Scared to jump your horse?
Freezing at the mounting
block?
Panicking at shows?
You’re
not alone — so many riders (especially women) quietly struggle with fear in the
saddle.
Maybe you’ve had a fall. Maybe your horse spooked. Or maybe it’s just been building slowly — and now you’re riding with more tension than trust.
I help hunter/jumper riders who’ve lost confidence — whether it’s in the show ring, on the flat, or just mounting up. If you’re tired of fighting fear every time you tack up, I’ll show you how to calm your nervous system, rebuild self-trust, and finally enjoy riding again.
You don’t need more willpower. You need real tools that work — on the ground and in the saddle.
When fear has stopped your dreams, courage pennies can fill you back up with courage....

Hey There!
I’m Elise Hittinger—Fear Slayer, Confidence Creator, and your go-to Courage Coach.
I help riders overcome anxiety and rediscover their joy—because I’ve lived through the fear myself.
After surviving a life-threatening fall, I found my way back to the saddle—and I’m here to help you do the same.

When you’re ready, I’m here.
If you’ve ever felt alone in your fear, you’re not.
I created a support group just for riders like us—because no one should have to navigate this journey alone.
After my accident, I developed a process that helped me rebuild my courage and love riding again. It didn’t happen overnight—but the reward was worth every step.
Now I help other riders do the same. And I’d love for you to join us.
