Words that are so true == "the rider must learn to control himself before he can control his horse." Working on the Equicizer helps the rider improve body awareness and create neuro-muscular control in order to develop independent aids!!!!! For over 8 years now, I have witnessed my Equicizer, Ichiban, helping riders improve their position by developing coordination, improving alignment, vertical and lateral balance, flexibility and contact, creating core muscle strength, body stabilization, cardio vascular endurance and creating muscle memory to hard wire the correct position! The results are indisputable!! Kathy Graber
