The same benefits of our best-selling SteadyHands gloves for junior riders aged 4 to 13.

By request from parents and coaches who love our SteadyHands gloves and want to see junior riders benefit from the same riding tool, we are proud to offer Junior SteadyHands.

Junior riders can now develop good hand and position habits right from the start, and feel how a quiet, following contact can be achieved.

Available in navy with the option of either a pink or green band, the beautiful navy gloves feature buttery soft, grippy neo-leather with a stretch panel over the knuckles for comfort and performance.

SAFETY FIRST

Safety is always our priority, and even more so when it comes to our precious junior riders! The SteadyHands Junior Riding Gloves feature our unique quick-release centre clip, which comes apart easily from any sudden or jerky hand movement, but otherwise stays put.

The Junior SteadyHands gloves are also equipped with velcro attachment to the gloves, which will come apart under pressure, as an added point of safety.

Have a look at our video to see how easily the band comes apart at all paces!  

With these safety features, young riders can concentrate on learning the best hand position and contact, without having to worry about their hands being restricted in an emergency.

How They Work

Junior SteadyHands gloves apply the same scientific principles as our best-selling SteadyHands gloves, including proprioception (body awareness), resistance training and biomechanics.

The unique positioning of the SteadyHands band across the gloves is the key that allows riders to feel how to correctly engage the upper and lower arm muscles, as well as wrists and fingers.

The feedback and reviews of hundreds of riders and coaches all over the world is definitive - SteadyHands riding gloves really make a difference to hand position and contact.

With regular use, riders' improved hand position and contact feel becomes the "new normal", and sets them up with good habits for life.

Safety is assured through the quick-release clip, so riders' hands are always free to move apart if needed or with a loss of balance.

Contact problems?

SteadyHands Gloves help with the following issues:

Fiddling with the reins

- Provides increased awareness of hand movements

- The resistance bands limits the range of hand movement

"Pram"/"piano"/downwards facing hands

- Engages arm, shoulder and back muscles to correct this common fault

- Use regularly to overcome the habit

Hands too wide 

- The band limits how wide apart the hands can be held

- Builds new muscle memory of correct distance

Hands too low

- Encourages bent elbows which leads to better hand carriage

- Usually goes hand in hand with hands too wide

Overreliance on reins

- Limits/brings awareness to use of the reins

- Invites rider to use legs and/or seat instead

Hands moving around too much

- Gives significantly greater awareness of hand movements

- Engages the correct muscles to keep hands more steady

Hands not working as a pair

- The band linking the hands together acts as a "bridge"

- Develops mind-body connection of the feeling of each hand individually and as a pair
