body’s full potential.
Every movement of the rider’s body starts in the brain. In
these pages, Olympic competitor and coach Marc N?ke explains how to direct the
specific areas of the brain that control stability, sense of rhythm, precision
of movement, breathing, and vision. With his unique brain-focused exercises,
riders learn how to change the input sent to their brain to get
healthier, more athletic output, which can include intentional and
unintentional movement, and functions of circulatory, hormonal, or immune
systems.
The brain decides how you ride and how you feel when you
ride based on the input you send it. Traditionally equestrians have
worked to improve the brain’s output (riding skills) by training the output
(riding skills). N?ke’s innovative “Neuro-Rider Program” is based on achieving
better output (better riding skills), not by endlessly practicing the
movements, but instead by changing the input–what you send to your brain
for it to process and interpret.
In a series of over 40 unique exercises, N?ke helps riders
improve the signals they send to their brain from the:
– Visual system
– Vestibular system
– Respiratory system
Regular practice will improve the rider’s overall
performance as well as address specific issues, such as:
– Body symmetry
– Head posture
– Hand position
– Anxiety in certain situations
– Inappropriate emotions and emotional responses
– Difficulties with rhythm
– Unlevel hips
– Shoulder crookedness
– Focus and concentration
In time, Neuro-Rider training will make you feel lighter on
horseback, help you follow the horse’s movements more naturally, increase your
relaxation in the saddle, and enable you to become more effective overall. With
options to perform exercises on or off the horse, this book offers a practical
way for any rider–regardless of age, ability, discipline, or time–to steadily
improve in distinct and profound ways.
