Description: This rally focuses on improving both rider and pony fitness, helping combinations perform at their best throughout the season.
The session will begin with 30 minutes of dismounted rider fitness, including exercises to develop core strength, balance, flexibility, and overall conditioning. These exercises are designed specifically to support riding position, stability, and effectiveness in the saddle.
This will be followed by 1 hour of ridden pony fitness work, tailored to ability. Sessions may include structured flatwork, pole exercises, interval training, and controlled canter work to build stamina, strength, and cardiovascular fitness safely and progressively.
