Please read the brief overview from Jamie Evan, saddle fitting and equestrian training professional, and below and TAP HERE FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION of each type of session being offered. Please note that although each session has a general outline, we can cater each session to fit your individual needs.
30-90 Min ($150-$300/session)
With literally thousands of professional horse and saddle fittings, done both in person and virtually, I have become proficient at conducting a broad range of consultation and training services via Zoom video conferences.
All that's needed is a willing human partner and their horse(s), and together we can successfully conduct full conformation and saddle fitting analysis of your horse, identify your horse's best natural gait and way of moving, mounted live gait training sessions (single or ongoing), or face to face consultations for a wide range of horse and saddle related topics we can work through together.
When conducting in-person sessions, those I'm working with ride their horse, while I am on the ground observing and guiding. So, with such modern technology at our fingertips, these sessions are not much at all different than in-person ones. It's pretty amazing, really!
How it Works:
When you book your appointment, Jamie will reach out within 24 hours and we will confirm your preferred date/time. I'll send a short questionnaire so I can assess your specific needs and expectations. Once payment is received, your booking is confirmed, and you will receive an email with your Zoom meeting confirmation date/time, along with some tips/instructions. I may ask for some pictures and/or video, if needed, prior to our session. Each session is different, and will be catered to your and your horse's unique individual needs.
Shortly before your scheduled time, you will receive an email with a link and passcode to join the video conference, where I'll be waiting to get you all set up and ready to go to get started!
A valuable bonus of training via Zoom is at the conclusion of each session you will receive a link to a copy of your session. * This will allow you to reference back the entire Zoom session to review and refresh. Watching back is exceptionally helpful to you, as it allows you to see your horse in movement while hearing the real-time assessments and our interactions to go along with this. If we end up working together over a series of sessions, it's really fun and rewarding to be able to go back and review the progress you're making, or revisit and refresh yourself on something we've already covered.
*Recording provided pending technical cooperation from Zoom--unfortunately, once in a great while a session shows as recording but does not. In the event this may happen, Jamie will email a full, detailed summary of your session immediately after.
All live mounted sessions with horses will require a helper to record. Wireless ear pieces make things easier for us to communicate while you have your hands full too!
I've found this format to be an easy, efficient, and effective way for me to work with clients and their horses. It's a very user-friendly platform, if you haven't used it before, but I can help walk through any pre-session technology concerns, if needed!
Please note, if time allows, we may decide we would benefit from spending a little more time in the moment, and may negotiate extending your session at that time. It's always a team effort to form our perfect trifecta. You may opt to book another session, and continue your lessons with Jamie as an ongoing trainer.
