Coaching With Kerry
~ Private Sessions
You. Your Horse. Your Relationship. Your Question.
Sometimes you don't need another training method.​
You need another perspective.
What This Is
Coaching With Kerry offers private, personalized access to Kerry M. Thomas for horse owners, riders, trainers, and professionals looking for help understanding a particular horse, working through a challenge, improving communication, optimizing performance, or simply discovering what might be happening between the ears.
​
All breeds. All disciplines. All levels.
​
Whether you are a young rider struggling through a difficult moment or an elite professional searching for the small detail standing between good and exceptional, the starting point is the same:
Who is this horse, what is the horse experiencing, and how can we better support the partnership?
​
There is no prescribed lesson plan or training method.
Bring the horse. Bring the question.
We'll begin there.
PRIVATE VIDEO ANALYSIS
Sometimes another set of eyes can change everything.
​
Submit video of your horse, riding, training, competition, warm-up, groundwork, or a specific situation you would like Kerry to evaluate.
​
Kerry will study the submitted footage through the lens of Herd Dynamics™, Sensory Soundness™, psychosensory processing, environmental influence, horse-human communication, and the individual horse's strengths and vulnerabilities.
​
Your video analysis is followed by a private Zoom consultation where Kerry walks you through what he is seeing, answers your questions, and offers practical observations and recommendations for moving forward.
​
This is ideal for a specific question, challenge, performance issue, training concern, or simply when you would like Kerry's perspective on your horse and relationship.
​
Private Video Analysis — $295 USD
Includes submitted video review and approximately 60 minutes of private consultation with Kerry.
PRIVATE FIELD SESSION
Let Kerry meet you where the experience is happening.
A Private Field Session brings Coaching With Kerry directly into your horse's working environment.
​
Kerry can observe you and your horse during a training session, lesson, groundwork, schooling exercise, competition preparation, warm-up, or other real-world situations.
Your existing trainer or riding coach is welcome to participate.
​
Where useful, portions of the session may be filmed for immediate playback, allowing Kerry to stop, review, discuss, and help you recognize what may be happening within the horse-human relationship in real time.
​
This isn't about critiquing your riding or replacing your trainer.
It is about adding another perspective to the conversation: helping connect what is happening physically with what may be happening psychologically, behaviorally, emotionally, and environmentally.
​
Private Field Session — Starting at $450 USD
Approximately 90 minutes of private observation, evaluation and coaching with Kerry.
​
Travel, admission, or location-related expenses are additional when applicable.
Competition attendance, extended observation, or sessions requiring a greater time commitment are available by custom quote.
A Focused Experience. A Valuable Next Step.
Sometimes the greatest progress begins when someone helps us see what we have been looking at differently.
​
Coaching With Kerry gives you the opportunity to bring your horse, your relationship, and the question that matters most to you directly to Kerry for his individual observation, interpretation, and guidance.
​
A single session can reveal details that are easy to overlook from the saddle. It can help identify where communication is becoming unclear, where environmental or sensory demands may be influencing behavior or performance, where strengths can be better supported, and where a seemingly complicated problem may have a surprisingly achievable next step.
For some, that means working through a challenge.
​
For others, it means fine-tuning performance, strengthening communication, gaining another perspective on training, or simply understanding their horse more completely.
You don't need to know exactly what the problem is.
​
Sometimes knowing that something could be better is enough reason to look more closely.
Whether through video or in person, this is a focused opportunity to put Kerry's experience and unique perspective to work on your individual horse and your individual situation, and leave with greater understanding, practical direction, and a clearer sense of where to go next.
​
Because sometimes one of the most valuable things we can do for a horse is learn to see more clearly what the horse has been showing us all along.
