I offer help through a variety of options for you and your horse. Whether working in a private lesson, a group clinic or a training situation, it is always my aim to put people at ease and treat them with respect. I strongly desire for horses and people to enjoy their time with me. If there is anyway I can help that is not listed, please get in touch and I will see what I can do.
Lessons (individual/private):
Lessons are an ideal starting place for all types of people and horses of every age and stage and are tailored to individuals needs. Lessons can be on the basis of an assessment - a 'where to from here?' If you have a new horse, or any particular problems or hopes and dreams, it is helpful to start by helping you assess your horses situation, and coming up with a plan. Many people come to us with their horses or ponies and just want some guidance as to how we can help. After the first lesson, if people want to use our services, they can decide whether they want to put the horse in training, join in on our weekend run clinics, or have regular lessons.
