I don't have service at my farm. Can I download the lessons?
Yes! Click on the lesson you want to download and then click “…” You’ll see a Download toggle. Turn the toggle on and that lesson will be saved within the Library section of your app under Downloads. You can listen to all downloaded lessons without service.
I logged into the app. Where should I start?
Your first time in the Ride iQ app...this is exciting! First, take the Ride iQ Lesson Finder Quiz. It only takes 2 minutes, and it will equip you with 15-20 lessons that will be a great fit for you and your horse!
Within the app, you can click the search icon (it looks like a magnifying glass) in the upper righthand corner of the screen to search for any lessons from your list. You can also navigate to lessons or browse lessons by clicking Lessons in the bottom navigation bar.
Tap on any lesson to view the lesson description, which includes what type of horse/rider the lesson is most suitable for, anything you may want to look at before riding (a diagram or short video clip), and a play-by-play of what to expect during the lesson.
When you find one you like, get on your horse and press play!
What disciplines is Ride iQ for?
Ride iQ currently caters to english disciplines with coaches who ride at the top level of Eventing, Hunter/Jumpers, and Dressage. The app also features the expertise of veterinarians, sports psychology coaches, farriers, judges, grooms, rider strength and conditioning coaches, natural horsemanship and groundwork experts, and the list goes on.
How many on-demand audio lessons are on the app?
Right now, there are over 400 lessons to choose from on the app. New lessons are added every Tuesday at 10am ET. Lessons can be filtered by topic, coach, duration, and level.
What levels is Ride iQ suitable for?
Ride iQ is for riders of all levels, ages, and aspirations!
The lessons span from all-walk beginner lessons to lessons focused on perfecting upper level movements. Our members include young kids learning how to ride all the way to professionals who are using Ride iQ during their training rides. If you’re worried there won’t be lessons for you, worry-no-more! We have you covered.
What headphones should I use for Ride iQ?
Any wireless headphones you like will work great! If you’re looking to buy a pair, we recommend Aftershokz headphones. Aftershokz use bone conduction technology so you can hear your audio lesson without having buds directly in your ears. They’re comfortable under a helmet and can withstand the wear and tear of activity. There are a few models to choose from–they all work great, including the least expensive Open Move model ($80).
If you prefer a bluetooth speaker, we recommend the Noxgear 39g Wearable Bluetooth Speaker (named 39g because it only weighs 39 grams). Yes, wearable! You can clip this lightweight speaker to your shirt and carry-on without distraction–no-bounce guaranteed!
