If you currently or will be working with the Equiband in the future, then you will need a fitness program to support your horse's progress safely. Check out the Equi-Course Bootcamp for hands on instructions. Or do you struggle more with your mental game? Then the From Falling to Flying Playlist might be for you!
I have been using the Equiband system for horses for about 3 years now so I am creating all the tools that I WISH I HAD WHEN I GOT STARTED!
This playlist covers 10 essential horse riding improvement tests designed to refine your balance, position, aids, and communication with your horse.
"Thank you for this video! I have literally had my equiband for a year and I was so worried about it being too tight for my PSSM mare that I barely tightened it after trying the 50% and being like "No way this is right!!!" because it was SO unbelievably tight. Then I was so overwhelmed about if I was doing too much or too little that I gave up on it. I'm going to try again now! Thank you!"
"Thank you for doing a fair review! I've literally been trying to find the right tool to help me balance the way one of horses uses his body & the way described how your horse used his body sounds JUST like my boy! He definitely is one who needs to have it be “his idea” on how to use his body better 😂 Thank you once again! I'm a new subscriber but LOVING your honesty in your vlogs! Cant wait to watch more 🙂👍"
"Hi Alyssa, what an informative, well- structured video. I only recently got interested in the Equiband when I heard that a trainer/vet who comes to our barn to rehabilitate horses uses it. To be precise, she helped develop the Equiband...Using your training and heeding your warning: do not overdo!...Best regards and thank you for all your time and effort."
Fuego (aka Delly) is an upper level eventing horse currently competing at Intermediate with dreams of going Advanced. The brand is a nod to the longest standing partnership Alyssa has ever had with a horse. Not all horses are able to compete at the highest level, and this horse is truly talented.

Let's Hashtag It (aka Gia) was bred by Gloria Schaefer with help from W2 Holsteiners. Alyssa trained and raised Gia as her second homebred, and Gia just recently completed her first eventing competition. She will be continuing to develop her skills at novice in spring 2024 season.

Miracle Hashtag (aka Gemini) was bred by Gloria Schaefer with help from W2 Holsteiners. Alyssa trained and raised Gemini as her third homebred, but has yet to compete at her first show. Her name, Miracle, was for the fact that she survived a traumatic head injury (at only 3 months old) despite veterinary condemnation!
At the ripe old age of 18 Alyssa was faced with a decision to make, "To be or not to be a horse rider..."
Now for a passionate equestrian this answer should be a no brainer BUT...
When faced with this decision it also meant having to pay for ALL of her personal and horse expenses ALONE!
For grown adults this can be a challenge, but for a recent high school graduate headed into her freshman year of college...this seemed IMPOSSIBLE!
But she had a decision to make, and when the time came, it was a no brainer...YES!
Without any idea how she would accomplish this goal, Alyssa committed her life to the pursuit of a lifelong dream! (& Hasn't looked back since 🤠 )
Your horse never getting to use the Equiband is like Harry Potter never getting to go to Hogwarts...
