Stretch And Ride Addresses Common Riding Problems
with fun, easy, and inspiring lessons
The Position Problem: You struggle with your position when riding. You're told: sit straighter, shoulders back, heels down!
But it just won't work, leaving you feeling stuck, frustrated and assuming there's something wrong with you and/or your horse. It's not your fault!
Riding should be based on feel, and when we are taught in a way that tells us "what" to do, it does not allow us to figure out "how" to do it in a way that is right for us.
The Solution: A series of fun and unique exercises setting the stage for biomechanically correct riding.
Where openness, curiosity, and self discovery are the tools used to help you find your own best position.
NOW... you're having fun exploring new patterns of movement in a non threatening way, as you discover a clear and better way to find your own best position.
The Unresponsive Problem: Your horse seems dull, sour or disinterested.
How can a horse help it when their rider is stiff as a board, contorting their body into the "perfect" position - and cuing them at all the wrong times.
The Solution: Loosen up and ride, allowing more ease, balance, and comfort for you and your horse.
Enjoy 12 ridden stretch flow exercises, designed to get you in the groove, and ready to ride your best!
These surprisingly simple exercises will get you flowing around with your partner, so you both feel the joy of an effortless ride!
NOW... you are both enjoying yourselves, and it feels more like play than training.
The Tight Shoulders Problem: Your shoulders are tight and you can't seem to shrug off the tension and nerves.
Doubts and concerns worm their way through your brain, hijacking your thoughts, and your ride...
It's OK. Every rider feels this way at one time or another.
The Solution: A series of 24 progressive step-by-step exercises guaranteed to release tension and slow a racing heart.
Imagine your tension melting, as your confidence begins to grow. Rough choppy waters turn to smooth sailing, your supple loose body effortlessly following the waves of your horse's movement.
NOW... you become what your horse needs most from you: a relaxed, balanced confident rider, present and in the moment, without fear, anxiety, tension or bracing.

What students say about Stretch And Ride:
"Riders need to warmup too! : )
I LOVE the shoulder stretches since I hold so much tension around my shoulder blades. I can really feel my muscles relax which in turns helps my horse to loosen and relax. I also really like the leg stretches. Not only does it feel good but also makes me aware of my position and balance. It also teaches you to be self aware by making you ask yourself questions regarding the stretches. Definitely a must have!" ~ Jon
"A fantastic resource! So many people hear about the special things elite athletes do get in touch with their bodies and then treat those practices as just being for those elite athletes. This is a tool that anyone can afford and can use to improve themselves as a rider and to become a better collaborator with their horse!" ~ Kyle
"Excellent... Be ready to grow your connection with your horse!" ~ Jenny
"Great ideas to help horse and rider.
What I liked the most was that she was most concerned about what the horse thought of all the exercises. The exercises were easy to understand. It should be useful for the advanced rider in all disciplines and for instructors to pass on to beginner riders.
If we as riders find the correct balance in our seat, our horses will perform much better and without discomfort." ~ Gretchen

Cuddle up with my best selling book!
Inside this fantastic companion to the Stretch And Ride System, you'll learn:
- How ordinary training oftentimes removes us from the thinking-feeling state necessary to connect with our bodies and with our horses and what to do about it
- Why “ordinary equitation” may be harming both you and your horse, and how to find a position that helps, not hinders you
- How to let go of old limiting patterns of movement, bringing in new beneficial patterns easily and readily
- How stretching reduces fear, freeing you to intentionally practice positions that may not be natural, allowing you to learn that even though you feel out of control, the body still has balance and ability to stabilize
- The secret to independence of the aids, as you become a quieter more effective rider, allowing for clear and accurate communication
- What NOT to do if you want swift and dramatic improvements in finding your own functional, centered, balanced position AND How to do it WITHOUT stiffness or force
- How shifting your intentions and focusing on yourself takes the pressure to perform off of the horse, creating relaxation. A relaxed horse is far easier to train than a tense horse
