Send us your feedback!The best ever story about stirrup length, and how in other sports, it’s all about angles. You cannot not influence your horse - he is constantly reading your ability to support your own body weight (or not), your asymmetry, how wibbly-wobbly you are, how ‘shovey’ you are, wether you can match the forces of his movement etc. He knows more about you than you know about yourself! The possible effects of being given the wrong map, and how communication in riding arenas goes awry.
