Yoga With Horses

Mounted yoga balances horse, rider

Explore yoga principles of balance and flexibility for both you and your horse. This program is unique because we provide instruction in yoga for humans along with flexibility and balance exercises for your horse. That's right, yoga with horses and yoga for horses!

Yoga for Equestrians in "paddock dress"Horsewoman and yoga instructor Jenny Kendall of Desert Horse Yoga introduces techniques for humans that include yoga matwork tailored for equestrians, yoga in "paddock dress" and yoga on horseback. Riding instructor Stacey Kollman adds an introductory series of groundwork exercises that promote suppleness and self-carriage for horses.

This work is suitable for all ages and levels of riders - beginners through advanced - and any well-mannered horse can be a great yoga partner. Ground and mounted yoga exercises are gentle and focused on improving body awareness, stability and comfort.

Bringing together you and your horse through yoga deepens your relationship and provides new ways of experiencing movement and balance.
