🐴 Your First 7 Days in the Equestrian Heroes App

Free resources, coaching insights, and a horse-first community where your journey matters.

Every rider’s journey is different but your time and energy matter.
This 7-day guide is here to help you find your way inside the app and enjoy what’s here, at your own pace.

Whether you’ve just joined or are still deciding if it’s right for you, here’s what your first week could look like inside the app.

📲 Day 1: Download the App + Settle In

When you first open the app, you’ll see a welcome screen inviting you to join the free Heroes Riding Club. Tap that, and you’ll unlock access to all the good stuff: the Lounge, the Library, and a collection of rider resources and guides.

There’s also a short onboarding sequence to show you around so take a moment to swipe through.

🏇 Tip: If prompted, make sure to opt into push notifications so I can send you rider rewards, new resources, and seasonal challenges as they go live.

Once you land on the Home Screen, you’ll see a few friendly ways to navigate—along with a Start Here screen that gently explains what’s inside and where you might like to begin.

The three main areas to explore are:

• The Lounge – our community space for connection and conversation

• The Library – free coaching tools and inspiration

• Rider Resources & Guides – practical downloads to support your schooling sessions

No pressure. Just tap around and follow what interests you.

🧭 Day 2: Choose Your Next Challenge

If you're unsure where to start, you're not alone.

That’s why I created a short quiz to help you discover your rider style and point you toward the most helpful resources for where you are right now.

It’s quick, reflective, and designed to support—not judge.

🐴 Day 3: Celebrate Your Horse

Inside the Lounge, you’ll find a space called Celebrate Your Horse.

Upload a photo, tell us what makes your horse special, and I’ll add them to our virtual Wall of Fame in the Clubroom.

It’s one of my favourite parts of the app a space where we recognise the partnership at the heart of everything.

📚 Day 4: Explore the Library

Now’s a great time to dip into the Library and see what’s available.

You’ll find free guides and tools designed to help you build confidence, reconnect with your goals, and enjoy your time in the saddle. Here are a few rider favourites:

• Schooling to Make a Difference – perfect for designing meaningful sessions

• Stressless Dressage – a calm companion before your next test

• The Dream Gap – gentle support when your confidence wobbles

You don’t need to read everything. Just start with what feels right for you.

💬 Day 5: Share Something in the Lounge

Feeling a little more at home?

You might like to say hello in the Lounge. You could post a photo, share what you’re looking forward to with your horse this week, or respond to one of the Tea Break prompts we’ve added to help riders ease in.

No pressure to post, reading and reacting is just as welcome.

🏆 Day 6: Discover What’s Next

By now, you’ll probably notice there are a couple of rider journeys tucked inside the app. These are here when you feel ready for something more structured or simply want a new routine.

• Achieve Dressage is our badge-based programme to help you track your progress from Intro to Advanced. It’s supportive, motivating, and designed to feel good.

• Equi-Impulse offers 32 gentle daily prompts to help you reconnect with your feel, flow, and intuition in the saddle.

Both are self-paced. No pressure, just tools to support you.

🔄 Day 7: Keep Coming Back When You Need It

This isn’t an app that demands your attention every day. It’s a space that’s here when you need it—whether that’s a reset, a resource, or just a reminder of why you love to ride.

Every time you log in, you’ll find something new, whether it’s a seasonal challenge, a fresh guide, or a post that makes you feel seen.
