Grounded Seat – Dry-Ride Your Way🌟🐴
Welcome to the 6-Week Challenge
Hi there, I’m so glad you’re here!
If you’re a dedicated rider with your own horse—but somehow, along the way, you’ve lost confidence, motivation, or the ease you once had in the saddle—you’re in the right place.
Maybe you’ve taken a break, or maybe you’ve simply noticed that tension, hesitation, and self-doubt are creeping in more than you’d like. And because you’re a thoughtful, precise rider who values quality, feel, and deep connection, this struggle doesn’t sit well with you. You want riding to feel harmonious, effortless, and fulfilling—but right now, it feels like something is holding you back.
Let’s change that.
Together, we’ll transform your riding experience--from stiffness to flow, from overthinking to body awareness, from self-doubt to deep confidence.
Your body already knows how to ride. Let’s unlock that knowledge and bring joy back into every ride.
Is This for You?
✔️ You have one or more horses and have been riding for years.
✔️ You’ve taken a break from riding and now feel disconnected from your seat, your body, or your confidence.
✔️ You want to quiet the mental noise and let go of tension, self-doubt, and overthinking.
✔️ You dream of riding with softness, balance, and deep connection—where you and your horse move in harmony.
✔️ You value schooled riding and want to refine your seat as a clear, effortless communication tool.
If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place.
In Just 6 Weeks, You Can Transform Your Riding
Imagine stepping back into the saddle feeling grounded, confident, and in tune with your horse. No more questioning yourself. No more fighting your own body. Just pure, effortless riding.
This practical, hands-on program will guide you step by step—starting from the ground—to:
✅ Release Physical & Mental Tension
• Let go of stiffness, anxiety, and self-doubt
• Reconnect with the joy that made you fall in love with riding in the first place
✅ Develop a Deep, Balanced Seat
• Improve your stability and core awareness
• Build unshakable confidence in your body’s ability to support your horse
✅ Heighten Your Body Awareness & Feel Your Horse’s Movements
• Tune in to the smallest shifts in your horse’s movement through a more sensitive and self-aware seat
• Learn to invite your horse’s movement into your own body, rather than reacting to it
• Discover how tiny adjustments in your core can guide your horse toward better balance
• Experience riding as a conversation, where your seat listens as much as it speaks
✅ Overcome Common Riding Challenges
• Find flow in your movements, so you don’t grip, brace, or fight your own body
• Unlock a soft, responsive seat that invites your horse to move freely and happily
This is not just a theory course—this is a guided, immersive experience where we move, feel, and retrain our bodies together.
Are You Ready to Feel Like a Rider Again?

Why Dry-Riding?
Because great riding starts before you even mount up.
By training without your horse, you remove habits, tension, and overcompensation—allowing you to focus purely on your own balance, feel, and awareness.
🔹 Clear Your Mind & Body – Without distractions, you develop a deep, centered seat and release tension before bringing it to your horse.
🔹 Refine Your Feel – Tune into small shifts in your posture and breathing, so your body communicates with precision and softness.
🔹 Rebuild Confidence & Ease – Dry-Riding removes self-doubt and stiffness, so you return to the saddle feeling grounded and in control.
🔹 A Huge Benefit for Your Horse – When you connect with yourself first, your horse meets a rider who is calm, balanced, and present. No unnecessary tension, no confusion—just a clear, inviting space for true communication.
When you finally mount up, you and your horse will move as one—effortlessly, freely, and in harmony.
✨ If you want a horse that responds with softness, start by riding from clarity. Dry-Ride your way there! ✨

"Before this course, I always felt like I was fighting my own body when I rode. After a break from riding, I just didn’t feel like myself in the saddle anymore. My seat felt stiff, my balance was off, and I kept overthinking every little movement. It was frustrating because I knew how I wanted to ride, but my body just wasn’t following."
"These six weeks of Dry-Riding changed everything. At first, I was surprised by how much I could improve without even sitting on my horse! The exercises made me aware of my posture, my breathing, and all the little tensions I was carrying. Slowly, I started feeling more connected to my body—and when I finally got back in the saddle, my horse felt it too!"
"Now, I don’t have to force anything. I sit softer, breathe deeper, and move with my horse instead of against him. He is more relaxed, more responsive, and our rides feel so much smoother. I wish I had done this sooner!"
"If you’re struggling with stiffness, tension, or just feeling disconnected after a riding break--do this course! It makes such a difference!"

Thank you for the incredibly instructive time. Your illustrative and amusing way of teaching is a special experience every time. You challenge me and help me progress in a way that I can feel my improvement without feeling overwhelmed. Step by step, you build my knowledge so I truly understand the impact of each movement and action, and learn to use it effectively.
Once you've experienced the finesse of engaging and moving different parts of your body and your horse, and feel like you become one with the horse, you don't want anything else. It was hard for me to go back home again... Thank you for everything, Hanna! 🥰🥰❤️

"I had been riding for years, but after a long break, I felt completely disconnected from my body. Every time I mounted my horse, I second-guessed myself—was I too stiff? Too tense? Was I confusing my horse without realizing it? I wanted to ride with ease and confidence again, but I didn’t know where to start."
"Joining the Grounded Seat – Dry-Ride Your Way course was exactly what I needed. Over these six weeks, I have completely changed how I feel in my own body. Through the Dry-Riding exercises, I became aware of small tensions I didn’t even realize I was holding. I learned to balance myself without gripping, without overthinking—just feeling and allowing movement to happen."
"Now, when I get on my horse, I no longer bring stiffness and doubt with me. Instead, I bring clarity, balance, and softness. My horse immediately feels the difference—he is more relaxed, more willing, and our rides are finally enjoyable again. I don’t have to ‘fix’ anything while riding because I’ve already prepared myself before even getting on!"
"This course has given me back my confidence, my joy, and my ability to truly connect with my horse. If you’ve ever felt stuck, tense, or unsure in the saddle, I can’t recommend this enough—start with yourself first, and everything will change!"

"When I was a teenager, it was 'normal' to be yelled at, blamed, and asked to punish the horse in riding lessons. It took me a while to understand why I stopped riding and didn't return to lessons, even after getting my own horse.
My riding lessons with Hanna – her fantastic way of explaining, her structure, and her humor – restored my confidence in being instructed on a horse. Hanna has a lovely way of helping you converse with the horse and tune into your own senses.❤️
Thank you so much, Hanna!"
