Become a More Resilient Rider - and Human

Become a More Resilient Rider - and Human

Responding and adapting to challenges in this sport is not optional - it's necessary. Life with horses comes with bumps and bruises, both literally and figuratively, and to learn and grow (or, at minimum, stay afloat), we have to have resilience

If you talk with anyone at the top of their field - business, sports, you name it - the common denominator among those individuals is likely resilience. It's the ability to know your "why" so deeply, that each time you fail or get knocked off your trajectory, you're able to wake up the next day and keep chasing the goal anyway. 

Take our Resilience Quiz to determine your personal level of resilience. 

We've teamed up with Sport and Performance Psychologist (and equestrian) by Darby Bonomi, PhD to create a free 4-week webinar series to help equestrians develop more resilience.
