Zusammenfassung:Means for improving equestrian rider safety and effectiveness comprising one or more monitoring devices 5-14 mounted, in use, on the body of the rider. The or each monitoring device includes means for determining the orientation of the part of the riders body on which it is mounted and transmitting data concerning the postural angle of said part of the body. Means are provided for receiving the transmitted data and comparing the transmitted data with stored data relating to ideal postural angles, together with means for communicating the result of the comparison such that the rider is alerted to deviations from ideal postures. Additional monitoring devices may also be provided on the horse. The alert may be a personalised sound or custom voice message. Alerts specifically for the horse and means for recording the number and severity of kicks or nudges given to the horse during a riding session may also be provided.
