Equine Work Experience

I've been riding my whole life (I am now 24 and started when I was 4 years old). I did show jumping and many pony camps growing up, spent my childhood doing horse riding lessons and had the opportunity to be trained by Barry Armitage. I worked at many stable yards and know how to run them. At 15 years old I moved to a farm and rescues horses, which I trained myself. I threw myself in the deep end and it was the best decision I ever made. I taught myself through trial, error and success how to help a horse in need, and to show them the patience, love and kindness they deserve. Throughout my self-taught natural horsemanship career, I decided to introduce human-animal bonding techniques by teaching children how to ride and connect with horses (all my students came from broken homes, and all of the transformations were beautiful for both child and horse. I currently train horses for fun and do stunt performing work on horseback
