Hi Everyone!
 
Jockey Frank Lovato JrA letter from Frankie..
 
"It has been a month of jam packed action to say the least; life in the fast lane in our horse world with expos, travel & business.
 
Yet, in the mix of all this, I was taking snow stakes down that I had used to mark the shop's driveway. I was reminded of the baby Maple tree I had planted last year. I thought the baby tree had died as the leaves wilted and fell off last summer. BUT, I noticed very healthy buds on it's branches... it's alive and well!! This made me so happy and I just had to share! Ahh, the simple things can be so breathtaking! Just when you think something has had it's last moment, life fights back and wins."

 Expo Highlights


Equine Affaire- Columbus, Ohio   

Wow, what an event. We had 3 Equicizers set up in our booth and figured we had approximately, 3,500 riders jumping aboard for a ride over the four days!
 

One of the highlights during the expo was Colleen Kelly's Rider Biomechanics presentation. Colleen used the Equicizer in her

presentation and what an awesome presentation it was. People were crowded around to hear her knowledge and quips. Colleen is an internationally acclaimed Equestrian. Dressage master, Jose Mendez traveled from Australia

Also, a very special thank you to champion horseman and clinician, Terry Myers, who

spent hours in our booth working with riders aboard the Equicizer. Terry and his Ride-in-Sync™ philosophies helped people have break throughs with their riding using the Equicizer right in our booth. It's always amazing to see Terry do his magic and the rider's results on the Equicizer after just 5 minutes! Be sure to check out Terry's website at TMTrainingCenter.com

 
 
 
 
 NOTE: Clinicians and instructors' get immediate results with rider's on the Equicizer. We witnessed riders correct his/her position, address fears, and fix bad habits just in the few minutes at our booth.   
 
 
Los Angeles Abilities Expo- Los Angeles, California

This was the Equicizer's first expo to be presented to the healthcare industry!

Special thank you to Rita Roberson and friends to make this possible. Rita was born with Moderate to Severe Spastic Athetoid Quadriplegia Cerebral PalsyLos Angeles Abilities Expo and uses the Equicizer regularly. At the expo, Rita with her Equicizer, "Rita's Fancy", was able to show attendees how the Equicizer helps her with her everyday life.

Dear friend & colleague Jackie Baker of Regarding Horses featured me in one of her blogs.

Jackie and I thought how fun it would be to make this interactive, allowing readers to ask any question they would ever have about jockeys, horse racing or the Derby.

I wanted to share this with all of you incase you wanted to take a look. There are no dumb questions in horse racing! And I will answer every question personally!

NOTE: Therapeutic Riding and Hippotherapy Programs find the Equicizer to be invalueable with their riders. They are able to safely discuss horse familiarization, stretches, warm-ups, address specific lesson points, and practice mounting and dismounting while sparing the live horses.
