Description

In this episode I chat with Melanie South who is an accomplished horsewoman, Equine Instructor at the University of Montana Western, and a previous riding instructor at the Natural Horsemanship program offered through UMW. She credits her success in the equine world with getting to ride a variety of horses from an early age and learning how to train and season a difficult horse.


Melanie shares her story as well as how strength training helped her return to riding after she had her daughter. Melanie completed "6 Weeks to Solid in the Saddle" and returned to riding with unexpected ease after hearing about the postpartum changes in riding from friends who had had kids.


This episode is brought to you by "Getting Back in the Saddle After Baby" which was created after I had my own son for this very reason! You can learn more here: Getting Back in the Saddle After Baby 


Enjoy!
