Perfecting Your Seat Clinic with Mariana Broucher

Mariana Broucher is a BHS accredited coach who originally qualified as an instructor and judge in Germany and The Czech Republic. Mariana is also a fully qualified and insured Bowen practitioner. Having ridden competitive dressage up to IM 1, she has also been the Czech Young Rider Dressage Champion an accomplished five times. With over 20 years of experience teaching internationally and travelling regularly to the Czech Republic for dressage clinics, Mariana enjoys teaching riders of all ages and abilities.

The sessions are designed to help the everyday rider improve communication with their horse, regardless of their experience or ambition. Improvement of the rider’s position and seat will in turn help them correctly apply the aids.

Mariana works with the riders to improve their balance, seat, suppleness and aiding with the help of simple exercises both on the horse and dismounted. With her natural ways of interaction, she is then able to advise on alternative methods to get the best from the horse. The bean bag exercise has been described as a light bulb moment for some of our riders, as it helps their seat in sitting trot and canter.

The sessions are all filmed and afterwards Mariana will send the video over to you, along with photos and an individual written assessment with effective exercises to work on in the future.

Entries can be made online via Equo Events.

Confirmed dates for 2019 are as follows:

All the sessions are 60 minutes long and are available to individuals or groups of 2 or 3 riders.
