It’s Mindset March on the pod, and there is no one we’d rather kick it off with than mindset and performance coach Jenni Winter-Leach of Flying Changes Mindset. In this episode, Jenni answers your questions on feelings of failure towards your horse, losing your riding mojo, focus and reframing. It’s definitely an episode that we can all learn from, with plenty of ‘huh’ moments. 

This week’s tack room tipple is a big success, and Katie quizzes Tania on mounting, exciting canters and beginning a new partnership.

Can you imagine going on a podcast to tell the world what Becky Moody does that annoys you? That’s exactly the question that Kim, Becky’s ‘work wife’ answers on today’s pod. We loved chatting with Becky and Kim about how they work together, and their enduring friendship. Do listen for a real insight into being a travelling groom for a top rider. 

Tania talks back engagement, haunches in a ducking behind the bridle, and this week’s tack room tipple raises Katie’s eyebrows.

Happy pod day, and happy (almost) Valentine’s Day! In today’s pod, we chat with the gorgeous Louise Bell, and her work wife - her groom, Emma.

If you are a beleaguered equestrian that tends to grown as you get out of bed with every joint aching and sore, or if, like Katie, you have had a career in clock watching while exercising, then this is the pod for you. You may have heard of it, or you may say, ‘Reformer, what?’ but in today’s pod we talk about the new trend sweeping the country as we continue our investigation into riders as athletes. If you’re looking for something that totally supports your body and strengthens all the bits you need to ride, then this is as close to perfect as it comes as today we chat with Cheryl Probin, the woman behind Elevate Reformer Pilates. Being the fair game kind of girl that she is, Tania has a go. Watch our socials for reels on that! 

Also in this episode, Tania talks shoulder in and shoulder fore, returning to riding and trot-canter transitions while Katie sees the benefit of no broadband when the pod moves to the pub!

Today we are continuing our exploration of ‘Riders as Athletes’. You don’t need to be a professional or competitive rider to be considered an athlete, and this episode applies to you - whatever you do with your horse. Today we are finding out more about osteopathy and how it can help you in your riding goals. Join us as we chat to Ben Holland from Core Osteo. Ben is not only and osteo, but also a PT. Oh, and he treats Tania and keeps her on the road. Or on the horse. 

Tania talks leg positions and tricky first horses, and we enjoy a new backroom tipple.

Happy New Year, Pod Team! It’s a New Year and a new start for you as an athlete. Yes, you. You are an athlete!

Jo answers your questions and her advice is relevant to us all.
