Profile Information

About Me:
I'm a self-employed riding instructor (BHSAI + Int.Teaching) with a lot of plans and big dreams. More about me: http://equestriantrainer.co.uk/
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Intensive-Training-Equestrian/3016505...

My aim is to eventually run a successful equestrian academy for all levels with the quality of teaching and horses' welfare being the key values. My personal pet hate is lousy, incorrect teaching detrimental to the horse.
I'm passionate about my work and love seeing people enjoying the sport.
My personal goal is to compete at the highest possible level and challenge my skills everyday.

*wonder if Olympic Games will still be around once I'm ready for them ;)*

X-rays done...


Every time I get Kingsley out of his stable I hope for some miracle to happen. I hope to see him moving with no sign of discomfort, loose and supple like any healthy, sound, happy 5 year old horse would. But of course, it's not as easy as that.
After a lot of lost time with previous vets we went for a complete… Continue

For the smiles


I had to pull a couple of lame horses out of lessons today which didn't seem very well welcomed by the school's owner. Considering there is only a few horses to play with, the team on the yard had rather difficult task to keep everything ticking somewhat. On top of that, the weather is wrecking the arenas, we… Continue

Day Off

My teaching was cancelled today, one of the things that are rather unsettling when you freelance, especially that the cancellations very often come day before and not much else can be arranged for in such a short space of time.
I thought it would be a good idea to do some resting but I am not convinced one day of rest is so beneficial. I actually feel my bones and joints more! Must be ceasing up. After half a day leisurely in bed I played a very very good housewife and spent good few hours sprin… Continue

We're having arena problems here too. Please be careful. A couple of weeks ago I went riding in what I thought was a dry enough turf arena. There was still enough moisture under the surface to cause my horse to lose his footing and we both ended u...

HelloOOOOooo and Welcome to Barnmice!!

One of my favorite quotes is by Gloria Steinem, who says
Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.

Sincere Best Wishes for Success with Your Future Plans!!
