Ridden C0aching
I work with riders through one to one ridden coaching sessions on a freelance basis in the North Wiltshire area. I also hold regular clinics at Breach Lane Equine Centre, Royal Wootton Bassett. With over 20 years of experience in equestrian coaching I help riders develop better partnerships with their horse with a particular focus on rider psychology and biomechanics.

My riding philosophy
I sometimes joke that my role as an equestrian coach can feel a bit like that of a marriage councillor. This is because I believe its not a case of bad riders or bad horses but more of an issues with a breakdown in communication between the rider and their horse. Its one thing for a rider to have an idea of how a horse should go, but if that’s not what they are communicating to their horse through their posture and their aiding system, they cannot lay the blame with their horse when all does not go to plan. It is the riders responsibility to work to develop their approach and technique. As I often say to my riders if you want better answers you need to learn to ask better questions! By working on riders understanding of training strategies, mindset and biomechanics I help them build a happy and harmonious partnership with their horse.
