The Thoughtful Horsemanship Progress Challenge
8-Week Thoughtful Horsemanship Progress Challenge
8 Weeks. Your Horse. Real Progress.
Want better communication with your horse—but aren't always sure what to change, what you're missing, or what to work on next?
The Thoughtful Horsemanship Progress Challenge is an 8-week guided program designed to help you become more aware of the little things that can make a BIG difference in your horsemanship.
This isn't about having the best-trained horse or being the most advanced rider.
It's about becoming better than where YOU started.
Throughout the 8 weeks, you'll work through a structured horsemanship program while receiving personalized feedback to help you recognize what's working, where communication may be breaking down, and what you can adjust to help you and your horse progress together.
What's Included
✓ 8 Weeks of Structured Horsemanship Work
Follow a guided weekly program focused on communication, timing, feel, awareness, and becoming a more thoughtful partner for your horse.
✓ 8 Personalized Weekly Video Reviews
Each week, submit up to 5 minutes of video showing you working with your horse. You'll receive individualized feedback on what I'm seeing, what's improving, and what you can focus on next.
✓ Progress Tracking
We'll establish a starting point during Week 1 and follow your progress throughout the challenge so you can actually SEE the changes taking place.
✓ Lifetime Access to the Course Material
The challenge lasts 8 weeks, but the learning doesn't. You'll continue to have access to the course materials after the challenge ends.
✓ Optional Private Virtual Lessons
Want more hands-on help? Full private virtual lessons can be added at any point during the challenge for additional one-on-one coaching.
Yes—There Are Prizes!
But this isn't a horse show.
Participants are evaluated based on their individual improvement from Week 1 to Week 8, not on who has the fanciest horse, the most experience, or the highest level of training.
That means a beginner can absolutely win.
Your progress will be evaluated in areas such as:
- Horse & rider communication
- Clarity and consistency of cues
- Timing and release
- Your horse's understanding and responsiveness
- Rider awareness and adaptability
- Overall improvement from your starting point
Over $450 in Coaching Prizes!
🥇 Most Improved: 4 Private Virtual Lessons — $260 Value
🥈 Second Most Improved: 2 Private Virtual Lessons — $130 Value
🥉 Third Most Improved: 1 Private Virtual Lesson — $65 Value
To qualify for prizes, participants must complete at least 7 of the 8 weekly check-ins, including the Week 1 baseline and Week 8 final assessment.
Who Is This Challenge For?
This challenge is open to English AND Western riders and a variety of experience levels.
It's especially great for horse owners who:
- Feel like communication with their horse could be better
- Aren't always sure what they should be working on
- Feel like they've hit a plateau
- Want another set of experienced eyes on their training
- Want accountability and a reason to consistently work toward a goal
- Want to better understand the why behind their horse's responses
- Simply want to become a more thoughtful, effective horseperson
You don't need a perfect horse.
You don't need expensive equipment.
And you definitely don't need to already have everything figured out.
You just need a horse, a willingness to learn, and 8 weeks to see what you can change.
