ABOUT US
Welcome to Ride with Resilience, a freelance coaching business founded in July 2023 by two experienced equestrians, having both faced our own confidence challenges. We found that traditional coaching utilises outdated methods for improving confidence - how many times have you been told to 'close your eyes and kick on' or even chased around an arena by an instructor with a schooling whip? The tough love method is appropriate in some situations and can often be effective, but certainly not in cases where a rider is experiencing a genuine confidence issue rather than a momentary wobble. Instead, we utilise a science backed, evidence based approach to increasing rider confidence and always tackle situations with empathy. We understand that it is your confidence holding you back and not your ability, and focus our efforts into developing you into a rider with resilience. Thank you for visiting our website, if you can't find the answer to your question today, please feel free to get in touch.
SERVICES
Consultation
A consultation offers you the chance to meet with your coach for the first time. A positive working relationship will be key to success in your confidence journey. Your consultation can be carried out however you feel comfortable, although our suggested format is 30 minutes unmounted discussion followed by 30 minutes ridden assessment.
​
Coaching Sessions
We offer confidence coaching sessions of 30 minutes or 1 hour duration. In this time we can provide confidence coaching in various aspects of horsemanship including groundwork, flatwork, jumping and hacking. You may choose to spend the full session mounted or you may prefer to allocate some time for an unmounted discussion before/after your ridden work.
Events
We are available for half or full day sessions in order to accompany you to shows, events or other outings such as the beach. Confidence coaching can be especially useful in unfamiliar environments and we can also help with grooming. Booking a show may provide you with a goal to work towards throughout your confidence journey and help you to measure your progress.
