What makes an ISRB Certified Coach different?

ISRB Certified Coaches are trained in evidence-based rider biomechanics and have passed practical assessments to ensure they teach with clarity, precision, and a focus on long-term rider development. They use a proven method to improve balance, posture, and communication between horse and rider.

What levels of certification do coaches have?

Our coaches progress through multiple certification levels, starting with Level 1 and moving up through advanced teaching tiers. Each level builds on specific rider biomechanics skills, ensuring you receive instruction suited to your goals and experience.

Can beginners work with an ISRB Certified Coach?

Absolutely! Our certified coaches are skilled at working with all levels, from first-time riders to competitive athletes. They tailor instruction to match your experience and help you build a strong foundation from the start.

How do I find a coach near me?

Use our Find a Coach directory (below) to search by location, name, or certification level. Many of our coaches also offer virtual lessons if there’s no one local to you.

Do certified coaches specialize in certain disciplines?

Yes! While all coaches are trained in rider biomechanics, many have backgrounds in dressage, eventing, hunter/jumper, western, and more. We have even helped riders in the disciplines of barrel racing, vaulting, reining, cutting & much more! All disciplines can benefit from learning rider biomechanics.

You can view their bios (coming soon) in the directory to find the right fit for your discipline and goals. We do plan on adding a jumping biomechanics certification for those who wish to add that onto their experience & credentials.

Can I become certified myself?

Yes! If you're an instructor or passionate rider interested in becoming an ISRB Certified Coach, visit our Certification Pathway page to learn how to get started.
