I considered selling my horse because she was so difficult for me – but now I have a new start. In just a few days, I saw an instant improvement with the Training Scale exercises. I am so grateful to you. Thank you so much!

I couldn’t even describe what my horse was doing. I would say she’s on the muscle but she’s behind my leg.
Now, I’m able to identify and solve the problem. We got cantering around and made tremendous progress. I’m not frustrated like I was. Thank you.

I haven’t had a trainer in a couple years. But I’m really excited because we’re finally making some real progress. I forgot how important it was to have a plan when you’re going out to ride. I’ve always done better with a plan so it’s been really wonderful.

In fact, before I learned the fundamentals of training horses there were far too many times when schooling sessions ended with both me and my horse in a sweaty frustrated emotional mess.

Looking back, I’m surprised that I got any results at all because I didn’t actually know what I was aiming for. I realized that if I was to get better, I needed a system that created consistent training at home.

My trainer always has a plan. Understanding the Training Scale has enabled me to have a clearer understanding of her plan and feel more involved in the process and connected to my horse.

This course turned the Training Scale into something real for me and it changed my riding in a big way.
I can think about as I ride. It helps me improve my riding and gives me confidence.

I sent in my videos each week to office hours. I got so much out of you watching and then explaining what I was doing . During the few months of the masterclass I learned more than in years of trying to learn on my own. Every day my horse got better. I feel encouraged to keep going up the levels. I feel like I have a chance to try new things.
Training Scale Masterclass Graduate

I have seen a huge amount of progress in my horse in a short period of time. The groundwork exercises have made our relationship 100x better and I am becoming a more effective rider. I initially was a little hesitant due to the price but it is well worth the money.
Training Scale Masterclass Graduate

It gives me something to think about when we get mixed up in our conversation. I can think back to the Training Scale and come up with an exercise to practice. I’ve never had anybody that really went through the Training Scale with me. This has been enlightening!
Training Scale Masterclass Graduate

I loved it! I’m just a beginner and I really wanted to see the big picture. I may have only gotten to the second step, but it was very important that I stayed on rhythm and that was very eye-opening. I love that I have lifetime access, so I can go back and work on the other levels as my goals shift. It’s a great program.
Training Scale Masterclass Graduate

It made me appreciate dressage more. There is a beauty and logic to the levels and the course deepened on my understanding of what is best for my horse. I now have purpose for every ride and I don’t feel confused about what to work on in the moment.

Imagine “training” with Amelia for 12 weeks! What would you accomplish?!
We move forward at a steady pace with new material released on a weekly basis. We will start at the bottom of the Training Scale and work our way to the top. Each week you get a LIVE theory lecture, new exercises, and the ability to submit your riding video for feedback in LIVE office hours (and yes- they will be recorded!). In our private Facebook Group, you’ll be able to ask questions daily, share your videos for feedback, and meet other riders just like YOU! After this intensive, you will understand the Training Scale and apply it to your riding.
And can ask written questions at any time via the teaching platform for years to come.
Submit a 3-5 minute video of your riding for Amelia to review
Available on Zoom
Honestly, this might be better than a lesson! You get to actually see what you’re doing wrong. Plus you get the recording and can replay it over and over!
The favorite feature among students.
Unable to submit a video? This safe and inviting environment allows you to get feedback on you riding, and learn from other students’ videos. It does not need to be ‘perfect’ and there are no dumb questions. Plus if you don’t submit a video, you can learn a great deal by watching others. It’s exciting to celebrate progress with the other students, it’s a magical experience.

Amelia is just a 10 star teacher. Videos are professional, the horses are correct and beautiful and she is a beautiful rider to watch. Highly recommended.

I will continue to work on the training scale every ride! My horses feel so much better and I am more confident to have some structure on what to work on especially when things start going wrong! I am so grateful you are an exceptional teacher ... we are truly blessed to have access to your knowledge !!!
Masterclass Student
She is devoted to the education of her students and their horses. Her ability to communicate theory and practical applications is the best I have ever encountered in my 40 years of learning and practicing dressage. I recommend Amelia to all levels of dressage enthusiasts.

Yes! The Training Scale works on every single horse. No matter the breed, age, or discipline you ride, the training scale helps your horse learn a more correct posture to carry themselves in to do the job that is asked of them.
The purpose of every single dressage test is based on the Training Scale. The tests increase in difficulty based on principles from the Training Scale. Every test sheet states the purpose, which always references the Training Scale. Training Level focuses on the first three levels and as you progress up the levels the purpose of each test incorporates more elements. Use the Training Scale to plan your daily ride, and to understand the expected development of your horse year to year.
You will have lifetime access to the material! While the LIVE Facebook group and the guided live feedback in office hours is only during the course period (through October 2025), you will always have access to the material to keep working away at it!
No, this program and the training scale is for all horses. Please note that some younger or older horses might have to focus more on the lower half of the Training Scale during this stage in their development.
All the time! The program is set up so you can work with your horse only a couple days a week or in a full training program. Consistency is key but even a few rides a week can show you a difference in a short period of time.
You should still join! This course is chalk full of valuable information that you have LIFETIME access to! So you can go through it whenever you want -and at whatever pace you want. Plus I won’t be offering the course until next year!
Yes! You get lifetime access to ask me questions via my teaching platform. And during the course period (through to October 19th 2025) you also get office hours for review of your riding video and a private Facebook group where you can ask my team and I questions at any time.
No. You don’t need to be on Facebook. You can access all of the educational content to your desktop or phone. If you have a question or want to join the community we recommend joining Facebook! This will allow you to ask questions, share videos, successes, and more! If you don’t have Facebook, I would suggest joining just for this course.
There is a special form you get access to upon joining the program where you submit your videos.
Yes, but how much depends on when you last participated in this masterclass.
Every time I host a new cohort of the Training Scale Masterclass, I go through the material and refresh some the videos, lectures etc, so it it is always at least a LITTLE bit different. And if you participated in a cohort prior to 2023, it is VERY different because I re-produced all the videos and course content that year.
The biggest benefit of taking this masterclass again is the weekly video review sessions. In fact, about 25% of enrollment are riders participating for a second or third time.
As a student from a previous cohort, you do get a significant discount to enroll in this masterclass, check your emails or reach out to support@migrate.amelianewcombdressage.com to get the details
Yes and No. The exercise videos are all pre-recorded. But the Lectures and Office Hours are run LIVE for you to ask questions in real time. Plus, those LIVE sessions are recorded for you to watch again later.
That’s ok! I have a lot of online students that weren’t comfortable with technology or who had never uploaded a video before starting my program who are now participating fully. I’ve got a great support team and lot’s of ‘how to’ processes to help you make the most out of the course. I won’t let technology hold you back from making progress in your riding!
