Flow for Riders: Winter Solstice Special

Sunday mornings in winter. Dark evenings at the yard. Mud, layers, frozen fingers and constantly checking what time the sun sets.

The Winter Solstice marks the turning point. The shortest day of the year and, finally, the moment the light starts to return.

​

So, just before Christmas, we’re taking 2.5 hours to celebrate it.

This special extended Flow for Riders session combines an energising rider-focused Vinyasa flow with deeply relaxing Yin, followed by mulled wine, mince pies and a little Christmas gift to take home.

​

No horse to think about for a couple of hours. This bit is for you.
 

1 Hour Flow for Riders

A strong but accessible Vinyasa flow designed specifically around the demands riding places on your body.

We’ll work on:

• Core strength and stability
• Balance and body awareness
• Hip mobility
• Flexibility and range of movement
• Releasing the areas riders commonly hold tension
• Moving with greater ease both in and out of the saddle

​

You don’t need to be flexible or an experienced yogi. The focus is on using yoga to complement your riding and help your body feel stronger, more mobile and more balanced.
 

45 Minutes of Yin
 

Then we change pace completely.

​

We’ll move into a slow, quiet Yin practice using longer, supported holds to allow the body to soften and release.

​

After the physical work of the flow, this is your opportunity to stop doing for a while.

We’ll focus on releasing tension, slowing the breath and giving the nervous system a chance to settle.

​

No rushing. No jobs to get done. Just 45 minutes to properly switch off.

And then, we celebrate
 

We’ll finish with mulled wine and mince pies, plus a little Christmas gift bag for everyone to take home.

​

A chance to chat, relax and celebrate making it through the darkest part of winter.

Because if you own horses, you know exactly why the Winter Solstice deserves celebrating.

​

Please bring a yoga mat and an optional cushion and throw for Yin.
