Improving confidence in jumping // The Stable Equestrian

I go over ways to improve jumping confidence. Coming from a coach who helps with confidence and has suffered from confidence issues jumping herself.

The important factors to take into consideration when finding a riding coach or riding school. Red flags and things to consider!

I talk through a few tips and things to know when photographing equestrian shows. I'm a New Zealand based photographer and have been photographing horse events for 6 years.

With the start of a new year what better time to talk through why goal setting is so important as a horse rider and how I make my goal setting easy.

I teach a lot of young riders that are super eager to be around the horses 24/7. So I thought an episode on finding an equine job when your young would be helpful for a lot of kids feeling the same. Hopefully some useful information!

I go through what the social equestrian mindset is, why its so negative and how we can help it.

I thought I might do something a bit different for this episode. I'm a full time riding coach/instructor and thought a week in my life rundown might be interesting. I also talk a bit about my tips for young instructors like me and people who are thinking of becoming a coach. ❤️

I've had my fair share of bad jumping habits that I've had to fix so I thought why not talk about them and how I fixed them! I've had lots of help with my own bad riding habits by my instructors and am lucky to be able to teach what I know to other riders.

It's been awhile! In this episode I give a bit of a life update and then discuss ways to stay motivated. As an equestrian life sometimes gets in the way and it's totally okay to lack motivation sometimes. There are also so many reasons as to why we lack motivation and I talk about those as well.

A bit of an update during the current world situation and what that means as a horse rider.
