horses, but often forget to train ourselves. Since the horse and the rider are a team, we should have equal focus on our own posture and position, as we have on the horse´s. One of the aims in dressage riding, is improving the symmetry and balance of the horse. If we are to achieve balance, when riding as a team, even the rider must have symmetry and balance.

​

My system is customized to fit each horse rider´s individual needs for improvement. Your desire to shift something starts with awareness and consciousness.  

 

I work with alignment, biomechanics, strength, mobility, coordination and balance to create stability and suppleness in the saddle. Becoming an equilateral rider with a centered and balanced seat can dramatically improve your horses movement and it also creates a great pictures that judges likes to see.

​

During competitions you and the horse may often tense up. However, with knowledge of your energy system and breathing techniques, we can positively affect both ourselves and our horse. The calmness we generate will reverberate through us to our horse. Breathing and relaxation also play an important part in our own recovery.

 

As a coach and therapist, I work with CBT therapy, ACT, mental training, stress management, meditation and mindfulness. With clear goal setting, planning, strategy and structure I will help you reach your goals as a horse rider.

​

The ECS system complements your riding perfectly, because it helps us both explore and strengthen your weaknesses. The ultimate goal as a rider is to "become one with your horse", to unite and form one entity. Simply put, that is what ECS does for you.
