Set the same expectation for you as you do for your horse

What is EliteEquest training?

It is a specialized 12 week training program with exercises for riders to enhance their skills, which can be done from anywhere. These exercises will result in improved posture and balance in the saddle, increased strength and endurance for riding, as well as, prevent stress injuries that are likely to develop due to prolonged riding.

Many riders make the mistake of forgetting to train themselves, you as a rider are an athlete and horseback riding is a team sport. You and your horse work as a team and if you only train one of you, you will never reach your full potential.
