This is your virtual arena inside the Online Equestrian Centre.
Dressage School Online is where riders train, compete, and work with me online in a way that keeps progress moving and curiosity alive.
You’ll find focus, challenge, reflection, and enjoyment woven together so you can enjoy the process and leave each phase of your training with a clearer sense of what comes next for you and your horse.
If you’re curious about how this works in practice, start with the Dressage Progress Plan.

What’s happening in the virtual arena
Test & Train. A monthly online dressage clinic
Test & Train is a live, small-group online clinic that brings training, competition, and coaching together in a focused, practical way.
Riders choose a competition venue, either online or in person, select their test, and bring their test sheet to a coaching conversation with me. We look at what’s really going on in the test, how it connects to your training at home, and what to take forward next.
When riders next ride the test, it's with a different level of preparation and understanding, and the work feels different.
Places are limited and released monthly to fit around online competition schedules.
How Riders Train Inside Dressage School Online
Build Confidence
This is where many riders begin, or return.
Confidence here isn’t about fixing a problem or recovering from a setback. It’s about developing confidence as a skill, something you practise, revisit, and carry with you as your work evolves.
Riders build confidence through practice. Riding with new insight. Noticing different responses. Feeling small shifts that change how the work comes together. Over time, confidence grows as riders learn how to approach new challenges, revisit familiar work with fresh awareness, and recognise what helps them and their horse work at their best.
Confidence becomes something riders can reconnect with deliberately, bringing clarity, steadiness, and a sense of ease into their riding.
Train with Purpose
Purpose gives structure to training without making it rigid.
Inside Dressage School Online, purpose isn’t about chasing perfection or following a fixed plan. It’s about understanding what you’re working on, why it matters, and how each session connects to the bigger picture.
Riders learn how to shape their training with intention. Choosing focus points that suit their horse, adapting when things change, and recognising when to stay with a task or step back. With clarity comes energy, and training becomes something riders look forward to, a place to explore, refine, and progress with confidence in the process they’re building.
Training with purpose helps riders feel organised, confident in their choices, and clear about how their day-to-day work contributes to long-term development.
Ride for Results
Results matter, but they don’t stand alone.
Inside Dressage School Online, results emerge through the work riders are building. They appear as clear signs of progress, moments where training comes together, and achievements that reflect growing understanding between horse and rider.
Riders are supported to notice and celebrate these gains through reflection, feedback, and conversation. Not only outcomes or scores, but the changes they can feel and see in their riding. The moments when work feels more settled, more balanced, or more reliable. Results become something riders recognise with confidence and build on, rather than something to judge or chase.
Riding for results feels encouraging and rewarding. Each achievement brings greater clarity and direction, helping riders move forward with belief in what they’re developing and excitement about where their training can lead.
Achieve Dressage. Progress you can see and feel
For many riders, Achieve Dressage becomes the place they return to again and again.
It offers a way to notice progress as it happens, mark meaningful milestones, and stay connected to the work over time, not just where you are going, but how the journey feels as it unfolds with your horse.
Achieve Dressage is shaped around the reality that progress moves in seasons.
There are times of learning and discovery.
Times when things settle and deepen.
Times when confidence grows through repetition, care, and understanding.
Every ride adds something.
Every test offers information.
