I am an 11-year old advanced rider who is working with a green pony hunter. Your flatwork systems and jumping exercise videos have helped me tremendously in the short time that I have been subscribed to this website. By combining these techniques into the work I do when schooling my horse and during my lessons, I have achieved a greater level of accuracy and precision in my riding and training of this horse. Great job Mr. Traurig!

Hello Bernie. I gave my daughter Ryann a subscription to EquestrianCoach for Christmas and she LOVES it. She is a new, young professional and this is a wonderful tool for her. Thank you for creating it. God bless.

Bernie,
I am the director of the Goucher College Riding program in Baltimore, MD. Jim Cantwell was my former teacher and friend and often spoke highly of you. I wanted to tell you that I am enjoying equestriancoach.com and my friend, Paul Cronin, encouraged me to join. I earned my USHJA Trainer's Certification last year and isn't it great that there is more emphasis on education. So again, thank you for creating this website! The video's are well-done and a great resource.
Best Regards,
Patte Zumbrun
Equestrian Director, Goucher College

"I've been riding since age 14 and have been lucky enough to always have a horse or two in training at a show stable with some of the Nation's top trainers. Yet I feel that EQUESTRIAN COACH .COM has been the best coach I have ever had because its format allows me to click back and check in as many times as I need to get the information again and again and again. It really is useful to have a coach that doesn't mind repeating and demonstrating over and over again ....without getting upset!! Taking my own time to retain what I hear and see on Bernie's training videos allows the information to really sink-in and I feel as if I've been really trained. Once that happened, my whole riding changed. I became a thinking rider, and I realized that I had always been a dependent, listening-for-my-trainer-while-I-ride, kind of a rider. No matter who is on the ground helping you, however good that person may be, it is no use once s/he goes away unless I make the information my own. With EQUESTRIANCOACH.COM, I feel like I always have the best coaching at hand and I am finally becoming an independent, thinking rider and a better horseman. Bernie's style is empowering and precise and I am grateful for this website. Thank you Bernie."

"I wanted to contact you because I have gotten a tremendous benefit from the very short amount of time that I have been using EquestrianCoach.com... I am riding ten young horses a day for a breeder/dealer in Germany, and they have responded wonderfully to your flatwork system. It's so simple and clear for them to understand, and I have seen immediate results and so has my boss. Equestriancoach.com is brilliant. It's amazing that I can basically learn your system while I am in another country. And it's way better than a book. Thank you for creating it."

"Having previously had the honor of doing clinics with Bernie, I am so excited to have all of his knowledge at my finger tips. Every time I have ridden with him I become a better rider. He always puts the horse's well being first, so I know that whatever he is teaching me is of maximum benefit to my horse and I as a team. There is no better deal than to sign up for this site. I logged in last night and have already watched 5 videos! I cant wait to practice with my new baby horse... thanks so much Bernie."

“I sat down to watch one video, and an hour later I had watched about five,” said Steve McAllister of Martin McAllister Training about his introduction to
EquestrianCoach.com. “Jenni and I told all our clients that they need to subscribe, and that first night of viewing videos I signed up for a year. Bernie supports what we teach, and I learned things that will help me coach my riders better and prepare my horses better.”

"Equestrian Coach is an invaluable resource for both amateurs and professionals. Bernie has taken his brilliantly simple common sense horsemanship and conveys it in a way that can be useful to riders and instructors of all levels. His knowledge combined with the insight from some of the leading riders and trainers today has provided me with a trustworthy source to which I can refer for any question that I may have, as well as for my continuing education."

"I have been showing in the Hunter/Jumper ring for 8 years and riding for 9. I currently ride show jumpers at the Grand Prix level thanks to Bernie's system. I study between 1-3 videos on EquestrianCoach.com two nights a week. When I finish with a video, I watch it all over again and find that I learn something new after each viewing. The videos on Equestriancoach.com are easy to understand and I get to work at my own pace with each individual horse, from barley broke to Grand Prix level. I personally recommend Equestrian Coach to anyone who wants to become a better rider at any level. Thank you Bernie for sharing your incredible horse knowledge and riding system with me and all my barn friends."
