Trying something new for 2026?

I have just got back from a very wet walk in the woods with our little podenco pup who turned 1 last week! She's still crazy but now at least conked out having a nap after lots of tearing about.

If you're an equestrian coach, this time of year is challenging weather wise and energy wise. If you're one of our disco coaches, you might love this time of year as there is Halloween fun courtesy of our Thriller routine to supercharge October coaching. Then you can roll on to our festive special (choreographed to Kelly Clarkson's "You For Christmas") to keep you, your riders and horses/ponies entertained, having fun and smiling.

If you think running some musical dressage training for your clients might be good next year, now is a good time to get in touch with me at Disco Dressage as I'm running an offer until the end of the year. To be a fully musically licensed disco coach in your region (we can agree what territory you cover) costs just £12.95/month. However, at the moment if you pay for 10 months of next year I will give you 2 for free. Happy Christmas!

We have have coaches in Surrey, Leicestershire, West Wales, East Scotland, Durham, South Nottinghamshire and Kent - although to be honest in Kent, someone could definitely take the region on for me as I'm busy creating our content and working on the business day to day.

In other news, this came in the post the other day....

Thank you to Sarah Simpson who I trained with. Jillie Rogers for encouraging me to get on with it in the first place and Lizzie Heron from The Equestrian Leadership Consultancy who helped me shape my thoughts into a presentation which was well received. I am delighted to have passed as fitting revision in took some organisation and resilience. I thought about cancelling the exam a couple of times but glad I didn't - it was actually fun when it came around.

2026 is planned to be a year of stability and gentle growth. I would love to have 10+ UK coaches on our team and I am also going to turn my attention to other countries once we have reached that milestone. Am starting to plan themes for next year. So far, Club Tropicana and Madonna are stimulating my creative juices....but any other ideas welcome!
