Ride iQ Love

"Perhaps even more than the many invaluable lessons, I love the little happy surprise hidden in each one that makes something click for me. There have been so many. Doug Payne's instruction about keeping an active gate into your halt got my steed Bugsy his first 10!"

"Ride iQ is an absolute game changer. I ride alone 90% of the time, and I've fallen victim to just hacking most days after work and convincing myself that 'just getting my horse moving' is sufficient. The app has motivated me to turn those hacks into riding with purpose."

"Ride iQ is quickly becoming my favorite thing! My horse and I ended up with the best flatwork we've had outside of a lesson in a long time and way better awareness of things I usually let slide.​"

"I had a great ride with Kyle Carter [on Ride iQ] today! But I think the other riders in the ring think I'm a bit crazy because Kyle made me laugh out loud at the beginning of the lesson! Love this app!!"

"First lesson--I tried Doug Payne's "Unsteady Connection" warmup. Loved it! Wasn't sure how it would flow listening and riding, if I'd have to pause or play catch up, but not at all! Definitely feel I gave my horse a better ride!"

"Thank you Ride iQ creators and coaches! My Paisley and I competed at The Event at TerraNova this weekend, and we finished in a personal best 4th place! Since joining Ride iQ, we have now had personal best rides and finishes two weekends in a row!"

"We had a really good weekend at Morven Park, winning the Novice Rider division! While I had expert coaching on-site, my dressage trainer said she has noticed a big difference in my position and in Lu's responsiveness, which I chalk up to my Ride iQ lessons!"

"Today was the end of my free trial with the Ride iQ app, and I am 100% hooked! It's so helpful to just have the voice in your ear talking you through different exercises and keeping your mind focused on that particular ride's goal."

Ride iQ is going to retire the meaning of the word "favorite" because can ALL the lessons be my favorite! Today's winning combo was Jon Holling's "Quick Warmup" followed by his "Stage 1, Shoulder-In." This is the most correct riding period of my life. Thank you, Ride iQ.
