Get you and your barn energized and increase your knowledge with one of Tina’s unique biomechanics and postural asssesment clinics. On March 6th, 2010, Tina Watkins of Inhand Equine Therapy presented a day of lectures and demonstrations entitled 'The Biomechanics of Jumping' to a crowd of around 20 horse enthusiasts at Grayton Farms Ltd in Priddis, AB. The topics covered included skeletal and muscular structures, how these systems interact and work together, and how all of this is affected when a rider is added to the equation. Having live horses painted with bones on one side and muscles on the other offered such a great visual for the attendees of the clinic to see how things happen when a horse is in motion and when a horse jumps. There were many great, thoughtful questions with equally as informative answers from our presenter. At the end of the
one-day course everybody left more enlightened about this sport than when they came, and it was a great way to learn in equine environment.
