Schooling Sessions: A Practical Training Log for Everyday Riding is a structured training journal designed for riders who want to develop consistency, clarity, and purposeful progress in the saddle. Suitable for riders of any discipline, this logbook helps track daily schooling sessions, conditioning work, skill development, and long-term improvement for both horse and rider.
This journal supports thoughtful riding by guiding the rider to record:
- Warm-ups, exercises, and flatwork focus
- Pole work and jumping patterns
- Breakthroughs, challenges, and areas for continued development
- Conditioning and fitness tracking over time
- Rider position, feel, and communication goals
In addition to daily ride pages, the book includes weekly planning templates, monthly progress evaluations, quick schooling plans for busy days, and a reference section of proven training exercises. A rider body awareness scan and troubleshooting guide are also included to support calm, effective communication in the saddle.
Clear, practical, and trainer-approved, Schooling Sessions is designed for lesson riders, adult amateurs, training programs, pony club graduates, competitive riders, returning riders, and anyone who wants to ride with more intention and measurable improvement.
Use it on your own, with your coach, or as part of your horse's ongoing training plan. Small details, recorded consistently, reveal real progress.
