It’s all about AWAREness (A Woman’s Approach to Riding Effectively~), a series of tips signalling key points on health, fitness, nutrition, safety, and comfort.

Designed for experienced riders as well as newcomers, this indispensable resource guide provides information on:

Saddle balancing and fitting tips

Safety tools

Riding and its relationship to ageing, pregnancy, and lifestyles

Nutrition and dietary factors in daily riding and competitions

In Fitness, Performance and the Female Equestrian, Mary D. Midkiff, a rider and horse business professional, offers a new perspective on the way horses are understood, equipped and ridden by women. She joins with other experts to take us through the changing dynamics of women on horseback, arriving at a new approach to riding effectiveness.

Women now represent over 80 percent of today’s horse enthusiasts and riders. The techniques, equipment and teaching methods used with horses, however, have not moved in step with the growing involvement and influence of adult and young women.

Until now.
