We are looking for individuals who are already solid hunt seat or dressage riders, have experienced personal body work, and are interested in learning how to teach our method. Aware Riding is similar in may ways to Center Riding, and is based on a European model, emphasizing riding from balance and relaxation, being aware of one's own body and the horse's body, using one's appendages independently, applying the aids with awareness, and riding with lightness, that is, with one's fingers, seat and legs. We also teach bridle-less riding.

Because teaching is a calling, we want someone who can articulate what it is about teaching that lights their fire. We mostly give private lessons, and we teach to the learning style of the student, rather than to the convenience of the instructor. Our students range in age from 5-88+ years. We are not focused on teaching for the horse show, but rather we are focused on teaching our students to ride correctly and safely, and in partnership with the horse with the potential to train. We also do equine assisted therapy for folks who do not need side-walkers and a leader, but who may have anxiety, depression, ADHD, high-functioning autism, or sensory processing disorders. And we have a United States Pony Club Riding Center Program as part of our offerings.

Our Intern Instructors must spend time first observing our teaching style, and then teaching with active supervision. Depending upon what we see when you interview, you may also need riding lessons. While we do not charge for our supervision, we also do not pay you to be a student. Once you have achieved teaching competence in our method, you will be invited to teach for us, at which point you will be paid.

Requirements

Experience with personal body work such as Network Chiropractic, deep tissue massage, Gestalt Body Work, Re-birthing, Reichian Therapy, Bioenergetics, Shiatsu, Polarity Therapy, Craniosacral Therapy, Myofascial Massage, Alexander Technique, Rolfing, Feldenkrais Method, etc.
