Gina Hemmings

HAMPSHIRE/NEW FOREST
Equipilates™ Advanced Registered Trainer
www.physiogina.com
07743 336258

Gina is a Chartered Physiotherapist and a Level 3 APPI Pilates Instructor as well as a Hippotherapist (riding therapist). After 20 years in the NHS Gina now works as a private Physiotherapist, and teaches daily Pilates classes; specialising in Pilates for Horse Riders. 

​Gina is involved in teaching Equipilates™ to Riding and Pony Clubs, Young Rider Academies and National Teams.  She also enjoys helping ‘Happy Hackers’ to be just that! As a Hippotherapist Gina also works with less able riders using equine movement as a Physiotherapy modality.

At home Gina has three horses; her own retired Polo horse who will turn his hand to whatever asked and two eventers her daughter competes. Gina rides or schools most days and has found the Equipilates™ concepts have greatly enhanced her riding – improving her position and effectiveness  as well as enhancing the communication she feels with the horse.
​

Gina offers the following Equipilates™ training sessions
  • Talks – introducing the concepts of body biomechanics, the ABC principles on a saddle horse as well as a few fun seated releases for tight muscles!
  • Workshops – a more practical dismounted session looking at Posture, Alignment, Pelvic mobility and centering.
  • Six week Equipilates Fundamentals course – a full dismounted package including exercises for alignment, breathing, core strength, spinal and pelvic mobility
Private Equipilates™ sessions. These include a full biomechanical assessment, specific exercises prescribed to improve your suppleness, posture, breathing patterns and stability / balance. Exercises using your saddle on a saddle horse is included.
The overall aim of Gina’s Equipilates™ teaching is to improve your riding so it is more pleasurable and comfortable for you and your horse resulting in more harmony and a better performance.
