HANDLE YOUR SPOOKY HORSE AND YOUR NERVES S0 YOU BOTH FEEL SAFE AND CALM

Your horse is spooky. You’re anxious. And every ride feels like a test of your nerves.

You can’t always control what your horse notices.

You can’t always stop your mind imagining everything that might go wrong.

But you can learn how to understand your horse’s behaviour, recognise the early warning signs, and manage your own anxiety when things feel unpredictable.

That’s exactly what the Spooky Season Survival Kit is designed to help you do.

So many riders find their horses are most spooky in the winter...

Blowing winds. Snow sliding off the arena roof.  Shorter days.

The arena looks and sounds different - and your horse is on high alert.

Winter is coming, but you can be ready before it arrives.

Take the horse out of the equation and you may still feel scared.

Take your fear out of the equation and your horse may still be spooky.

These two masterclasses in The Spooky Season Survival Kit work on both sides of the problem... 

so you  and your horse can start feeling safer, calmer and more confident together.

Inside the Spooky Season Survival Kit

Masterclass 1: How To Handle A Spooky Horse

A 90-minute online masterclass to help you understand why your horse spooks and what you can do about it.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Spot the early signs that happen before the spook, so you can respond before things escalate.

  • Understand what may be causing your horse to feel worried or reactive.

  • Use simple groundwork techniques to build confidence and trust.

  • Include confidence-building exercises in your everyday routine with your horse.

  • Calm yourself and your horse from the saddle when something unexpected happens.

  • Build a safer, more positive experience for both of you.

You’ll finish the masterclass with a better understanding of your horse and practical next steps to help you both feel more secure.

Masterclass 2: How To Stop Scaring Yourself When Horse Riding

A 60-minute online masterclass to help you manage the “what if?” thoughts that can make riding feel frightening before you’ve even mounted.

You’ll learn:

  • Why you can’t simply tell yourself to stop worrying.

  • How to recognise when your fear response is helping you stay safe, and when it is making things harder.

  • Quick tools to help you feel calmer when anxiety spikes.

  • Simple techniques to stop catastrophising and focus on what you can do.

  • How to interrupt the habit of worrying about everything that could go wrong.

  • One practical daily habit to help improve your riding confidence over time.

These are the same kinds of techniques used with 1:1 clients to help them feel more confident and enjoy riding again.

STUDENT WINS

I loved the Spooky Horse class. It made so much sense....

Today it is very windy here and my horse Tommy hates the wind. I just led him to the field with a loose lead rope and gave him time to get used to the flapping bags etc. and it made all the difference!

This Masterclass was extremely helpful. 

Reinforced some positives I already do and also gave me pointers on what I need to work on. Thank you Anne Gage

Who is this for?

The Spooky Season Survival Kit is for nervous mid-life horse riders who:

  • Have a horse that spooks at noises, shadows or things that move.
  • Feel their own anxiety rise as soon as their horse becomes tense.
  • Worry that their horse might spook, even when everything seems fine.
  • Have been told to “just ride through it” and know that advice isn’t helping.
  • Want to feel safer, calmer and more in control when things become unpredictable.
  • Are willing to work on both their horse’s confidence and their own.

Who is it not for?

This kit isn’t for riders looking for an instant fix or a magic shortcut.

It isn’t for riders who believe punishment is the answer to a frightened horse.

And it isn’t for anyone who is unwilling to look at their own side of the equation.

You don’t need to become fearless. You do need to learn what to do when fear appears.

Frequently Asked Questions

 My horse spooks at everything. Will this really help? 

Yes - and that's exactly who this kit is for. You'll learn to spot the early signs of tension before the spook, so you can respond while your horse is still thinking, not reacting. The principles apply whether your horse spooks at noises, shadows, tarps, or new places.

I'm a beginner. Is this kit right for me?

Absolutely. Both masterclasses are designed for riders of all levels. The techniques are practical and easy to follow - you don't need any special equipment, just a halter, a lead rope, and some treats.

How do I access the masterclasses?

Instantly. As soon as you purchase, you'll receive access to both video masterclasses. You can watch on your computer, tablet, or phone - anywhere you have internet.

How long do I have access? 

You get lifetime access. Purchase once and revisit the classes whenever you need them.

My horse is spookiest in winter. Won't I need this before the snow flies? 

Exactly why I'm launching now. I asked my community which season their horse is most spooky - the overwhelming answer was winter. This kit gives you the skills to practice now, while conditions are calm, so you're ready before the leaves start swirling and the tarps start rattling. 

Why are there two prices? Which one do I pay?  

It depends where you live. Canadian residents pay $97 CAD plus HST - no exchange rate penalty. US and international customers pay $97 USD. Choose the button that matches your country at checkout. 

I'm Canadian. Why do I pay HST? 

Canadian sales tax (HST) is charged at the rate for your province, as required by Canadian law. The $97 CAD price is exclusive of tax - you'll see the exact HST amount at checkout. 

I'm outside Canada. Do I pay HST? 

No. HST only applies to Canadian residents. US and international customers pay the flat $97 USD.

When does the offer close? 

The Spooky Season Survival Kit is available for $97 until October 31 at midnight. After that, the bundle offer closes - so you have time to learn the skills before winter spooking begins.
