Steddy Freddy

To build your own "Steddy Freddy," follow these steps:
  1. Materials You Need:
  2. A saddle with a tree (not a pad, as it needs to be stable).
  3. Stirrups.
  4. Setup:
  5. Place the saddle on a stable surface, such as a sawhorse or a sturdy table, so it doesn't move when you sit in it. Use your fantasy! I have had students that have used their motorbike;)!
  6. Adjust the Stirrups:
  7. Shorten the stirrup leathers by at least 4-5 holes shorter than your normal riding length. This will give you a good stance with bent knees.
  8. Positioning:
  9. Sit in the saddle with your feet in the stirrups. The adjustment of the stirrup leathers should provide you with a stable and comfortable position, similar to a half-seat when riding.
  10. Test Your Balance:
  11. While sitting in the saddle, test your balance by gently leaning forward and backward. Make any necessary adjustments to ensure the saddle is stable.
By following these steps, you create a stable platform where you can practice your seat and balance without needing to be on a horse. Good luck with your training on Steddy Freddy!

Identifye Your EXPECTATIONS
In a rather clumsy way… you are your own enemy. Yep, that little negative parrot in your head? It’s sitting there, squawking away, making you trip over your own feet and believe the illusion. 🙃
It whispers doubts, feeds fears, and convinces you that you're stuck. But here’s the thing—it’s just noise. Just an old, broken record that you don’t have to dance to.
So maybe… it’s time to teach that parrot a new song? 🎶 😉
