We’re not here to tell you riders need workouts.

We’re here to finally make your workout plan feel like it’s made for you as a rider. 

Our way

You’re not just looking for a training app

You're looking for someone who gets it

Someone who understands how riding feels, how hard it is to balance time at the stables , work, and life —and who can create training that truly connects to your goals in the saddle.

I’m not the kind of coach who throws out one-size-fits-all plans and calls it done.

I want to know how you feel when you ride, what you're working on, and what kind of training fits your life.

Here’s the truth: our sport is where Formula 1 was in the '90s—just starting to see the value of performance coaching, but still missing an approach that’s actually made for riders.

That’s why I do this—to make sure your workouts feel connected to your seat, your body, and your goals.

Because every rider is different. And your training should be too.

Let us tell you a story.

In June 2024, we met two riders —both wanted to sit more upright and ride in better balance between jumps.

One had a rounded lower back and posteriorly tilted hips. The other was leaning forward in a light seat, with an over-arched back and anteriorly tilted hips.

Same goal, opposite problems.

If we had told them both to “just sit more upright,” it wouldn’t have worked.

That’s why we don’t do one-size-fits-all plans.

Instead, we created individualized workouts based on how each rider felt in the saddle—targeting their unique movement patterns with completely different exercises.

The result? Noticeable improvements in balance and position—in under two weeks.

They weren’t just looking for workouts.
They were looking for a solution to ride better.

All they had to do was tell us how riding felt. We took care of the rest.

From rider to performance coach

I’ve been riding since I was five—ever since I saw ponies at the local marketplace.

From that moment, I knew: this was it. I wanted to be a rider. Nothing else.

But the dream didn’t unfold the way I imagined.
After two serious knee injuries during my junior years, I had to shift focus.

I turned to sports physiotherapy and performance coaching, built my first business, and slowly found my way back to the sport I’ve always loved.

The setback that redefined my path

In 2020, I committed to a full comeback.

I bought a promising 3-year-old mare and poured everything I had into the journey.

But life had other plans. In April 2022, I completely tore my right ACL—an injury that ended my dream of returning to the saddle as a competitive rider.

For good.

What felt like the end turned out to be a new beginning.

With more time in my hands, I discovered a deeper purpose: helping riders through EQUESTRAIN.

I realized this is how I want to be part of the sport—not as a top-level rider, but as a performance coach who truly understands what it feels like to always want to be better as a rider.

Bridging the Gap for Riders

My mission is simple: to support dedicated riders who want to keep improving.

That’s why we created a platform that bridges the gap between generic, one-size-fits-all fitness plans and expensive one-on-one coaching.

If you’re putting time and effort into your training, you deserve an approach that’s tailored to you—and your goals as a rider.

Because as riders, we’re all different.

So why should we settle for the same generic workout plans?

Don’t just take our word for it

Here’s what real riders are saying.

“It's really nice to train with Laura. The workouts always bring a fresh and good feeling to both body & mind. Maintaining my posture and seat while riding feels easier for several days after workouts. The sessions have focused a lot on body control and mobility exercises, not only to support riding but also to alleviate the stiffness caused by riding.”

Ville Vaurio, professional dressage rider

“Equestrain helps me to be the best athlete I can be in so many ways! Juggling a busy life between travelling, university and dressage, Equestrain provides meaningful workouts that I can always make time for. It is such a relief to have a personal trainer that finally understands exactly what I need as an equestrian athlete”

Kate Kyros, world no 6 FEI young dressage rider

“I love how personal everything is! 🤩 Really feels like this plan is actually ‘only’ for me and my needs and how easy it is to last minute adjust it to my riding/personal schedule, the black layout looks a-ma-zing as well.”

Sam Maefalt

“Already made a new plan - cause my old one just finished and the fact that you can easily add multiple workouts and choose how much of each you want is just 10/10🤤 and don’t get me started on how easily I planned my week… one drag. It’s just so easy to use, I think that’s the biggest difference.”

Thea Beck

“Wow, the new app is a real game changer. It looks fantastic and is so easy to command. I absolutely LOVE the new calendars and the features for cardio and mobility etc!!! It makes planning so much easier and working out much more fun.”

Louisa Valkyser

“Wow guys! It’s a huge difference with my lower legs. I have just done yesterday 14min mobility Pilates workout for a deeper seat. Today I felt more stability in the saddle and my lower legs don’t fully swing around. 🤩🙌🏻 THANK YOU Laura! 🥰🫶🏻”

Anna Krone

“I just did the first gym workout, it was soo good!! Love that I can put in the reps/weights and the structure of the whole workout with the different topics is perfect 😍💪🏼 amazing job to the whole team”

Miriam Ene

“Morning after my first gym workout feelings: My body feels like I worked out yesterday (love it 🤩) but it still feels soft, not too sore anywhere.”

Venla Laivo

“Gym workout was very easy to follow and I liked that you have clear instructions and videos etc. but can still do the workout at your own pace. I also love the tracking and notes options 🤩 All in all it was very easy to follow and understand what to do.”

Nicole Tonzanu

“It’s amazing!!! It’s soo personal and I love that there is also a cardio and gym option!! + it gives such a cool vibe😍😍”

Nena van der Ven

“I already love love love that i could choose all the options gym cardio mobility and home wo, it gives me really nice mix of workouts for 5 days a week when there is couple of longer and couple of much shorter workouts so its very doable for me, especially when i dont have to do just one type of thing 🙏🏻❤️”

Wenla Hänninen

“I‘m very happy and thankful to work with Equestrain from now on! I have been training in the gym on my own for quite a while now, but I still noticed a big difference since I have used the workouts from the app as they really focus on improving my role as an equestrian athlete.”

Jana Lang

“My position in the saddle has improved so much in such a short time and having this in depth approach has helped me to understand why & how to improve my seat and riding.”

Carolina Villanueva Suarez

“Scuderia 1918 had the opportunity to work with Laura for the first time during the Talent Team Campus. Over three weeks, she exceeded our expectations by caring for the physical and mental well-being of the three young riders.”

Marta Tagliaferri, Scuderia 1918 CEO

“I have way more body control. It has improved in such a short time that it is amazing actually. I usually workout four or five times a week and I’ve noticed my hips being less stiff and my seat being straighter.”

Emilie Conter

“Systematic training has influenced my riding through improved body control and function. Additionally, it has positively helped structure my days. I want to get the maximum out of myself.”
