With Jenny Adamson, Equine Physiotherapist & Rehabilitation Specialist
Winter can make everything feel harder — the weather, the dark evenings, the mud, the lack of time. But winter isn’t a season to pause your horse’s progress. It’s a season to step back, simplify, and build strength in small, meaningful ways.
When the temperature drops, many horses move less — they stand in more, their muscles tighten, and joints can feel a little creaky. But winter doesn’t have to mean losing strength, suppleness, or progress.
They’re one of the most underestimated tools for helping your horse develop better posture, balance, and coordination — without the added weight of a rider.
Whether your horse is in rehab, having time off, or you’re simply short on daylight or good weather, non-ridden work can be one of the most powerful (and often overlooked) ways to build your horse’s physical and mental foundation.
