A Whole Different Breed

Riding Lessons Unlike Any Other…

Did you know that riding lessons programs can be one of the most lucra­tive busi­ness prac­tices involv­ing hors­es? This is because the tradi­tion­al model riding program main­tains students for years with little or no progress forward! The aver­age rider never progress­es beyond 2nd level dres­sage move­ments. The aver­age horse will only make it to 1st or 2nd level dres­sage before the demands on them phys­i­cal­ly, mental­ly and emotion­al­ly stall them.

Why? That is a ques­tion whose answer is very unfor­tu­nate. The aver­age riding instruc­tor has no formal train­ing or prior expe­ri­ence in a teach­ing envi­ron­ment before they start teach­ing riders, and most will never achieve any educa­tion direct­ly relat­ed to teach­ing and instruct­ing. Since the aver­age eques­tri­an will not progress beyond 2nd level, we can surmise that the aver­age riding instruc­tor has only obtained the skills need­ed to reach 2nd level but not beyond.

You will not hear such common phrases as heels down, shoulders back, more forward, sit deeper at Awareness In Riding. The reason is because we teach you how to achieve these habits as SECOND NATURE – not having to struggle every ride to obtain them! Every rider willing to put in the needed time and effort can ride beyond Grand Prix levels no matter their preferred discipline. And horses are ridden in a way that does not injure them or prevent them from going beyond Grand Prix movements – no matter their breed!

The more you learn, the better you ride!

Our Instructor Training Program makes available to both aspiring and established instructors a forum in which they can grow as individuals and learn to connect with students to be as effective as possible.

Pushing The Limits

Higher learning through our Instructor Training Program

Now more than ever there is a great demand for quality riding instructors, and yet where do instructors turn when they want to improve their skills? Where do aspiring instructors turn to gain the education and hands-on practice to teach effectively?

We recognize this deficiency in the horse industry and as a result are opening our doors and providing you with our Instructor Training Program designed for new instructors and established professionals alike! You finally have someone in your corner to help you learn the skills needed to teach at your best…

Did you know that you are required to hold a Bachelor’s degree to teach kindergarten children their ABC’s, and yet there is no formal education required to teach kindergarten children to ride a 1000lb horse? The majority of education on horseback is based on trial and error, endless repetition and learning ‘the hard way.’ All of which can lead to years of frustration or serious injury.

Do you want to provide your students with the best education possible? That is where our Instructor Training Program comes in! We provide you with an environment to learn, practice, develop and hone the skills of teaching. Our structured program delivers dynamic skills that are built on critical thinking techniques so that you are never left guessing. Learn methods to keep your students safe, advancing consistently and excited to come to every lesson!

Learning to teach is learning to be the ultimate student of the horse.

Inten­sives offer riders what week­ly lessons simply cannot – a vast amount of educa­tion in a short peri­od of time while still deliv­er­ing intense results!

Ready to fast-track your seat work and move to the next level? An Intensive is the ideal program to get you there!

Intensives Offer More…

Devel­op­ing your seat and learn­ing the refine­ment of the aids can take years of week­ly riding lessons, some eques­tri­ans close the gap by taking two lessons a week but still face the issue of time. Learn­ing to ride with a soft, supple and dynam­i­cal­ly balanced seat is *the* most impor­tant lesson any rider can gain. Why spend years on the lunge when you can fast-track your progress and move forward today?

Riding Inten­sives at Aware­ness In Riding couple our seat train­ing exer­cis­es with fast-paced repe­ti­tion to help take your mind out of the equa­tion and create balance that is second nature. Now you can ride as if you had a couple of years of seat train­ing under your belt a matter of days!

Did you know that every natu­ral reac­tion we have as humans contra­dicts the reac­tions we need to devel­op in order to ride effec­tive­ly? Inten­sives help to rewire our nervous system respons­es in the saddle and set the build­ing blocks for the rest of your educa­tion!

If you are ready to launch your education forwards with an Intensive, all you have to do is call or email us today!

To be balanced in the saddle is to ride without any natural human tendencies.

Life Coaching is a valuable resource in our day to day lives – Equestrian Life Coaching can make the difference between success and failure in your relationship with the horse!

Looking Beyond The Forest

Equestrian Life Coaching works towards negating our ego

Our life is made up of complex and complicated relationships between work, school, personal and professional relationships; family, hobbies and more. Believe it or not, all of these pieces of our lives are interrelated and enmeshed with one another.

Equestrian Life Coaching works in a way that asks, “where else are you experiencing this issue in your life?” Where else are you feeling stuck, frustrated, blocked, confused, afraid, angry?

The horse is the perfect mirror in our lives and as issues begin to appear in your relationship with the horse they will frequently continue until the related issue in your life is dealt with.

Our goal is to help you move towards Advanced Horsemanship as quickly as possible and as safely – but this is not possible when there are road blocks in your personal life that are preventing you from moving ahead as an Equestrian. That is why we offer Equestrian Life Coaching.

Time to take control and move beyond all the frustrating blocks in your riding? Just give us a call or email us today!

The horse’s greatest gift to riders is that of being a mirror, a reflection of ourselves.
