Ride with Confidence Q&A Apr 25, 2025

Show notes

Next Thursday, May 1^st is the first day of my 30 Day Canter challenge, I am so excited about it!

The canter can be a tricky transition to master, but it is such a fun gait to ride. Once you figure out the transition, and you can keep your horse relaxed and round, it’s the most magical feeling!

Last night Germán and I talked about how we have prepared our own horses for the canter, and how to get ready to canter.

I know the canter can be intimidating, I know I feel that way when I’m trying new horses in Europe.

I created this challenge to help riders prepare themselves for the canter, to improve their canter transitions, their canter quality, and their canter seat!

Join the Challenge here!

Suppleness Through the Body Q&A Apr 18, 2025

Show notes

The 30 Day Canter Challenge is officially open for enrolment, it’s going to be a fantastic 30 days, and I’m giving away $10,000 to the top transformations! The Canter Challenge has been the MOST requested challenge and I’m so excited for it!

No horse is born knowing how to be round at the canter, or how to carry a rider at the canter. That’s why I’ve put so many hours into designing the Canter Challenge to help both horse and rider with their canter!

When you are learning online, you are not multitasking, you can focus solely on what you’re learning, instead of a thousand things at once and only some of it sinking in!

In my courses you can send in your own riding videos for review, my team and I can watch your video and give you tips and exercises to work on with your horse. In the Canter Challenge you get 30 days of community and support in our private Facebook group where my team and I can cheer you on, and give feedback and tips on your videos!

I’m so excited to offer two divisions to accommodate a variety of riders! We have the Trotter’s Trophy for riders who are not cantering yet or do not want to canter, and we have the Canter Cup for riders who are already cantering and want to work on the canter transition or the quality of the canter!

Have you signed up yet?

Happy Riding,

Posture and Balance in the Saddle Q&A Apr 11, 2025

Show notes

In last night's live we talked about posture and balalnce in the saddle. This is something you need to be mindful of all the time. Slouching also means we end up looking down which we don't really want to do! We had some super questions about riding without stirrups.

We shared some exciting info about the upcoming Canter Challenge. The canter is definitely the most challenging gait and I have some really great content planned for this challenge! I know I have students at different levels of their riding, so this is the first time we are going to have two divisions for the challenge, the Trotter's Trophy and the Canter Cup!

Happy Riding,

Amelia
