Ros D Equine Mindset Coach

Ros D Equine Mindset Coach Equine Mindset Coach helping riders feel confident and calm in the saddle. Remote & in-person support across the South West. Younger riders are also welcome!

I’m Ros, a BHS Level 3 Complete Coach and British Dressage List 5 Judge, with over 30 years’ experience in the horse world. I specialise in mindset coaching for riders who want to enjoy their horses with confidence and clarity — without pressure, judgement, or feeling they should be coping better on their own. I work primarily with riders over 40, supporting confidence, focus, and enjoyment both in and out of the saddle. Based in the South West, I work with riders across Bath & North East Somerset, Wiltshire, and South Gloucestershire, as well as remotely.

Ros Learns Technology: Episode 1
I completed my first Confidence Challenge Facebook Live—and I’m still here!

My home Wi-Fi threatened to lose the signal twice, which was exactly what my nerves needed… but I carried on.

Today’s reminder: confidence doesn’t always look calm and polished. Sometimes it looks like feeling nervous, watching the Wi-Fi wobble and continuing anyway.

One down. Two to go!

Going Live scares me.

There. I’ve said it.

I’m Generation X. I grew up without mobile phones, social media or cameras permanently pointing at us. Photographs required film, a trip to get them developed and several days before you discovered that someone had blinked.

Honestly, I’m rather grateful there isn’t an online archive of my teenage years!

Put me beside a horse and I know where I am. Ask me to teach, coach or judge and I’m confident in my knowledge and experience.

Put me in front of a camera and ask me to press “Go Live”? That is a very different matter.

I worry about embarrassing myself. I worry about pressing the wrong thing. I worry that I don’t understand the technology—and that, by not understanding it, I may be missing opportunities that could help my business and the riders I want to support.

But here’s the interesting part…

This is exactly the sort of challenge I help riders with.

You don’t become confident and then do the frightening thing. Very often, you do the frightening thing—carefully, imperfectly and with your heart beating rather too enthusiastically—and confidence begins to grow afterwards.

So today I’m stepping outside my own comfort zone and practising what I teach.

I may stumble over my words. I may press the wrong button. But I’m turning up and giving it a go.

What would you try if you stopped waiting to feel completely confident first?
