I totally support your product for the following reasons: The Unisit is natural and comfortable while at the same time giving the rider a sense of both balance and security. The Unisit will therefore be a confidence builder, and I am looking forward to helping my current student use it to feel safe while learning new riding tasks. A short video I have made contains demonstrations of both walk and trot while using the Unisit. I am a handicapped rider who also instructs handicapped and beginning riders.

I recently purchased a Unisit and took it to my trainer's barn for use in lessons. She began by using it on me and then used it on several other students of various levels and with a variety of horses. All of us have made significant improvement in out seats and our horses are so much more forward and easy to connect! WE LOVE IT!!! In fact, a clinician I work with regularly commented that my riding, the trot work in particular, had improved "200%" over when she last had seen me. I attribute all the improvement to the Unisit Strap. I have a lovely Trakehner cross that is the perfect amateur horse except that his trot is pretty bouncy. I have not progressed much with him over the past couple of years due to my inability to sit the trot. Well, I just came home from my first show of the season with scores ranging from 61% to 66% at First Level. This is the best I've done in several years! I had two different people who I usually only see at shows come up and compliment me on how much better I was sitting the trot work with my horse. I'm sold, so are all of my fellow students and my trainer. It is a GREAT teaching and learning tool. Thanks so much Paula. Lisa Hennessy

I think the Unisit has helped my seat tremendously. I have only used it a couple of times but already feel much more stabilized in the saddle and able to sit my horse's trot and canter SO much better than before. It is truly a miracle. The weather here is icy and dicey, so I won't get the chance to use it much till Spring, but I am thrilled so far with the permanent improvement it has given me. There is HUGE resistance to this device on many internet boards. People are very opinionated and quick to condemn things they have not experienced firsthand. This is sad. I only hope that more people have the opportunity to try out this strap, and see how it helps them and others. Best of luck for a fine invention.

I attended a dressage camp this summer and was introduced to the Unisit strap by the instructor. The improvement in my horse was immediate and dramatic. I was amazed at how much my new, improved seat at the trot and canter directly affected his performance. This has inspired me to strive for goals I hadn't even thought possible with him. At our first show after working with the Unisit strap, we got a 69% and an 8 in impulsion, something I hadn't thought possible for us. Thank you for the Unisit strap!!

My name is Eleanor Stine-Masek.  I am a USEF “S” Dressage Judge, a USDF Bronze and Silver medalist and a lifelong student of the Horse.  I teach my adult amateurs who have experienced positive results from using the Unisit Strap.

The Unisit Strap is a very useful tool that help sht rider feel in balance with the horses' movement with out tension.  I have found that every horse moved more confidently and freely with the rider in the Unisit Strap because the rider was not interfering with their seat and legs.  The riders were able to ALLOW the horse to move and still remain in a safe balance.

In my over 30 years of training horses and riders,from training level to Grand Prix, I have never seen a more vailuble training aid as the UNISIT. It will learn the rider to sit with the horse and in ritme, also the rider will feel how the horse bennifits from a seat wich stays with the horse. If you want to be able to control the movements of the horse, you first have to be able to follow that movement! The UNISIT teaches you what following the movement really means, no mather what level you are.
