Equine Work Experience
I worked on a small private yard for 3 years (2 years part time, 1 full time) where i rode a number of different horses and ponies, including those who were nervous or young. I have lots of experience abroad including working on a small Show Hunter yard in New Zealand - Here I have done a large amount of schooling, jumping and flat, hacking, and taken part in a number of small shows. I have also groomed for them, including bathing/plaiting. I then worked in Ireland for 3 months on a breaking yard where I mainly road Connemara ponies and cobs, ranging from 3yo to 6yo. I returned home from Ireland due to the pandemic. Later in the year I went to Switzerland to produce warmbloods but returned home after the end of my 3 month contract for Christmas. I then proceeded to work locally on a 5* livery yard doing normal yard duties and riding a variety of horses. I have also had my own horses from a young age, and evented them all. I am dedicated and hardworking and thrive to succeed.
