AUTHOR
Wendy Murdoch, an internationally recognised equestrian author, instructor and clinician for over 23 years, teaches her students how to do what great riders do naturally. Wendy's desire to understand the function of both horse and human, and love of teaching, capitalises on the most current learning theories in order to show riders how to exceed their own expectations. In 1984, while attaining her master's degree in equine reproductive physiology Wendy suffered a severe riding accident. Her self-rehabilitation started a quest to understand and answer the question of how to ride pain free, using the body as it was designed. Wendy's uncanny ability to find and study with the best people in a variety of fields and her profound curiosity make her unique. Wendy combines her creative talents with her scientific training to break down larger concepts of riding into simple, easy-to-do exercises for students of all ages, abilities and disciplines. Her ability to make learning enjoyable, engaging and fun through in-depth presentations both mounted and unmounted, which are easy to comprehend, helps her students connect the dots and achieve their goals.
