This is the 8th International equitation science conference, and it marks the 10th anniversary since equitation science first became established as an area of serious international study and collaboration. We are delighted that ISES has returned to Edinburgh University and the vet school, where the first informal gathering of equine scientists, veterinarians and practitioners, took place in October 2004. We are also especially proud to be able to welcome our international colleagues here to the UK during Olympic year. Each year, the Society goes from strength to strength, and last year’s landmark event in the Netherlands made big strides with the ISES and Global Dressage Forum members coming together to observe, discuss and debate current issues in equitation, and to explore how a scientific approach could be incorporated and applied in the real world with the cooperation of practitioners from all disciplines and at all levels. To be honest, the ISES UK local organizing committee did wonder how they could possibly match what proved to be an excellent and highly informative few days. For 2012, we have returned to our academic roots to allow us to review and reflect upon where we are with equitation science and look at ways we can navigate the road ahead. Themed sessions will provide us with excellent presentations drawn from more than 150 submitted abstracts in which we will be provided with the opportunity to consider both rider inputs and measurement, impacts on horse health, welfare and performance and the incorporation of an evidence based approach to riding, training and coaching. Finally we will look forward – to what next 5 for equitation science – in relation to education, further studies and enhancing understanding and uptake amongst all stakeholders who have the potential to influence the welfare of the horse. We are extremely grateful to the University of Edinburgh, Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies Dean, Professor David Argyle and the veterinary school staff for all of their support and tolerance over the past 9 months, and colleagues in the UK and internationally who generously gave of their time to advise, review and provide equipment as we prepared for the conference. This conference has been kindly sponsored by a number of wonderful organizations and businesses and we are extremely grateful to them. We are also grateful to our plenary speakers and practical day presenters, session chairs, mini- oral chairs, technical helpers, student helpers, staff in the equine unit at Oatridge college, Scottish National Equine Centre and finally our guest moderator for the practical day – for agreeing to help make this conference a success. We are also indebted to our conference organizers and especially Bridget Hilton and Mike Steele for their hard work behind the scenes. We hope that in addition to enjoying the scientific and social programme including the practical day, you will also take the opportunity to enjoy the many sights of Edinburgh city, to venture into the stunning Scottish countryside and to sample the culinary delights so special to Scotland. You will find that despite the sometimes cooler weather – the warmth of our Scottish hospitality is second to none. Finally we would like to say: Fàilte gu Alba...Welcome to Scotland! Professor Natalie Waran - on behalf of the ISES UK 2012 Local Conference Organising Committee 6 PRESIDENT’S WELCOME Welcome to ISES 2012! After 10 years of equitation science, it is wonderful to return to Edinburgh, the site of one of our most formative meetings – a workshop on the application of learning theory in ridden horses. I am therefore most grateful to Professor David Argyle, Dean of the Royal (Dick) School for Veterinary Studies (RDSVS) and the Associate Deans, Professors Susan Rhind and Brendan Corcoran, for welcoming ISES to the University of Edinburgh and providing us with use of the impressive new veterinary school teaching building. I also wish to thank the staff at the RDSVS for their support during the run-up to the conference and in particular to the staff in the Learning and Teaching Support Unit and those in the vet school’s facilities and safety team. Much has happened in the past ten years and ISES is now taking its rightful place as a leader in evidence-based debates considering ethical and sustainable equitation. Most ISES scientists ride or compete on a regular basis, so we see our discipline as an investment in our passion for horses. We use data to inform our position and practice. Apart from all the science and engagement, ISES also prides itself on being a friendly society and that is why I am especially keen to greet first-time conference attendees. Our membership secretary, Lesley Hawson, has been doing a wonderful job contacting as many of you as possible but please track her down over the next day or so if you have yet to meet her. For some of you this will be your first scientific meeting. Please do not be daunted. We have supplied a glossary of terms (page 173) that often crop up and a quick guide to statistics (page 178) which will help to explain why so many “p-values” are quoted in the ensuing abstracts. If these guides fail to assist you to 7 gain the most from any presentation, ask your neighbour to help identify a Council member who can explain. As a society of eager volunteers, we are developing a corporate understanding of how to deliver the sort of conferences our members want. Every year we see improvements in the delivery of content and the greater inclusion of participants at all levels of training, competition and research. This evolution hinges entirely on feedback from delegates, so please take time to complete a feedback form before the final day. On behalf of the ISES Council, I extend my sincere thanks to Natalie Waran, Hayley Randle and Lisa Ashton, Mike Steele, Brigit Hilton, Frances Reid, Charlie Nevison and Carol Hall and the local organizing committee, including Dr Jo-Anne Murray, Bryony Wagget, Jane Barr, Tudor Jones and Gemma Pearson for bringing together an exciting event. The scientific program reflects the hard work of the Scientific Committee who have again responded to feedback and have re- doubled their efforts to ensure that the pick of the crop is presented. I am most grateful to these reviewers, not least because this year we have had more abstracts submitted than ever. This increase speaks of the growing interest in and maturity of our young discipline. I hope it ensures that you have an enjoyable and edifying conference.

