Who we are…
Jane Pike
With a background in behavioural science, motor repatterning, and movement education, Jane has worked with both competitive and recreational horse riders all over the world, inspiring them to new levels of confidence, connection and performance.
She has a thriving, global membership program, JoyRide, is a sought after speaker and clinician internationally and her Confident Rider Podcast has amassed over half a million downloads.
Her methods combines mindset, movement and holistic biomechanics with a specific focus on nervous system awareness and understanding.
Jane’s approach to biomechanics allows the rider to gain an understanding of the balance lines of both the horse and rider, so they can find ways of moving together that are harmonious and
mutually beneficial.
This is based on movement principles that govern both the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous system to allow for optimal function and experience for horse and human.
Rupert Isaacson
Rupert runs the Horse Boy Foundation which offers services to autism families, and helps direct several satellite centers offering similar services in North America and Europe.
In partnership with Iliane Lorenz he also teaches Horse Boy Method, Movement Method (a homeschool technique aimed at autism, ADD and ADHD families among others), and other kinetic learning techniques, along with Helios Harmony, a way of introducing riders to the higher levels of equitation and classical in a clear and joyful way.
Rupert works closely with the Valenca Family in Portugal and studies with Christian Bachinger of the Spanish Riding School of Vienna.
