Frequently Asked Questions

Who is this course designed for?

Compete with Confidence is designed for riders that understand the importance to train their mind as well as their muscles.

The course is for the rider that wants to excel out competing. This might be improving competition results and performances, and it can also mean wanting to create a better connection with their horse and learn how to become a more relaxed and confident rider.

How long will the course take to complete?

There is about 90 minutes of video content spread over the 18 lessons. Plus, working through your workbooks, which will take about 45 minutes to an hour each module. Therefore, you can expect to work through a module within 1 – 1 ½ hours.

Making this course very achievable for even the busiest of riders. 

Just think, if you don’t feel like riding on a particular day, maybe it’s raining, have an injured horse, or it's too hot, then spend the time you would have riding learning how to improve your competition mindset.

How come this course is priced at this price?

Compete with Confidence is my signature course, and has been my most popular course over the years. The original cost to purchase this course was $249, however, this course is now over 5 years old. And while the content is still super relevant and up to date, the technical delivery of the videos and workbooks are a little behind time!! Therefore, I have heavily discounted this course. I may in the future, re-record this video, however, at this stage, I'm not sure when this will happen. Please note, that the video recordings are more than satisfactory for learning and the sound and visual quality are still at a good standard. 

How long will I have access to Compete with Confidence?

You can work through the workshop as many times as you like over a 12-month period from the date of purchase.

What kind of technology do I need to access this course?

You can listen to and watch the video lessons on your Smartphone, iPad, or Computer. All you need is an internet connection.

This course is ideal to listen to as you are driving, saddling up, or cleaning stables!

"Being time poor like most riders, I love being able to stay in the comfort of my own home and complete each Compete with Confidence Module in my own time. As I work through each lesson I feel more empowered and motivated about reaching my goals. It's a relief to know performance anxiety is becoming much more recognised and there is now wonderful help and advice that is easily accessible through an online course such as this one."
