About me

I specialise in dressage and groundwork with horses. I especially enjoy working with ‘less conventional’ dressage breeds, having successfully competed my traditional gypsy cob at advanced levels and trained and competed other horses and ponies to advanced levels of dressage. Of course, I am equally happy working with warmbloods and have a wealth of experience with many different breeds having bred, owned and trained a variety of breeds such as Warmbloods, Highlands and Welsh ponies. 

I coach all levels of rider no matter if their ambitions are to compete to a high level or feel safer when out hacking or handling their horse. My key focus when coaching is communication, firstly I want to ensure the rider understands what I’m meaning. I always provide the ‘what’, ‘how’ and the all important ‘why’ of things as I believe this then empowers riders to be able to replicate things when working on their own. I also believe that helping the rider to understand things from the horse’s perspective is what opens up a greater ability for the rider and horse to communicate with one another and this in turn leads to quicker and easier progress in which ever direction the rider chooses to develop in.

I offer varying packages to clients depending upon their needs and distance. I also offer remote training via zoom (Pivo, pixem). Please contact me for more information and to discuss your needs.
