Hi, I’m Bethany

As the head coach of RISE Equestrian Performance, my goal is simple: help riders—especially amateurs—gain knowledge and build the skills to reach their goals while still having fun and staying connected to the love they have for the horse.

I’ve always been fascinated by the world of human performance. I’m a Pressure Proof Coaching Academy (PPCA) certified mentor with a background in psychology, performance, and neuroscience.

As an equestrian, you can find me studying horsemanship and splitting my time between Europe and the US to explore dressage, barrel racing, and reining with the most skilled people I can find. I love trying new things and am constantly learning more to share about how we can perform at our best!

My coaching combines proven sports psychology techniques with practical equestrian insights. Together, we’ll build the resilience, focus, and confidence you need to not only achieve your goals—but to truly enjoy every moment in the saddle.

What you can expect

Clear structure, practical tools, and support you can actually use in the saddle.

• Skill development: build confidence and consistency through repeatable training habits.
• Pressure management: stay present, make decisions, and recover quickly after mistakes.
• Injury & rehab mindset support: return with clarity, patience, and trust in your process.
• Tools you can use immediately: simple routines for home, lessons, and show days.
• Progress without losing joy: stay connected to the love you have for the horse.
