Why members
love Move 2 Ride
Horse riding is hard work.
Do you struggle with any of the following?
• Lower or upper back pain
• Tight or stiff hips
• Neck pain
• Muscle fatigue or discomfort during or after your rides
Do you find it difficult to maintain balance and stability in the saddle?
Do you wish you could develop a more secure, confident seat?
Our approach focuses on training both the rider and the horse.
Whether you’re a seasoned rider or new to the saddle, our goal is to help you ride with greater comfort, confidence, and body awareness. You’re not alone in wanting to become a better rider—while feeling unsure where to begin.
Perhaps you feel stuck in a training rut with your horse, frustrated by a lack of progress in your schooling or competition results, and unable to move beyond this plateau.
If so, it’s time to adopt a biomechanical approach to training. Helping your horse move more comfortably, perform more effectively, and reducing the risk of injury.
Our Coaches
Get To Know Us
Matthias Agneessens
Move 2 Ride Founder
Manual Therapist & Biomechanics Coach
Meet Matthias. As a manual therapist, specialised in biomechanics, he has been fine-tuning the two-and-four legged in the equine world, and coaching riders to move in harmony with their horses. From here founding Move 2 Ride was a natural progression, bringing the two elements together onto one educational platform. His passion for the movement of the body, or biomechanics in short, started in his teens. It was then when he decided to embark on a long road, over six years, of studies, including CranioSacral and manual therapy, as well as deep tissue and myofascial release techniques, among others. Although it started with humans, Matthias always felt a connection to horses and therefore studied the same techniques in the equine field, and backed those up with studies in equine sciences. Over the last two decades he has solved the riddles of faulty biomechanics ridding thousands of humans and equines effectively of pain, rehabbing both to move freely again. Matthias holds a Permitted Equine Therapists (PET) license with the FEI, which allows him to treat horses at national, as well as international competitions. Thanks to his dedication, you can usually find him at one of his two bases in Belgium and Andalusia doing his hands on magic or coaching, That, if he’s not jetting around the world casting his experienced eye on a human, or a horse, pinpointing the failures in movement and swiftly correcting them.
Inge Vandesande
Move 2 Ride Coach
Passionate and caring trainer for horse & rider
Meet Inge Our coach par excellence, teaching is firmly engrained in her DNA. You can mostly find her at home in Belgium, but she can also be spotted giving clinics abroad. Inge’s love for horses started early on in her childhood. Whilst she enjoys riding herself, she quickly realised that her calling was to share her experience and knowledge, including biomechanics of horses and riders, with others. So what better than to embark on a coaching career? And that’s exactly what she’s been doing for no less than three decades now, bringing out the best in show jumping and dressage riders alike. At the same time she has specialised in preparing the horses themselves for their dressage and jumping careers. During her coaching adventure Inge has teamed up with the likes of Nelson Pessoa, An Vanstappen and Bertrand Liegard.

Did you know ?
The number one reason that horses get injured is.....
They simply don’t yet have the strength to move with ease in the way we ask.
If you want to protect your horse from future injury and create true, lasting progress, it starts with a smarter approach to training…
✔ Develop your horse’s posture to support correct, efficient movement
✔ Progressively build deep core strength & balance, going far beyond just the topline
✔ Strengthen your own body and awareness, so you can ride as a true partner, not just a passenger

Transform Your Ride Today
Are you a motivated rider who is frustrated with not making progress with your horse? And you can’t work out what’s holding you back….
Are you ready to start training off your horse?
-
Are you a rider yearning to experience more harmony with your horse?
-
Are you ready to put in some training off your horse?
-
Do you want to learn how to condition your horse to move correctly and with ease?
-
Do you want pain free rides?
-
Do you secretly wish training was less of an effort but more fun again?
-
Are you tired of feeling you have to force your horse to do the right moves, which it maybe physically is not able to do, or equally your body can’t give the right signals?
-
Hate the fact that you could be letting your horse down?
-
Do you want your horse to visibly participate and enjoy your training together?
You’re not alone, this is why we can feel that things are just simply not quite perfect:
The fact is, that, although we work hard as riders in general, think stable duties, they alone won’t make you strong enough to improve your riding performance.
Lesson after lesson, repeating the wrong moves, may make your horse fitter but not necessarily stronger.
You also need to train yourself when you’re not riding AND you need to build your horse’s strength between your riding sessions.
