Charlotte Jorst, an accomplished American Grand Prix rider, began her equestrian journey at 35 and took up dressage even later. Now at 60, she emphasizes the importance of lifelong learning in riding, focusing on harmony and partnership with her horse. Jorst credits the Dave Thind/Feldenkrais Method for enhancing her riding skills, particularly in body awareness and coordination.
Her training regimen combines classical techniques with yoga and meticulous horse management, highlighting the significance of consistent practice. The Dave Thind Method (DTM) offers unique tools that help refine movement patterns, contributing to improved performance in dressage. In celebration of Women’s Health & Longevity Month, DTM is promoting its Skeletal Strength Course, which is designed specifically for riders.
The DTM Skeletal Strength Course focuses on gentle neuromuscular movements to enhance skeletal function and reduce strain, rather than replacing traditional exercise. Participants can expect benefits such as improved posture, balance, and overall riding ease. Jorst advocates for this course, emphasizing the importance of bone health and longevity in riding, making it a valuable resource for riders seeking to enhance their skills and well-being.
