For Riders Who Want to Ride Better
Every rider knows the frustration of hearing the same corrections in lessons — “sit taller,” “stop collapsing,” “find your balance” — without ever being shown why their body struggles to maintain those positions. Without the right strength, stability, understanding, and support, those corrections rarely last.
RiderCise® was created to bridge that gap. From rider-specific workout bundles that build the physical foundations your riding needs, to Fast-Track intensive coaching for riders who want expert guidance and faster clarity, through to fully Bespoke one-to-one support for those needing deeper, individualised work — everything we offer is designed to help you understand how your body actually works, so real progress can happen in the saddle.
Whether you’re building confidence through structured training or working directly with me for personalised coaching, RiderCise® helps you feel more secure in your seat, more connected to your horse, and more confident every time you ride.
RiderCise® is the UK’s leading rider-specific fitness and coaching platform, trusted by thousands of riders for over nine years to improve balance, strength, posture, and confidence in the saddle.
Everything is built specifically for riders — not adapted from generic fitness — combining structured training with expert insight into how a rider’s body actually works, both on and off the horse.
This depth of understanding is what sets RiderCise® apart and why riders at every level choose it as their long-term solution, not a quick fix.
What RiderCise® Offers
RiderCise® is built around one core belief: you can’t change what you don’t understand.
That’s why everything we offer — from workouts to high-touch coaching — is designed to help riders understand how their body actually works, so they can build balance, strength, and confidence in a way that lasts.

Why RiderCise® Works
RiderCise® programs deliver results because they focus on fixing root causes, not chasing symptoms. The workout bundles are deliberately designed to address the underlying physical limitations that show up in the saddle — strength deficits, stability issues, postural weaknesses, and endurance gaps — rather than repeatedly targeting the visible problems riders are constantly told to fix. This is why riders feel genuine, lasting improvement instead of short-term changes that disappear after a few rides.
The bundles don’t require riders to analyse or overthink their body. They work because the structure does that job for them. Each program applies the right stimulus, in the right order, to the areas that actually limit riding — allowing the body to adapt, stabilise, and improve without guesswork or constant correction.
That approach has been refined over years of working with riders at every level — from those rebuilding confidence and comfort in the saddle, to endurance and competitive riders demanding reliability from their body over long distances and high-pressure environments. When the foundation is addressed properly, the same principle applies to everyone: the body becomes more stable, movement becomes easier, and confidence follows naturally.
When riders choose to work with me directly through Fast-Track or Bespoke coaching, that’s where the deeper understanding comes in. This is where we explore why those limitations developed in the first place, how lifestyle and past experiences play a role, and how to guide the body through change with clarity and support. Different pathways — same principle: address what’s underneath, and the results take care of themselves.
Why I Created RiderCise
I’ve been a rider for over 20 years and now share my home in Shropshire with my four Friesian mares. Riding has always been part of who I am — and from the age of 18, I was consistently very fit. I believed I was doing everything right physically, until a high-speed fall from Annick (pictured) showed me otherwise.
Like most riders, I’d had falls before and always got straight back on. But this one was different. Although I remounted immediately, fuelled by adrenaline, the weeks that followed were filled with anxiety, doubt, and a loss of confidence I didn’t recognise in myself. For the first time, I felt unsure about my ability and uncertain about what the future held for my riding.
That experience changed how I understood the rider’s body. It taught me that being “fit” isn’t the same as being supported, and that confidence isn’t lost randomly — it’s shaped by how the body learns to cope and protect itself after key moments. I began to notice how riders carry experiences in their bodies, how habits form, and how physical reactions often make perfect sense once you know where they come from.
That way of seeing riders — looking beyond technique and fitness to understand how the body adapts over time — is what defines my work today. It’s why I now work as a Rider Body & Movement Specialist, helping riders understand what their body is really doing so they can stop blaming themselves and move forward with clarity, strength, and confidence in the saddle.
My background as a rider, coach, fitness professional, and soft tissue therapist allows me to see how a rider’s body truly works — how it adapts, compensates, and protects itself — and to explain that clearly so riders can finally move forward with confidence.
“I Believe Every Rider Can Be GREAT!”
Being a great rider isn’t about what level you ride at or how people view you.
Being a great rider isn’t about your level or status, it is a rider who constantly strives to improve themselves for the benefit of their horse. Who is open to learning, evolving, and even going against the grain in the interest of horse welfare.
