Qualifications
I've followed a study (duration is 3 years) called 'Equine behaviour therapy', which also includes nutrition, movement, saddle fitting etc.
I have a 'ruiterbewijs' which is like a pasport, needed if you want to be able to ride in certain areas in nature in The Netherlands and safely manoeuvre true traffic.
Duties of Current Occupation
Groom and (flat)rider for dressage horses in Germany. Horse trainer/flatrider for showjumping horses in Morocco. Flatrider/dressage for showjumping horses in Morocco.
Equine Work Experience
I've started riding horses since I was around 7 years old. I started riding/competing at a manege where I rode in groups and private. When I was around 9 years old I started riding a private (Arabian) horse for several years and receiving dressage lessons weekly. I leased a horse for a few years after. I rode my own horse (a trotter) for years and competed successfully in dressage competitions until L (Dutch). Afterwards I started working as a groom/rider and for one year I would ride about 6/7 horses a day. I owned a dressage horse after which I competed as well until L2. I worked with young and older showjumping horses (also stallions) in Morocco, dressage training and flat riding.
Specialities
I've worked with foals when I was working in Germany, but I don't have a lot of experience in this field, of course I'm open to learn more. I have experience in riding stallions and young horses, riding dressage competitions, riding outdoors and certificated in The Netherlands to do so, I'm educated in recognising behaviour issues and handling them accordingly.
Type of Ride Work
Flatwork, dressage and a little jumping.
Competition Details
I have competed in The Netherlands (only) dressage until L2, almost M. I've competed in two dressage competitions in Germany. I've worked at several competitions in Germany and Austria as a groom.
