10 Rider Tips to make you look like a Pro

Trotting In With Intent- You don't need talent to show up like you mean it. Own the ring.

Listening Like It Matters- Great riders hear what's said the first time. Then apply it.

Staying Present Under Pressure- Zoning out or spiraling helps no one. Be where your horse is.

Soft in the Face, Firm in the Core- Feel starts with your body language.

Fixing It Now, Not Later-Don't wait for perfect timing or a fresh start. Try to fix something.

Using Your Turns Like a Pro- A thinking rider uses the whole arena to their advantage.

Practicing the Easy Stuff Like It's Hard-Because it is when the pressure's on.

Staying Open, Not Defensive- You're not being corrected because you're bad. You're being coached because you're capable.

Loving the Work More Than the Applause-Ribbons don't make riders. Rides do.

Making the Horse Feel Like a Genius

That's not talent. That's leadership.
