About #WeRideTogether
Founded in 2021, #WeRideTogether started as an awareness campaign and educational website designed to empower, inform and unite the equestrian community around sexual misconduct prevention and create healthy training environments for all sports. Showcasing powerful first-person interviews from sexual abuse survivors, #WeRideTogether promotes transparent dialogue around sexual misconduct, raises awareness for the many forms grooming and abuse can take, and helps diminish the stigma and fear of coming forward by giving survivors a safe platform to share their voices. The organization has since grown into a 501c3 and is creating a blueprint to help make all sports safer for youth, amateur, and professional athletes. #WeRideTogether is proud to offer comprehensive, free safeguarding education creation, abuse prevention resources, and safeguarding policy creation and consulting to athletic organizations, from grassroots clubs to elite international federations like the FEI.

Conditioning plans can vary from 12 weeks down to four weeks. The most important thing is to remember that the plan should fit the horse and rider, not vice versa. There are general templates but all schedules will look different and should be tailored to you and your horse’s specific needs.
Fear is a word we’ve all experienced and one that can leave the best of us feeling a bit belittled and bewildered. It’s also one of the most misunderstood of all emotions.
