A confidential, performance coach may be a useful tool! If it were not for my debilitating performance anxiety, I would love to compete! Fortunately my daughter caught the bug (barrel racing, that is.. not the anxiety) and has accomplished a lot. It has been a wonderfully satisfying adventure assisting her in training and competing around the U.S. There is wisdom in applying the knowledge that each horse/rider combination requires specific fine-tuning to achieve a unique partnership that results in beautiful, smooth, in-sync runs. Software assistance to slow down your submitted run video to enable us to catch even the smallest details to enable me to suggest sometimes very simple yet highly effective changes to improve your time and communication with your horse. In this industry, so much is invested in horses, trucks, trailers, protective equipment, and health-conscious remedies so why not invest in a coach to give your run a second look? I am available for your convenience through either emailed videos, on-site at your facility during practice, or attendance at your event where I can provide video along with later assessment and suggestions. A second look can be priceless in spotting communication confusion, imbalances, unrealized habits and tendencies, discomfort, and timing which enable you and your horse to strive for that *gorgeous* *synchronized* *Turn-n-Burn* run!
