Dressage Rider Coaching

“THERE IS NO FAILURE, EXCEPT IN NO LONGER TRYING” - CARL HESTER

My goal is to help riders become the best they can be at whatever level or stage they are at in their riding career.

I will help you to overcome obstacles that might be holding you back and work with you to improve your ability to give clear aids to your horse. This will enable you to develop a clear communication system so that you are on the same wavelength. You will also become more confident in dealing with situations that don’t go according to plan, which can be quite often when you are riding horses!!!

I don’t believe in bullying or dominating horses, I truly believe that once they understand and trust you they are happy to work with you. I believe strongly that it’s the rider's responsibility to be the best they can be and it’s a lifetimes work and you never stop learning. Horses are our best teachers.

"There is a difference between being a leader and a boss. Both are based on authority. A boss demands blind obedience, a leader earns his authority through understanding and trust."
