About me

Riders — a little more about who I am and what I stand for; I’m a respected performance coach with 35+ years in the industry, and I settle for nothing less than the best — while making sure both horses and riders enjoy their training along the way.

I’ve trained with some of the world’s most elite coaches, and my knowledge goes far beyond traditional riding instruction. I’m also a: ✨ Personal Trainer – biomechanics specialist ✨ Nutritionist (equine + human) ✨ NLP Master Practitioner & Centre 10 performance psychology ✨ Human Psychology degree holder …combined with my extensive equestrian coaching qualifications to create a holistic, results-driven approach where nothing is overlooked. 

I work with riders who want real progress, clear results, and consistent performance, without sacrificing the connection or enjoyment with their horse. As a freelance performance coach, I can travel wherever you want to train, with remote coaching available for those further afield. If you’re ready to elevate your riding, whether competitively or just for your own development, get in touch and discover the SJE approach.
