Dynamic Saddles are designed
by FEI level international rider,
trainer and clinician Peter
Grigoriev after years of study
and experimentation in
conjunction with the most
talented master saddlers.
Dynamic: a basic force,
especially one that motivates,
affects development or stability
pertaining to or characterized
by energy or effective action.
Active or energetic: pertaining
to force related to motion.
That’s why!!! These are all
words that we like to see in
reference to our horses:
Motivation, Development,
Stability, Active and Energetic.
The Dynamic Tree gives the
horse true freedom of
movement and transfers part
of the energy of the hind end
into lateral dynamics of its
body. This allows and
enhances the lateral flexion,
while maintaining the structure
of the saddle and all
dimensional flexibility.
In other words…the horse is
able to
bend and the tree bends with
him without the saddle losing
its structural integrity. It also
allows a rider to take a
classical seat, encouraging the
horse to engage and carry the
rider’s weight from the hind
end. Under the rider’s weight
the tree accepts the shapes of
the horse’s body, not only
while at rest but while in
motion as well. It changes
shape in the same way as the
horse’s body does while
moving, growing and
developing. This makes the
saddle fitting challenge a far
less daunting task. The Saddle
is designed to accommodate
the anatomy and
bio-mechanical ability of horses
and riders; for both men and
women. When properly
positioned on the horse’s back,
it positively effects the static
and dynamic equilibriums and
gives maximum freedom to the
shoulders.
The Dynamic tree of the saddle
fits most horses; high withered
as well as wide backed animals
and nearly all in between.
Because the fit is correct, it
gives real freedom of
movement and allows non
restricted lateral flexion. The
flexible properties allow the
saddle, under the rider’s
weight, to produce lateral aids,
directed from the twist area on
each side every time horse
uses hind legs. In these
saddles, most riders find that
they are able to truly
loosen/relax their pelvic area,
which in turn makes sitting to
the horse much easier. The
enhanced feel of the horse is
incredible and as there are no
restrictions from the saddle,
the horse’s performance goes
up; vet bills come down.
Horses are happier, riders are
happier. Happiness abounds.
Only superior quality leathers
and materials are being used
in making the saddles. The
craftsmanship is of the highest
standards and is delivered by
an experienced team of
professionals with innovative
minds. Foam is used in the
panels to eliminate the
constant saga of re-flocking,
re–stuffing and re-fitting.
What
to expect: Initially, the rider
may feel that the saddle
pushes them forward. If
however, they sit back and
relax the pelvis/open the hip
joints and give themselves and
their horse some time, after
10-15 minutes, the sensation
of leaning forward will
disappear and the rider will
truly experience feeling the
horse’s movement. Let the
seat and hips follow the swing
with the horse’s back and
body. In other words “do
nothing…but do nothing very
well.” Take the most Dynamic
ride of your life today. |
