Ever  thought  ‘I don’t know why my horse is doing that … or Why is he not doing what I ask him to…’  My training methods are very holistic, I look at the horse and rider as a combination and how we can get the best out of both to develop the partnership. We will often chat about how the horse behaves generally and discover information to explain a particular type of behaviour.  Horses are herd animals and that is always something I keep in the back of my mind.  I encourage riders to tap into what makes the horse tick (food, praise, encouragement, correction) and work on ways to motivate the horse whilst making riding corrections so that they ride in way that gives the horse the best opportunity to perform.

I would like to bring dressage to as many people as possible and eradicate the elitist attitude that often surrounds it.   My commitment is to horses and making sure that as many of them as possible enjoy their life and ridden experience.
