A technology like no other, Pivo allows for dynamic video calls during remote coaching. It pans 360 degree during the call, so your coach can watch as you ride along. No more static video calls that restrict the movement of the camera, Pivo is a complete idea of getting coached real time for horse riders. And along with the Pivo Headset, you can also listen to and speak with your coach while taking the lesson, as well as the guest viewer (coach) can record the complete lesson, which is useful to watch back later and provide more in-depth feedback and be kept as a record of progress.

The features don’t just end there, the innovative Guest Control feature actually lets your coach control the movement of your Pod at their fingertips! This allows them to give you detailed instructions and especially helps them never miss ANY moment! This overall solution by Pivo lets you have the best experience of remote lessons which is indeed valuable, helpful and is literally like having your coach present with you!
