EFT Hind End to Core Connection

True collection — the kind that builds a strong topline, powerful movement, and a horse that carries itself — requires the hind end to come under, the pelvis to tilt, and the core to engage. Harsh training aids can force a position, but they can’t build the muscle memory or the strength that makes it natural. This 31-minute course teaches a proprioceptive taping application that works with every step the horse takes — cueing the external abdominal obliques to engage, tilting the pelvis, and bringing the hind end under. It works under saddle, in the paddock, and long after the training session is over. Used together with the Front End to Core Connection and Thoracic Sling applications, it forms a complete system for conditioning the whole topline toward true, natural collection. Built for owners, practitioners, trainers, and competitors across all disciplines.

31-Minute Digital Course — Lifetime Access via EquiTecs App

• What it is: Step-by-step proprioceptive protocol for connecting the hind end to the core — ideal for collection, topline development, power, and posture.
• What you get: Instant, on-demand video instruction + application demo.
• How it works: EquiTecs 4-Way Tape is applied in a proprioceptive pattern that connects the hind end to the core musculature. With each step the horse takes, the tape’s energy return gently cues the external abdominal obliques to engage — which tilts the pelvis down and brings the hind end further under the body. When the horse is in correct position, the tape is at ease. When the horse drifts out of position, the recoil signals the body to return. Unlike training aids, this application cannot cause discomfort, cannot be overused, and continues working around the clock for as long as the tape is worn.
• Access: Anytime, on any device. Lifetime included.

• Who It’s For: Owners, practitioners, trainers, rehab pros, competitors across all disciplines

Application: What & Why

• What: Proprioceptive application connecting the hind end to the core — cueing the external abdominal obliques to engage, tilting the pelvis, and bringing the hind end under for true collection and more powerful movement
• Why: True collection requires muscle engagement that training aids cannot build. This application provides a continuous, gentle proprioceptive cue that works with the horse’s own nervous system — building the muscle memory and strength that makes correct self-carriage natural

Unique Clinical Notes

• This is a proprioceptive — not restrictive — application; horse body position during taping is as important as tape placement
• Works as part of a three-application system with Front End to Core Connection and Thoracic Sling Support for complete topline conditioning
• Consistent use (at least 6 weeks) yields lasting improvement in collection and posture
• Cannot cause discomfort, cannot be overused, and continues working after the training session ends
• Universal across all disciplines — any horse in work or training benefits

Common Questions

• How do I access? Instantly via the EquiTecs App on any device. Lifetime access included.
• What do I need? EquiTecs 4-Way EFT Tape (sold separately), clean/dry hindquarters, and 31 minutes.
• How does it work? The tape’s energy return provides a continuous proprioceptive cue with every step — encouraging the external abdominal obliques to engage, tilting the pelvis, and bringing the hind end under naturally.
• Is it safe? Yes — tape is engineered for horse hair and designed to give way if misapplied. It cannot cause damage and cannot be overused.

Markers of Success

• Consistent engagement of hind end and core with less rider effort
• Improved self-carriage, posture, and balanced movement
• Increased power, propulsion, and collection over time
• Tape remains secure — no bunching or peeling
