I am a dressage competitor, coach, instructor, clinician, speaker and author.
I have been a member of the United States Equestrian Team and have competed for the US in Canada, Holland, Belgium, France and Germany. I was the reserve rider for the Bronze medal winning Olympic dressage team in Barcelona, Spain and have won nine Horse of the Year awards and three National Freestyle Championships.
I was the 1996 and 2004 Olympic dressage coach for the Canadian 3-Day Event Team in Atlanta and Athens. I also coached several top dressage and 3- Day Event riders in their preparations for the 2000 Olympics and while in Sydney I helped rider Susan Blinks secure a bronze medal for the US dressage team.
I have produced numerous CDs and DVDs and have written five books that have been published both in the US and abroad. My sports psychology book That Winning Feeling! is in its ninth printing and has been translated into several languages.

Sorry for the confusion
This morning I've received a bunch of emails asking about
shipping costs for The Confident Competitor program.
I'm sorry I wasn't more clear. There are NO shipping costs.
You don't have to wait for anything to come in the mail. The
program is completely digital and you get immediate access to it.
So if you've enjoyed the audios and would like more in-depth
training, go to:…

How to Supple Your Dressage Horse’s Shoulders
If your horse’s shoulders are stuck, it’s like having a kink in a water hose. The energy can’t flow from behind, over the…

Are you making these mistakes when your dressage horse shies?
I’ve dealt with a lot of spooky dressage horses, and I find that often shying gets worse because riders do one or all of the following things.
1. Hit or kick him to make him obedient.
2. Make him walk straight up to scary object and face it straight on.
3. Forget to go around your ring in both directions.
4. Force him to go close to the scary object.
5. Patting and soothing him while he’s shying.
Let’s understand the nature of horses:

Diana said… - Hello - I found your blog on counter flexing at the canter interesting. At what stage in a horse's training would you recommend introducing or using the counter flexing and when would you not use it for a horse?

CAROLYN JENKINSON said… - Hi Jane, thought i;d pop by and say hello, this is a great place too isnt it ? loads of resources - being sick and not being able to ride means you get to explore places you dont usually get to! - you ready for that reunion?

Karen Murphy said… - Hi Jane - I have your Freedom from Fear tapes and they are just awesome! My worst fear was what might happen on a trail ride. I've used several of your techniques and today we went out on a hack with no prep work. My horse (5 year old QH gelding) and I led (which I never liked to do) and he was great. I knew he would be but I had to get my self relaxed enough to let him be as good as he can be!! Thanks so much!

- Hi, Jane! How have you been? What is the best way to calm down my new 7 yr old mare? She is a rescue, a friend gave her to me. She is afraid if two or more men approach her, but is fine with one. She is usually calm, but once she is hyped up she is unreachable and unteachable for hours. She can run circles around a huge arena forever and still not be tired or worn out. She is a pale grey/white registered Pinto half-Arab. My grandkids can ride her bareback in my paddock without incident. It is when she is somewhere besides home she sometimes gets worried. She is very gentle, smart and beautiful. But like some Arabs , once she gets hyped up,it is whoa, babeeee!! Any advice on how I should work with her to help her? I have had her for 2 weeks. I plan to keep her forever and maybe do endurance with her in the future. She is 7 years old. Thanks, Jane!

Kathy said… - Hi Jane,
Just wanted to thank you for your work at the Osgoode clinic - I was there auditing and managed to take a whole notebook of notes! Better than that, your suppling exercises are FANTASTIC and have changed my entire way of riding. Would you believe that now I can even "feel" where there's resistance - at the poll, neck, shoulder, withers OR hip? Although I always "knew" about these things, I now can feel them and better yet, have concrete techniques to work through them. It's completely changed my horses - physically and mentally - and that was just from AUDITING! Many many thanks!

Heather Sansom at Equifitt.com said… - Hi Jane,
Thank you for the weblink. I've been looking on your links page to see where it is and can't seem to find it. I usually represent the company name as: Equifitt.com Equestrian Fitness. I could send a logo if that were needed. Sincerely, Heather Sansom
ps. Dressage Today liked the piece with Ruth and the Equicizer, but I don't know when they will publish. I'll keep you both informed.
