Dressage Performance Coaching
Are you sure you are achieving your full potential or is it time for a different approach?
Traditional forms of dressage training see the instructor working with the rider in the transfer of skills. They take what they have learnt and pass it on to you. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. A tried and tested method that works for many.
Unfortunately, this method doesn’t work for everyone. The reason is simple – you are not your instructor. Yes, you will experience similar issues and knowledge of their experiences may be of help to you. It is the unique combination that is you and your horse that face your own very particular set of challenges.
The times they are a changin’
Everyone has access to a wealth of knowledge; forums, blogs, friends and experts on social media. Thankfully for me as a blogger, riders spend hours researching the latest training glitch and searching for answers. The long established method of standing in the middle of the arena calling out instruction is rather conventional. Whilst this type of training forms part of the training package, innovative and progressive coaching, which is supportive and non-judgmental of your views, lifestyle and aspirations; coaching that incorporates mind-set, physical fitness, planning and motivational elements is the future.
Is your current training regime giving you room for developing ALL of your skills?
What if you could pull together a tailored program that draws on your existing knowledge and skills. A program that accounted for your personal preferences and experiences and enables you to tap into your efforts and resources so that you can mould your very own system of training?
This program does not have you wholly relying on others. Would you give it a go? AND … What if this system of Dressage Performance Coaching was the same price or less than your average riding instructor?
Be inspired to commit to action and lasting personal progression?

The Crystal System Dressage Performance Coaching Program is a combination of performance and skills coaching which has been derived from business, sports psychology models and general management approaches. It enables learning and development to occur, thus improving performance. The focus is on a range of skills required to ride at your very best; all in a facilitative, coaching style instead of a ‘telling’ or ‘directive’ style.
