Welcome:~ The Seaway Valley AHA is a proud member organization Of the Arabian Horse Association and AHA Region 18
Our
ride flyer is up on the event board, but we have some more details on folks who
will be presenting at the Stormont Training Ride hosted by Seaway Valley Arabian
Horse Association (www.seawayvalleyarab.com). Monitoring
your Horse's Heart Rate: Wendy
McCoubrey and Lynda Townsend will be joining us to do show-and-tell with Polar
heart rate monitors. Polar has some exciting new equipment and Wendy has
kindly offered to to talk about the importance of monitoring your horse's heart
rate, to show the new equipment to us, and to let folks try them out. Equestrian
Fitness: After
Christoph Shork made such a big deal about equestrian fitness at the APEX
clinic, we thought we would be remiss if we didn't include some great
information on how to keep you, the rider, as fit as your horse. Heather
Sansom of Equifitt will be joining us all day on Saturday and giving a talk on
key points of equestrian fitness during the dinner on Saturday night. Heather
is offering two specials specifically for the training ride. First,
Heather is offering a mini-clinic rider assessment. The special includes
mounted and unmounted posture, alignment, bio-mechanic and flexibility
assessment. Individuals receive clinician’s assessment notes and
specific exercise recommendations to take home. The mini-assessment takes
approximately 20-25 minutes. Cost for this is assessment is $20 (book in advance
to ensure your assessment time). Heather will also be offering ride-day
assisted stretching. Relaxation therapy for your muscles, ligaments and joints.
Techniques are used to achieve deep muscle relaxation while improving your
flexibility and range of motion in a pain-free treatment. 10 minutes for $10.
For more information, please see the SVAHA website to see Heather's Ride Day
specials and please also visit Heather's website to find out more information on
