Now Booking Fall Rider Pilates Series

Looking for something different for your riders this fall?

Bring rider fitness directly to your barn.

My outdoor Pilates for Equestrian Performance classes are designed specifically for equestrians, helping riders improve:

• Core strength
• Balance
• Mobility
• Body awareness
• Stability in the saddle
• Symmetry and posture

No riding required, just a grassy area, a yoga mat, and a willingness to become a stronger athlete for your horse.

Perfect as:

• A weekly barn fitness series
• Pony Club programming
• Riding club events
• Off-season conditioning
• Clinic add-ons

As an Equestrian Canada Licensed Coach, STOTT PILATES Mat Instructor, and competitive FEI Para-Dressage rider, I love helping riders bridge the gap between fitness and performance.

I’m opening a limited number of barn partnerships this season.

Send me a message if you’d like to chat about bringing Pilates for Equestrian Performance to your barn!

🐴 Horsemanship is so much more than riding.

One of the core values at B. Fex Horsemanship & Equitation is developing knowledgeable, confident horse people, not just “riders”.

This week’s warm temperatures provide the perfect opportunity to slow down, step out of the saddle, and focus on the skills that create true partnerships with our horses.

Throughout the week, Coach Brittany and Coach Ella will be exploring topics such as:
• Groundwork and communication
• Stable management and horse care
• Grooming and tack knowledge
• Horse behaviour and body language
• Handling skills and safety
• Equine health and wellness
• Rider fitness and biomechanics (for some groups!)

Every great rider starts by becoming a great horse person. The time we spend learning why horses behave the way they do, how to care for them properly, and how to communicate effectively on the ground builds trust that carries into every ride.

Our horses give so much to us. During periods of extreme heat, it’s important that we listen to them too. By choosing unmounted horsemanship lessons this week, we’re not only prioritizing their wellbeing, we’re investing in skills that will make our riders better partners, both in and out of the saddle.

We’re looking forward to a week of hands-on learning, asking questions, building confidence, and strengthening the horse-human connection. ❤️🐴

Have you ever ridden a Paso Fino?

Check out Riley’s introduction to raised poles this afternoon at his Paso Corto and Paso Largo gaits! 🤩

Another highlight from last week’s young horse training bootcamp!

Felicia and Finn’s first trot under saddle!

I’ve been having a blast working with this pair on the ground, and now in the tack.

It’s so rewarding to see their partnership grow, and to help Finn to learn his “big boy job”. He’s so eager and willing to learn, and his confidence is growing with every ride!

Just popping over some sticks in our dressage saddle… don’t mind us. 😉

Last week, I had the opportunity to take Sierra, my Lazy Lou quarter horse, to this beautiful arena Debbie Stocker FIVE days in a row to introduce her to jumping with help from Debbie Stocker !

We also spent some time each day working with her young Lazy Lou quarter horse, born the same year! It’s so much fun to work with horses at all different stages of their development, and to be the one they experience these “firsts” with! ♥️

Sierra’s first “crossrail”!

I love that we were able to capture this “first” on camera, with my mare. ♥️

Thanks Debbie Stocker for encouraging us to play over some poles this weekend! 🤩
