Inthese pages, Olympic competitor and coach Marc Nö lke explains how to direct thespecific areas of the brain that control stability, sense of rhythm, precisionof movement, breathing, and vision. With his unique brain-focused exercises,riders learn how to change the input sent to their brain to gethealthier, more athletic output, which can include intentional andunintentional movement, and functions of circulatory, hormonal, or immunesystems.The brain decides how you ride and how you feel when youride based on the input you send it. Traditionally equestrians haveworked to improve the brain’ s output (riding skills) by training the output(riding skills).
