Teach your horse to drive—at your own pace.

Follow a proven, step-by-step curriculum to build the foundation for a confident, reliable driving horse.

The self-study version of DRIVING 101 gives you access to the exact same training program as the signature course—without the live coaching calls or community access. Work through the lessons on your own schedule, at your horse’s pace, and move as quickly or as gradually as you like.

Why driving?

Driving opens up a whole new way to enjoy your horse: share the experience with friends and family, explore the countryside in comfort, or simply savour the connection you create through groundwork.

Even if you never plan to hitch to a cart, ground driving is phenomenal cross-training for any horse. It builds responsiveness to aids, improves posture and movement, and develops confidence in a wide range of environments.

From Zero to Ground Driving

This online, self-paced course is designed for horse owners and riders who want to safely and systematically start their horses into driving.

Inside, I’ll personally walk you step-by-step through the exact process I use to create well-rounded, reliable driving horses. You’ll learn the essential groundwork exercises, how to set your horse up for success, and the small details that make training smooth, safe, and enjoyable for both of you.

Here’s what's waiting for you inside:

  • A complete training roadmap broken into five progressive modules

  • 35+ video lessons with clear, step-by-step instruction

  • My top recommendations for tack and equipment to make training easier and safer

  • Engaging groundwork activities to build communication, connection, and confidence

  • Lifetime access to the course and all future updates

Plus bonus resources, including:

  • What Makes a Good Driving Horse?

  • Recognizing Healthy Posture and Movement
