RIDER BALANCE
Balance and position in the saddle is displayed on screen - this allows the instructor to analyse and assess what a rider is doing, using information also collected from the rein sensors and leg sensors
Practice a test
As well as basic ground work, the Dressage Simulator allows riders to practise a number of pre-programmed tests or practice their own.
AUTO-TRAINING ROUTINE
The auto-training routine is a firm favourite with instructors as it provides a meaningful and repeatable assessment of rider balance, bit contact and leg pressure though the gaits. It is excellent for assessing what a rider does in the saddle whilst moving completely automatically though walk, trot and canter. All sensors activity is recorded for 1 or 2 minutes and results can be printed off afterwards.
features of the Dressage Simulator
For many with physical and/or mental disabilities, horse riding offers a therapy that they simply cannot achieve elsewhere. The Racewood Dressage Simulator offers the same, rhythmical, life-like motion of our other simulators, and can carry riders of up to 16 stone. The simulator can be run all day, whatever the weather, allowing schools to offer riding lessons and therapies round the clock, in a safe and controlled environment.
Specialist RDA software
Working directly with RDA in the UK, Racewood has developed a NEW, digital landscape. Based on the countryside challenge, riders can explore over 4,000 acres of land, ranging from a stroll through a village, a hack through the woods or a ride on the beach. Interactive features allow the rider to engage with the environment.
