I just have to tell you how much your exercises have helped my riding and comfort level! In just three short weeks, I went from crawling out to bed after riding to feeling fantastic!! I made a pole run and two futurity runs this weekend on that strong yellow gelding, expecting to be sore again…. nothing. I really can’t thank you enough!

I am really enjoying your program and it is so simple but effective! I can already feel a difference in my lower back! I found your YouTube video of how to release the lower back and I am doing those exercises every day now. I was in the saddle for almost 5 hours yesterday, moving pairs, tagging babies, so on and off and flipping calves a lot and my back felt amazing last night!

Your ticket to becoming a better rider is here!

Truly one of the best clinics I have seen. The integration of the function of the human body and how it contributes to the performance of our horses is brilliant. Actionable take home items to work on well worth the time.

I highly recommend having Aleisha come evaluate all levels of riders from beginners to professional to barrel racers to reiners! I have been riding horses for 25 plus years and have been competing on reiners for the last five years. I have always had a feeling my seat was off, but no one could exactly pinpoint where. But thanks to Aleisha's app and her evaluation I finally feel like I am riding now! 

I can’t begin to express the deep transformation that occurred in every aspect of my life

I was apprehensive at first because I knew I was not in the best shape and I am pretty insecure about my riding ability, but this clinic gave me hope. Aleisha and her staff were kind, positive, and professional. They were there to help find ways to improve your strength, flexibility, and balance to help you meet your goals as a rider.
