Wendy Murdoch: How Body Awareness Transforms Horse and Rider

In this enlightening episode, Paula Curtis explores the fascinating link between body awareness, balance, and horse behavior with special guest Wendy Murdoch, creator of the SureFoot Equine Stability Pads. Together, they dive into how the Feldenkrais Method helps riders become more conscious of their movement, creating subtle yet profound shifts in how horses respond. Wendy shares how mindful movement and exploration not only improve rider safety and effectiveness but also deepen trust and communication between horse and human. Through curiosity, attention, and play, both horse and rider discover a new way of learning—one that honors the body, the mind, and the quiet wisdom of the horse.
