You know better results are possible… You know you are capable of taking your horse’s training program to the next level.
…but, you are completely lost on HOW to do it!
So you end up following your under-saddle training program but your horse is not progressing well enough and you can't help feeling stuck and inefficient.
What if you could finally build your horse’s muscle from the ground up? 👀
You want your horse to be a strong, well-muscled riding companion.
You don’t want them to be weak in the hind end, over on the shoulder, or unbalanced through their transitions.
But, you can’t figure out how to develop your horse's strength… and all the details of planning a lunging training session? It’s beyond you!
Plus, you are already busy and you don’t know if you have enough time to spend in each session.
You have been struggling to come up with new ideas for adding to your training plan - so you can exercise right away without waiting for more ideas to come to you later.
If you are tired of:
✔️ Working your horse up and down hills, but STILL not been able to improve its topline
✔️ Struggling with your horse being crooked and stiff 😣
✔️ Wishing your horse to work more forward downward, and be softer on the bit
✔️ And what’s worse… you feel frustrated because you have tried to lunge your horse and just watched it RACE AROUND THE CIRCLE, fall in over its shoulder, or couldn’t get them to move forward at all.
>>...if you could only find a way to build your horse’s muscle from the ground up without lots of training gadgets, hours with an expensive couch, or an in-person clinic that’s months away.<<

For who is this course?
Lunging Training benefits all disciplines!
For all riders
The first thing you’ll start to learn is how to develop your eye and intuition to design a personalized lunging training session for your horse. We’ll show you what to look for during the assessment phase so that you can begin to develop a plan for each horse you meet. You’ll learn what to keep an eye out for, issues that may arise, and how to correct them. This is beneficial if you’ve been lunging horses your entire horse career, or if you’re just getting started.
For all disciplines
We’ve had students in other courses from all backgrounds, including Western, Classical Dressage, Eventing, Hunter/Jumper, trail riders, and vaulting! Lunging as a cross-exercise to riding is not often taught in all disciplines, but is used as a means to blow off steam from your horse before a show or a lesson. We want to help expand your knowledge, no matter your background so that you can be a better cross-trainer for your horse. We acknowledge different headsets and training styles and adapt our lunging plan for your horse to best fit your training goals.
For all ages
Are you nervous that you might be in a class that is a completely different age than you? We welcome riders of all ages! Our classes are always a mix of ages and our participants report learning more from other participants who are not their same age. We encourage participants to engage and learn from each other so that we can all complete the course learning even more than we intended.
The Art of Lunging Scholars is tailored to you
We offer group coaching calls and access to our coaches for personal questions because we want to make sure that you are receiving all of the rich information, knowledge, and learning that you can so that you can be the best lunging trainer for your horse you can be.
