Hey, fellow riders! Let’s talk about something we often forget in the midst of caring for our four-legged partners—ourselves. That’s right, while we spend hours grooming, feeding, and training our horses, we sometimes overlook the most important part of the equation: you. Enter Reformed Riders, where it’s all about YOU becoming the best rider you can be.

Reformed Riders is a game-changing approach to equestrian performance founded by Katie Hamilton, a competitive rider and biomechanics coach with over 30 years of experience in the saddle. Think of it as a rider’s secret weapon to unlock better balance, posture, and strength—because when you’re at your best, your horse will be too.

Here’s where the magic happens. Reformed Riders isn’t just about sitting in the saddle; it’s about transforming how you move, think, and feel as a rider. Let’s break it down:

🏇 Biomechanics: Ride Smarter, Not Harder

Through mechanical horse sessions and posture assessments, you’ll get a deep dive into how your body moves in the saddle. Discover if you’re sitting evenly, blocking your horse’s movement, or unintentionally throwing them off balance—and learn how to fix it.

🎯 Ridden Coaching: Tailored Just for You

Katie’s one-on-one coaching sessions go beyond the basics. Whether you’re struggling with confidence, refining your technique, or prepping for a competition, she’s got you covered.

🧠 Confidence & Mindset: Ride with Joy

Let’s face it—riding can be as much of a mental challenge as a physical one. Reformed Riders helps you tackle fear, build confidence, and truly enjoy your time in the saddle.

Why Reformed Riders?

Here’s the thing: Reformed Riders isn’t just about riding better. It’s about feeling better, and doing better for your horse!
