Duties of Current Occupation

Riding all types of horses at different ages, levels and disciplines. General Stable duties. Have been left in sole charge of both a livery yard and a dressage yards when owners have been away on holiday or competing.

Equine Work Experience

I have worked on many yards as a freelance groom and rider from as young as 14. I started on a livery yard and progressed to working on a dressage yard alongside a stud yard doing general yard duties. I also did freelance riding for a couple of private horse owners. My experience with training and backing young horses has been with my own projects. I have a lot of knowledge in these areas and would like to progress my career in the field of producing horses up the levels. For this reason, I would love to work on a professional yard doing this to improve my techniques and further strengthen my riding. I am very driven and focused and love the challenge young horses bring and the rewarding feeling when you see them rising up the levels. I have trained to be an Equine Bodywork Practitioner (Masterson Method) and, now that I am qualified, would like to finally take the step towards my dream career producing horses. I am happy witlong hours and helping with all general yard duties.

Specialities

I have worked on a stud yard with broodmares and foals and worked around stallions. I have worked with high level dressage and eventing horses. I have backed two of my own horses and started re training an ex racehorse. Extensive knowledge of horse care and know the signs of bad health having had experience with many emergency situations such as colic, choke and being cast as well as other health complications such as tendon injuries and laminitis. I enjoy keeping the yard to a high standard

Type of Ride Work

I have started re training an ex race horse an I have backed two of my own horses, one a nervous type and other hot headed. I have ridden green horses who have needed an exercise plan fordesensitising and strengthening. I know how to work up the scales of training and have a quick mind to problem solveanything the horse does not understand or horses that rear/buck severely. I have ridden sharp and hot headed horses. As a child, I trained my pony up and competed in a PC team away from home

Competition Details

As started, as a teenager I competed in my Pony Club Dressage team away from home on my pony that I trained up.

I would absolutely love to get back out competing again and the only reason I’m not out every weekend is again because of finances.
