The Pre-Canter Self-Study Course - Up to 50% off!
Get a good foundation for your canter work!
It makes no sense to canter until your horse is ready. But what can you do to get the horse there?
A good quality canter depends upon a good quality transition into the canter. A good quality transition depends upon good quality before the transition: balance, straightness, and suppleness.â¨â¨
We have an entire self-study course that lays out the whole process so you can take your horse from stuff, clumsy and not ready to well-prepared, both mentally and physically, for the canter work. It is all about building a solid foundation and giving your horse the foundation and skills he will need by focusing on the quality of his balance, suppleness, and straightness in the walk and trot work. â¨â¨
This online course covers these prerequisites and preparation FOR the canter and 10 exercises to help you step-by-step to develop your horseâs ability to execute a clear, balanced canter transition Plus a bonus on How to Improve your Canter Departs with theory training and 5 additional exercise patterns!!!â¨â¨
â This is an entirely self-study course. You can do it at your own pace, begin any time. Does not include Q&As or any support/feedback.Â
Normal Price = âŹ99

BRAND NEW - Bendology
20% off!
Bendology is a brand new, 12-module course that finally shows you how to bend - correctly, classically, and without all the confusing, conflicting advice that never actually solves anything. We go straight into what bend is, what it is not, and how the whole horseâs body needs to work together so you are not left pulling the head around or trying to hold your horse up with your inside leg.
The course runs December 5, 2025 through April 23, 2026 and includes clear theory, riding exercises that show you exactly what to do, and Feldenkrais lessons for the rider so you can actually feel what youâre trying to ride. You will know what is happening, why itâs happening, and how to fix it - without force, frustration, or guesswork.
Youâll also have 11 Q&A sessions for support throughout the program, plus a Facebook group where you can post questions, get feedback, and connect with others who are learning alongside you. Everything is designed to help you understand bend in a way that finally makes sense and actually works for you and your horse.
2025 Enrollment Price = âŹ460

BRAND NEW - The Artistic Rider
12-Month Coaching Program with Shana and Thomas Ritter
The Artistic Rider is a completely new, year-long coaching journey that helps you finally get clear, grounded, and connected in your riding by strengthening the inner game - the part no one talks about, yet the part that quietly shapes everything you do in the saddle.
Instead of drowning in conflicting advice or trying to mold yourself into what other people say a âgood riderâ should be, this program helps you strip away the noise, reconnect with who you are, and recreate the rider you want to become. Youâll regain clarity, rebuild confidence, and rediscover the joy and purpose that first drew you to horses.
The program runs for 12 months and includes bi-weekly teaching videos, guided meditations, riding experiments that help you apply what youâre learning, and journaling prompts designed to deepen your awareness. Youâll also have two monthly mindset & coaching sessions with Thomas and Shana, weekly check-ins for accountability, and a Facebook group where you can share, reflect, ask questions, and get support throughout the year.
Everything is structured to help you create internal alignment - so you stop second-guessing yourself, stop contradicting your own intentions, and start riding from a place of clarity, intuition, and genuine connection with your horse.
This is the work that makes everything else finally fall into place.
