We just wrapped up an amazing two days at the Ignite for Equine Athletes 2nd Annual Sport Science Seminar for the Olympic Disciplines! Each day was filled with knowledgeable and talented speakers, as well as live demonstrations and labs. We had top riders, veterinarians, physiotherapists, and more join.

I was honored to speak at this event and cannot wait to connect with those I met, and those that I will meet in the future! If you aren’t a member of ignite already, I would highly encourage you to consider joining this sport performance group for the latest and greatest Research and information in performance horse sports medicine.

Mistakes are an inevitable part of horse riding and training, and they hold value far beyond the moments of frustration they might bring. Each misstep—whether it’s an uneven transition, a missed cue, or a wonkey movement is a lesson in disguise. Dressage, at its core, is not about perfection; it’s about partnership, growth, and the pursuit of harmony between horse and rider.

When you make a mistake, it’s a sign that you’re pushing boundaries, trying new things, and daring to improve. A perfect test teaches you little, but an imperfect one offers countless opportunities to learn and strengthen your connection with your horse. Mistakes are not failures; they are stepping stones to mastery.

Even the most experienced riders stumble at times, and every grand prix champion began with unsteady circles and uncertain hands. What sets them apart is not flawless performance but their ability to embrace errors, reflect on them, and come back stronger.

So, when you make a mistake in dressage, take a deep breath. Smile, pat your horse, and remind yourself that every journey worth taking has many moments that are imperfection. Progress isn’t about never falling; it’s about riding with a better understanding each time you do.

I’ll be in Virginia (DC area) October 18-20 teaching. Still a couple of spots left. Message me or leave a comment for details.

We are hosting Emily Rose from Reaching Strides Equine Rehabilitation on October 19th- 20th. Emily is a physical therapist for both horse and human, and had wonderful insights on changes we can make to improve our ride. She never disappoints!! I have 1 spot left if anyone is interested.

Last week when I was at UT helping with the CERP course, I was able to consult on this little guy. A lot of my past human work was done in pediatrics and particularly with pre-term infants as they grow up. I was able to call on that experience to add another piece to Seven’s rehab program. Take a look at the video to learn more. I’m looking forward to seeing updates - he’s in the best place ❤️

Earlier this week I had the opportunity to teach, for a second time, a wonderful group of students in Knoxville. The focus of the clinic was on rider biomechanics and involved time on and off their horses. Check out the photos below and see if you can spot my special assistant 😉
