Qualifications
At the moment I do not, due to financial reasons. I started an assistant instructor course, which I was unable to continue due to once again financial reasons.
Duties of Current Occupation
I ride youngster and “problem” horses, making them suitable for beginners and lessons. I have started horses from nothing, including my own.
Equine Work Experience
I started riding when I was 5 years old, doing dressage and vaulting. When I was 10 I moved to Italy, where i started cross country and show jumping. When I was 13 I started helping my instructor with horses that needed some extra attention. At 14 he bought me a pony to train, for future lesson use. After that I helped train some OOTB horses and helped with some basic foal training. At 16 I finally got my own horse, an untouched “wild” yearling, from an Asinara, an Island where there are too many horses. I started her from nothing, now even 8 year olds ride jump her with no problem. At 18 I bought another horse, a 3 year old grumpy mare. I started her all by myself as well. I’ve also ridden a lot of competitions, including dressage, jumping and endurance.
