Comments about doing the training in a group or individually –

The group dynamic works very well  if all the participants have the same condition , or need the peer encouragement to take on new ideas and maintain a new program. The program has to be run to cover the broader issues of the group, so might not be for you if you wish to address specific issues.

The individual sessions are akin to private tuition. They are much more specific to the individual’s needs, and it is easier to spot when there are difficulties, or a lack of understanding, then address these issues early on. Because these are one to one sessions they also tend to move along a lot quicker.

Lightning process for children is always done as an individual session, with a parent or carer being trained at the same time.

Concessions are sometimes available - please enquire if you are in receipt of social benefits.

1 day "ride with confidence" workshop

10.00am to 3.00pm - cost £95

(£25 deposit secures place - balance payable on the day)

Friday 27th August

Friday 24th September

This dismounted workshop is designed to help riders regain confidence in their riding, or increase their riding confidence. We will also address competition or exam performance anxiety.

Riders will gain a greater understanding of themselves - their beliefs, motivation and goals, and be able to self coach and put the fun back in their riding.

Workshops can be arranged at your location by arrangement. Please contact me for details.

Hi Sherree

I am really sorry that I have not sent my evaluation form back to you, I have been out having so much fun recently that I have let a few things slip!  I have been cantering Tara, out in open spaces, and in the sand  school, I even cantered into a jump the other day, something I have not done in over 7 years. 

The really strange thing was that when I came back from the course, my daughter who has had quite a few problems with her pony, suddenly found confidence that she never had, we did two weeks of pony club over the Easter holidays, and she went from poles on the ground, to flying through grids at 1ft 9inch’s, I did not discuss the course with her, but I am sure that it was to do with the way that I changed my approach to riding.  I have stopped worrying about what I look like, or am I getting it right, and all the effort of thinking about it to just doing it, and it feels great.  Zoe and I have even been able to start hacking out we have had the odd canter here and there together as well.

........I forgot to say was that I have also lost 2 stone in weight, something I had started about 2 weeks before I came to you, but I have been using my ‘focussing technique’ on this along with my ping band when I wanted some chocolate, so now I am riding with confidence, and not eating chocolate!  I have another 2 stone to go, but am totally confident that I can do it.  When I get there I will send you some before and after pictures.
