Make the most of your competing! With this special, intensive 1-on-1 training program Victoria will help you look at competing in a totally different way and your test riding skills will improve out of sight!
Combining ridden and unmounted sessions, this program is all done remotely via video hook-ups so matter where you are, you can have access to Victoria's expertise!
There are 4 modules to this program, each being a private on-line session with Victoria. They need to be done in the correct order but it doesn’t matter how long there is between modules. Most riders choose to book them all fairly close together to get the most out of the program.
In Module 1 you will watch a video of you riding a test with Victoria to discuss where she feels you can make the most improvements, be they in your training, warm-up or actual test riding. Together you will discuss your goals for the coming season and plan the test you will work towards for the second module. You will discuss what it is that you like about competing, how and why it is so important to you, what motivates you to train and compete as well as many other factors that shape our minds and actions when competing. This is the time to talk about any worries or concerns you have with competing – either in general or on your current horse. Perhaps the warm-ups are challenging or going into different test environments. Maybe you hate the thought of people watching you ride and wonder what they will be saying and thinking about you and your horse. Whatever your concern, together we can work out a plan of action for making marked improvement in these areas and in your confidence.
The second module is done online using facebook video chat, skype, zoom or Movensee. These are easy to use even if you do not see yourself as being particularly tech savvy! I will coach you remotely and together we will work through the test you have chosen to ride, which may well be different to the one done in module one. Looking at each movement individually we will work out the best way to train and develop it as well as how to ride it in the test. You will learn where most riders lose marks, how to prepare for it and what common mistakes to watch out for. Become aware of how and what to prioritise at any time in your test. Should it be impulsion, self-carriage, harmony, accuracy or something else? Most importantly you will realise what is currently possible for your horse and what you should expect at this moment in time and what to expect in the future.
The third module and involves another online hookup. We discuss different visualisation techniques and also do an incredibly insightful exercise that is really eye opening for all riders. This is actually one of my favourite parts. You will need to a have a blank test sheet printed out for this module of a test that you will then go and ride and video before the next session.
In the final module we watch and mark the test video together and use this with some of the information and exercises we did in module 3. You will develop a totally different perspective on your progress, your current and future ability and how and where to go forward from this point!
Victoria is available most days and from very early in the morning to late at night so no matter what the time difference it is easy to work out times to suit everyone. Once you book in Victoria will be in touch to work out the days and times for your 4 sessions.