    Physiological Demands of Eventing and Performance Related Fitness in Female Horse Riders

    Physiological Demands of Eventing and Performance Related Fitness in Female Horse Riders J. Douglas A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the University’s requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2017 University of Worcester ! DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is a presentation of my own original research work and all the written work and investigations are entirely my own. Wherever contributions of others are involved, this is clearly acknowledged and referenced. I declare that no portion of the work referred to in this thesis has been submitted for another degree or qualification of any comparable award at this or any other university or other institution of learning. Signed: Date: I ! ABSTRACT Introduction: Scientific investigations to determine physiological demands and performance characteristics in sports are integral and necessary to identify general fitness, to monitor training progress, and for the development, prescription and execution of successful training interventions. To date, there is minimal evidence based research considering the physiological demands and physical characteristics required for the equestrian sport of Eventing. Therefore, the overarching aim of this thesis was to investigate the physiological demands of Eventing and performance related fitness in female riders. Method: The primary aim was achieved upon completion of three empirical studies. Chapter Three: Anthropometric and physical fitness characteristics and training and competition practices of Novice, Intermediate and Advanced level female Event riders were assessed in a laboratory based physical fitness test battery. Chapter Four: The physiological demands and physical characteristics of Novice level female event riders throughout the three phases of Novice level one-day Eventing (ODE) were assessed in a competitive Eventing environment.

    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS. Heavy or draft horse breeds For additional information, see horse breed, horse breeding and the individual articles listed below.

Disse forbund repræsenterer følgende racer: Knabstrupper Sportsridehest: Frederiksborg, Oldenborg, Trakehner, Araber, Dansk Varmblod, Holstener og Engelsk Fuldblod. Knabstrupper af Klassisk type: Frederiksborg, Lusitano og Andaluser Knabstrupper Pony: Trakehner, Araber, Engelsk Fuldblod, New Forest, Welsh (sec. A & B samt part- bred), Connemare, Dansk Sportspony samt Dartmoor. Knabstrupper Miniaturepony: Welsh (sec. A & B samt part-bred), Dartmoor, Shetlænder og Miniaturehest. Udenfor Danmarks grænser kan avlsledelsen udvide indkrydsningslisten med tilsvarende forbund, og det er, hvad efterfølgende liste repræsenterer. Listen er opdelt geografisk og ikke efter avlsprogrammer, da en del udenlandske forbund spænder over flere racer og dermed er aktuelle for flere Avlsprogrammer. Bemærk at nogle af disse avlsforbund også omfatter en hel del racer, som IKKE er tilladte til indkrydsning i KNN! Det anbefales, at man altid rådspørger hos Avlsledelsen først for at sikre sig, at den pågældende hest, som man påtænker at anvende til indkrydsning, kan godkendes. Den enkelte hest skal leve op til KNNs krav til afstamning, bedømmelse, afprøvning, farve og øvrige regler. I den sidste ende vil det altid være op til Avlsledelsens skøn, om en indkrydsning kan tillades. Listen udvides og redigeres i takt med,

    Horsesense Learning Levels

    HorseSense Learning Levels A Progression of Horsemanship Skills All riding requirements must be met with the student demonstrating a safe, basic balanced position: heels down, eyes up, quiet hands, and a line running from the head through the shoulder and hip to the heel. RISING RIDER LEVEL – RAINBOW The Rainbow Level is an introductory level for young riders aged 4 through 7, who are not yet able to ride and care for a pony independently. Rainbow Level riders should always practice their skills with the supervision and assistance of an instructor! I take regular lessons - at least once a month - with a knowledgeable instructor. I always wear boots and an ASTM-SEI approved helmet when I am working around horses. I can put on my helmet myself and show you how it fits correctly. I can tell you how to dress safely for riding. I can show you how to correctly approach a pony, and how to move around a pony safely - including walking around behind. I can tell you why you have to groom a pony and pick out his feet before every ride. I can help my instructor or an older, more experienced rider prepare for a ride. I help with the grooming, cleaning hooves, and putting on the saddle and bridle. When I am a little bit bigger, I will be able to tack up a pony without any help. I can show you the basic parts of a saddle and bridle, such as the bit, reins, stirrups and girth. I can lead a pony safely, both with a halter and lead rope and with the bridle reins.

    Beginner through Advanced - English Riding – Summer Programs ADULTS – YOUTH – TEENS- EVENING- JUMPING – TRAIL RIDING – DRESSAGE – GAMES – GYMKHANA – DRILL - HORSECARE Contry Hill’s Summer Riding Camp About our Program Contry Hill Farm offers full and half day co-ed English summer riding camps. At the farm, we teach children, ages 5 and up, of all riding levels. Summer camp participants will learn all aspects of horse care, including grooming & cleaning, feeding, and basic tack care. In daily riding lessons, students will be able to participate in trail rides, mounted games, bareback riding, and jumping at the instructor’s discretion. At the end of the summer, all campers are welcome to participate in our fun horse shows in the fall. Campers are welcome to bring their own horse or pony, or they’re welcome to use one of the farms. Those who bring their own horse or pony will receive a stall for the week and a small individual turn-out pasture. Campers typically bring their own hay and feed. Those who wish to ride a school horse are assessed either before camp or on the first day of camp. A school horse is assigned to each camper for the majority of the week. At Contry Hill Farm, we put an emphasis on safety and fun; having only qualified instructors. We offer a minimum 3:1 student to teacher ratio to ensure every child gets the most out of every lesson. Compared to other summer camp riding programs, campers get more one on one instruction, they spend every hour in the barn, and they spend most of their time at the farm riding.
