Ride online with me as your trainer in your ear. I will watch your ride live online and instruct you in real time – just like in any training session.
It is easier than thought. Basically you need your phone and an internet connection. If there is no WIFI – Cellular connection works as well.
You do not need a special tracking device to start. Just a camera stand, or a friend holding your phone is good enough. I mostly use my ZOOM account which allows the recording of the lesson and other people to join and listen into the lesson. There are different tracking and streaming devices on the market, I have worked with most of them, you can contact me and we can consult which would be the best way for you to get started.
Online training has proven to become a very valuable training tool. Your can train at home with a trainer of your choice at a convenient time. The possibility of recording the lessons makes learning more intensive by rewatching and relistening to all the given tools and instructions.
Pricing: $150 per lesson
Payment for your online lessons is processed only after the lesson has been successfully completed, ensuring you are charged for services already rendered. Regarding cancellations, we understand that occasional conflicts arise; therefore, a cancellation fee will only be applied if a pattern of repeated cancellations is observed without a valid, pre-approved reason, allowing flexibility for genuine scheduling issues while discouraging habitual missed lessons.

Equi- Chair is a monthly online movement class that is streamed live and the recording is available later as well.
All classes are designed to enhance the elasticity of the body and focus on the special needs for the rider. Many exercises will make you more aware of your seat when back in the saddle and give you tools to find a better balance and harmony with the horse. There is no “fitness-level” required, all exercises can be modified to your individual needs. You can do these classes on any chair everywhere.
The classes are attended by riders of all ages – the level can be modified to the individual need. They provide important understanding and connect very clearly to specific riding situations and allow the rider and the trainer to analyse the riders position and improve it.

My friend "Lynn" kept nudging me to record a warm-up class, but I kept saying that it is always different. Finally we came up with the idea of making a collection of different warm-up classes for you to choose and tailor according to your daily need! I hope you enjoy the classes as much as Lynn and I did making them!
These course has 10 different warm-up classes that can help you get ready for your ride by gently warming up those structures of the body needed when mounted. Each class warms up the whole body but does have a little different focus, like each ride you will warm up your horse slightly different according to the daily needs. By having a set of different topics you can learn and choose what is best for you body every day new.
The classes have proven helpful for riders of all ages and levels - Novice riders gain more elasticity and suppleness, and professional riders gain the preparation and care they need to put into their own body to be able to perform on high level on the horse in a healthy and harmonious way.
