VIDEO: Tai Chi for Riders with Matt Brown
We are bringing you select content from the 2018 USEA Annual Meeting & Convention on demand in partnership with RNS Video Media, giving you a chance to relive all the action!
High performance eventer Matt Brown has been studying martial arts for over 25 years and has used the principles and techniques he has learned in the dojo to help develop himself while in the tack. At the 2018 USEA Annual Meeting & Convention, Brown instructed a class designed to help riders increase their balance and partnership skills by using techniques from the ancient Chinese art of Tai Chi Chuan. The strength gained through this type of martial arts training can often be very useful to riders due to the increased flexibility, body awareness, and posture that goes along with the training. Brown coached attendees through a series of postures before moving to a partner exercise designed to increase awareness of balance and tension.
