Bio
Analytical equestrian applying problem-solving to biomechanics. Known for ice-cold calmness in emergencies. Unbreakable endurance (riding difficult horses for hours). A disciplined 'blank canvas' ready to be molded by a pro EU equestrian system.
Qualifications

While I lack traditional certificates, my background as an advanced software developer (42 School) is my strongest asset. It trained me to be a rapid learner and a systematic problem solver. I excel at breaking down complex biomechanics and horse psychology without guesswork. I don't need years to grasp a physical concept; I analyze, adapt, and build muscle memory incredibly fast. If integrated into your system, I offer an engineer's discipline combined with intuitive empathy.

Duties of Current Occupation

Mucking out, deep grooming, feeding, tacking up, and lunging. Highly experienced in handling high-strung ex-racehorses and safely leading energetic horses for long hours during busy weekends. I take pride in the heavy physical routines of a yard.

Equine Work Experience

My journey is built on pure grit. I am self-taught, decoding biomechanics frame-by-frame. I possess unbreakable physical/mental endurance, easily managing a highly resistant, kicking horse for 3 continuous hours, or drilling stirrupless canters for 40 mins while fasting. My greatest asset is instinctual crisis management. During a severe emergency, a spooked horse broke a tie ring, dragging a heavy wooden fence. I held the lead and instinctively jumped onto the moving fence to 'surf' and stabilize it, safely stopping the horse. I ignored my own injuries until the horse was fully calmed using posture mirroring. During a fall with feet caught in stirrups, I experienced zero panic, adjusting mid-air to protect my head. I offer extreme emotional regulation and a true horse-first mentality.

Specialities

I specialize in crisis de-escalation, behavioral rehab, and gaining the absolute trust of traumatized horses. When a horse panics, my heart rate drops. I recently rehabilitated a highly defensive English gelding in 14 days using precise micro-timing and trust-based groundwork. I thrive in chaotic yard environments, acting as an unshakeable anchor for the herd to maintain order. I prioritize the horse's physical and mental well-being above all else, ensuring safety under pressure.

Type of Ride Work

My experience is primarily flatwork, retraining high-strung ex-racehorses. I have a highly secure, independent seat, regularly sprinting without stirrups on young, energetic horses. I can maintain perfect balance during sudden propping or spooking. I possess extreme stamina for demanding flatwork. I am a true 'blank canvas'—free from stubborn bad habits and fully eager to be molded into your specific discipline, bringing raw talent and a highly adaptable physical foundation.

Competition Details

I do not currently have competition experience, as I have dedicated my time to mastering biomechanics, understanding the equine mind, and proving my physical endurance in the yard. However, I am fiercely competitive with myself and possess an unwavering drive to execute tasks flawlessly. I am fully prepared mentally and physically to handle the intense pressure and high standards of a professional competition yard, and I am eager to be trained to your exact grooming standards.
