CORE by D

The training you choose today shapes your horse tomorrow .
CORE by D is an elastic core training system that combines your everyday saddle pad with targeted core activation to support strength, balance and body awareness through everyday training. A simple way to bring varied training into your daily routine. Inspired by biomechanics and informed by emerging research on elastic training bands. Trusted by more than 2,500 riders across Europe.

Prehab, not rehab. Build strength before problems start.

A stronger foundation isn’t built in perfect conditions. It’s built in Tuesday evening sessions, winter mud, and the small moments of consistent work. CORE by D makes varied training accessible, in the arena, on the trail, or during lungeing. For all horses, and for all riders.

Body awareness

Gentle sensory feedback helps your horse become more aware of how its body moves. By providing the same feedback on both sides, it encourages greater awareness of left and right side differences.

Balanced movement

Encourages coordinated movement and targeted core activation, supporting the muscles involved in balance and self carriage.

Long term development

Designed to complement, not replace, your everyday training by adding targeted core activation and meaningful variety to your regular routine.

Built for every stage of your horse’s journey

My horse feels uneven

Gentle sensory feedback on both sidse encourages body awareness and more even movement during training.

I want to build a stronger foundation

Add targeted core activation and meaningful variety to the training you already do.

Fits into the training you already do

Whether you’re riding, lunging, doing groundwork or using poles and hills, CORE by D adds targeted core activation as a complement to your existing training.

My horse is returning to work

Designed to support gradual strength building as part of a rehabilitation programme in consultation with your veterinarian or therapist.

Built on the same principles. Designed differently.

ORE by D Complete Set combines your everyday saddle pad and elastic training bands in one integrated system. Ready to ride in around 30 seconds. Use the saddle pad on its own for everyday riding or attach the bands whenever you want targeted core work.

Separate saddle pad and band systems require additional equipment and setup before training. The bands and saddle pad are purchased separately and used together when needed.

Both approaches are based on the same principles of elastic training. The difference is integration. CORE by D is designed to make core-focused training simple enough to become part of your everyday routine, not just something you do occasionally.

What riders say

Training with confidence

As a first-time horse owner, I was afraid of doing harm. CORE by D gave me a way to train with confidence. Diamond took to it quickly, and it shows.

First-time owner
A gradual, real change

My horse was sceptical at first. Within a few sessions he had settled. The change in how he moves and carries himself has been gradual, consistent, and real.

Recreational rider
Simple and honest

Elegant in colour, simple in use. You know the horse is working, without any force.

Leisure rider
On days when I am not at my best

The best equipment I have ever used. On days when I am not at my best as a rider, it helps me still give my horse a proper session.
