Welcome to Equiseat Aid PROMOTING A STABLE SEAT, FOR THE STRAIGHTNESS OF HORSE & RIDER

What is Equiseat Aid?

A more balanced seat. A more confident ride.

Feel straighter, more secure and better connected to your horse with the Equiseat Aid.

Great riding starts with the rider. That’s why Equiseat Aid focuses on your position, helping you build a more balanced, effective seat so you and your horse can work better together.

By encouraging you to release the grip through your dominant leg and thigh, Equiseat Aid helps you engage your seat bone and encourages your weaker leg to work more actively—supporting a more even position in the saddle.

From dressage and jumping to everyday riding, discover the difference a more balanced seat can make. Watch the video below to hear how Equiseat Aid has helped one customer improve her stability and balance.

Could better rider balance help your horse move more evenly? Discover encouraging findings from a six-week Equiseat Aid study carried out by Dr. David Marlin and Prof. Roberta Blake from ACU Writtle and read the full report.

Overall movement asymmetry reduced by 13.5%. Researchers also recorded statistically significant reductions in each of the measured head and pelvic asymmetry outcomes. 

"Rider balance is important for both horse back health, competitive performance and rider security and safety in the saddle. 

Rider imbalance can occur for many reasons, including injury, rider asymmetry and suboptimal rider technique, often which the rider isn’t aware of. 

Anything that helps to reduce the asymmetry of the rider will be beneficial to both the horse and the rider."

How Does Equiseat Aid Work?

We all have our quirks in the saddle, often due to long-term habits or the influence of our horses and ponies. Most of us are, in fact, asymmetrical riders. Rider asymmetry can lead to back soreness, hind leg lameness, and other wear and tear issues in horses.

This is why Equiseat Aid was created. Equiseat Aid fits around your stronger leg, preventing you from gripping up and shifting your weight to the opposite side. It helps engage your hips symmetrically, aligning your shoulders and pelvis, and evenly distributing your seat bones in the saddle. This also straightens your upper body through the spine.
