TRÉNINK A BODYWORK:
jak správně nastavit tréninkový plán a základy manuální terapie koní pro majitele

 

O ČEM TO BUDE?

Během tohoto dvoudenního semináře se účastníci naučí rozpoznat správnou biomechaniku koně a jak ji rozvíjet při lonžování, práci ze země a také pomocí cílených posilovacích cvičení. Naučí se rozeznávat tělesné nedostatky a pohybové vzorce koně, aby podle toho byli schopni vytvořit tréninkový plán na míru. V praktických lekcích si osvojí několik základních bodyworkových technik, které koni umožní plně a zdravým, vyváženým způsobem pracovat s jeho tělem. Lektorky jsou si vědomé toho, že dosažení plného atletického potenciálu a zároveň udržení těla a mysli koně zdravými, je obtížný úkol, se kterým mnoho majitelů koní zápasí. K tomu, aby se to podařilo, je třeba trénovat nejen mysl koně, ale také jeho myofasciální a nervový systém. Toho se dá dosáhnout vyváženou kombinací správného tréninku a aplikací bodyworkových technik.

Asymmetry in saddle fitting
the effect of asymmetry on saddle, horse and rider

 

The course will be conducted in English and will be INTERPRETED into Czech*

WHAT WILL IT BE ABOUT?

During this seminar, led by Georgie Welge, we will cover the basic principles of saddle fitting, topline syndrome, symmetry, but the emphasis will be on recognizing asymmetries in the horse, rider and saddle. We will look at rider biomechanics, the role of rider balance in the saddle and we will also focus on rider compensatory mechanisms.

The course will include a theoretical and practical part concerning horses and people (riders), both on the ground and in the saddle (demo riders).

Detailed information about the programme can be found HERE.

Between the theoretical and practical part it will be necessary to move from the Veveří Hotel to the Nové Dvory stable area (see map). These two locations are about 1km apart on an asphalt road. Please note in advance that there is unfortunately no pavement around the road. However, the route is not complicated and will be explained during the course :)

It is not possible to come to the course with your own horse.

Completing this course does not make you a saddle fitter.

*unless all of the participants will be comfortable with English language

ÚVOD
LEKTORKA

LECTURER

Georgie Welge is a qualified saddle fitter with over 15 years experience in saddle fitting, based in the UK. She is the first saddle fitter to gain four separate qualifications in saddle fitting and has a comprehensive and varied knowledge of not only saddles, but horses and riders.

Georgie is continuously deepening her education also in other areas that are needed for saddle-fitting, for example biomechanics, horse and rider's anatomy etc. Apart from her saddle-fitting practice she also gives lectures at UK's universities.

 

She is also the founder and director of Master Saddle Fitters International (MSFI). Through MSFI, she travels the world providing saddle fitting education. She works closely with many veterinarians and trainers, biomechanics experts, physiotherapists, dentists, farriers and many other professionals to develop and deepen her knowledge.

She is an advisor on two professional committees that oversee the qualifications for teaching new saddle fitters.

 

"All horses are individuals. One thing I learnt very quickly is that what may work for one horse, won’t necessarily work for another. It’s all about figuring out what will work for the horse in front of me.."

WHAT DO I LEARN?

The basics of saddle fitting principles for horse owners with special emphasis on the effect of asymmetry (horse and rider) on saddle fit, both in terms of fit for the horse and fit for the rider. 

DO I HAVE TO KNOW ENGLISH?

No :), the lecturer is from Great Britain, so the communication language will be English, but the content of the course, lessons and questions and answers will be translated into Czech.

WHAT I NEED
TO PARTICIPATE?

A notebook, a pen, enthusiasm and a desire to learn :). We also recommend warm clothes, the afternoon sessions will be held in the indoor arena, where it can be quite cold. 

WHO IS THE COURSE SUITABLE FOR?

For anyone who works (professionally or recreationally) with horses, riders and saddles and wants to learn more about asymmetry and its effect on the horse, rider and saddle.
