Last night's episode was a special Dressage 101 winter webinar to help you kick off your spring with clarity and motivation. If you have been feeling frustrated by the weather, stuck without a plan, or just a little disconnected from your goals, this is your reset.We talked about why we love dressage in the first place, what dressage actually is, and why it is truly for every horse and every rider. I also share simple ways to keep progressing even when you are not riding consistently, including mindset, visualization, fitness, and groundwork.Most importantly, I walk you through the four pillar system I use with every horse and rider: groundwork, independent seat, clear aids, and then exercises. When you have a system, you stop feeling lost and start feeling confident.I hope this gives you a little spark and reminds you that spring is coming and you are absolutely capable of making progress.Happy Riding,AmeliaPS If you are ready for a structured spring kick start, 30 Days to Dressage: Foundations with Amelia begins March 1. It is designed to help you confidently say, “I am a dressage rider,” and actually know what to focus on next.

In this month's episode, Stephany and Aviva interview their first Hometown Hero, Anne Mouen Stahl. With more than forty years of experience teaching both amateur and professional riders, Anne has come to appreciate the profound importance of establishing a strong, reliable foundation in every rider's training. She has been fortunate to train horses and riders through every level of dressage, from Training Level to Grand Prix.

Tonight's Top Three Riding Principles Q&A was a fun chat all about the basics that never stop mattering, no matter what level you ride at. We talked through key dressage terms (because words have specific meanings), and how having clear definitions helps you understand your trainer, your test sheets, and your own training plan so much faster.A big theme was personalization: yes, there are frameworks and “systems” that work… but every horse and rider pair needs a slightly different focus. That's exactly why 30 Days to Dressage starts with an assessment so you know what to prioritize first, and how to build your month in a way that actually fits you.We also dug into a few foundational terms:Dressage (yes, it literally means training) and why it's so much more than movements in an arenaIn front of the leg- responsiveness, not speedIndependent seat and why it's the gateway to clearer aidsThe difference between rhythm vs tempo, and why counting is such a powerful toolSuppleness as both mental + physical relaxation (and how our own tension transfers straight into the horse)We finished with a really helpful mindset piece: when you're learning something new, a little tension is normal. The goal is to work in moments; try the thing, then soften, breathe, reset, and try again. And bonus: visualization matters more than we think (hello Winter Olympics inspiration)If you're joining 30 Days to Dressage, I can't wait for Sunday's training principles lecture,and Nicole's “plan your month” session is going to help you feel so organized and clear heading into the month.

From horse riding success to sparkling in sequins, Chloe tells PJ how a life-changing cancer diagnosis led from the dressage arena to the world stage of figure skating. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode, I'm joined again by my beautiful client Carola and this conversation goes deep. Carola came from a traditional dressage background. She's a certified instructor. She followed the rules. She chased the ribbons. And when things got hard with her horses? She sold them. Until she met Queeny. What followed was not just a horsemanship shift but a complete identity shift. Inside this episode, we talk about: Her mare who wouldn't come to the gate… now she waits for her! From riding on the bit under pressure → to bitless and bareback pad fun plus joy-filled trail rides The "macho" gelding she admits she didn't like in the beginning - and what changed when she realised he was scared and actually so so sweet deep down Her sensitive young horse who needed patience, not force Trailer loading shifts (from shutdown to self-loading with one finger) Supporting horses when they get tipped over threshold (hello spooky sheep!) Beyond the horse transformations, we explore the deeper layer: Frustration. External validation. Never feeling "good enough." Being a high-achieving, analytical professional… who was deeply intuitive but afraid to own it. And how that shifted into: Peace. Self-trust. Patience. Expansion. "I am enough." This is a real-life look at what happens when you stop trying to fix your horses - and start transforming yourself. If you've ever felt frustrated, confused, or like you "should" be further along… this conversation will meet you exactly where you are. And if you're curious about The Field, this episode gives you an honest, grounded glimpse into what's possible - not just in the arena, but in every area of your life. Resources & Next Steps If you'd like to explore further: The Field Client Stories Podcast Playlist — hear conversations with past clients sharing about their journey with their horses through The Field or CEP (the former iteration of The Field). You can hear more about Carola's journey in Season 3 episode 14 of the podcast.  Prepare Your Horse for Any Environment Training Checklist - Whether your horse is spooky, tense, young, or naturally quiet, this free checklist will help you set both yourself and your horse up for success from the ground up.

Last night we had so much fun with For the Love of the Horse – You CAN Ride Dressage Trivia Night, hosted by Nicole.It was such a lighthearted and energizing way to celebrate Valentine's weekend together. We tested our knowledge on dressage terms, basics, and key concepts, and it was amazing to see how much everyone already knows… and how much we're all still learning.What I loved most was the feeling of community. Riders at all different stages coming together, laughing, thinking, learning, and just enjoying the process. That's what this sport is really about. Loving our horses. Loving the journey. And realizing that yes, you can ride dressage.I hope you play along and see how many you get right

This episode kicks off our Valentine's Day weekend series, and it's all about the love of the horse and what actually makes riders successful in dressage.We share three simple truths.Dressage benefits every horse, physically and mentally, no matter their breed or “type.”Kicking and pulling doesn't create harmony, so if you feel stuck in that cycle, it's a sign to pause and change the approach.And lessons matter, but they can't be the only thing, because progress comes faster when you're also learning between rides through good education, ideas, and a system you can follow.You'll also hear some of our favourite transformation stories, including Sparky and Chocolate, plus a really helpful reminder about not over facing your horse. Break everything into smaller pieces, build confidence, and let it take the time it takes.We answer some great community questions too, why so many riders feel stuck at Training and First Level, and how judges score tests. The big takeaway is to keep measuring you versus you, use feedback as information, and stay focused on the journey with your horse.Happy Riding,AmeliaPS tonight, Friday Feb 13th, Nicole is hosting a fun trivia night, if you want to join that live you can join it here on YouTube, then Saturday we're live from the barn, and Sunday we're back again for another live chat.And don't forget to share why you love to ride with #ILoveRiding for a chance to win enrollment in 30 Days to Dressage Foundations with Amelia

Last night's Q and A was such a fun conversation about horse personalities and how to adjust your riding to match the horse you have. Stacie joined us live, which was a treat because many of you know her from the comments section and as a Strides member. We covered everything from reading your horse's natural tendencies to adjusting your own energy and building confidence in both young and experienced horses.Understanding personalitySome horses are hot, some laid back, and many shift depending on our energy. The big takeaway was noticing the small signs and matching your approach. Raise your energy for a dull horse. Slow everything down for a sensitive one.Groundwork builds confidenceFor green or new horses, groundwork is the place to start. Leading, bending, yielding, and responding to pressure help the horse feel safe and give you tools you can use later in the saddle. It has made a huge difference for Stacy and her boys.The basics always winWinter is the perfect time to revisit stretching, bending, rhythm, and suppleness. Going back to basics makes everything easier when you start schooling movements again.Thank you to the Dressage FoundationWe also highlighted the Dressage Foundation and the many grants that support riders. Stacie recently received the Gifted Memorial Grant, and our own “Dressage for All” Youth Fund will award its first grants this spring. Community support truly keeps our sport thriving.Thank you all for joining and for being part of this amazing community. Your questions and your stories are what make these live sessions so meaningful.Happy ridingAmeliaPS. Don't forget to RSVP for Bootcamp coming in January!
