Equine Work Experience
I have worked with horses from a young age, helping on the family yard from 14 onwards. I have also worked on a number of livery yards, competition yards and private yards. I currently hold a BSc(Tons) in Equine Therapy and Rehabilitation and I am working towards my MSc in Veterinary Physiotherapy. I have an extensive knowledge base in exercise physiology, the formation of training programmes for a range of disciplines, nutrition and how to formulate an appropriate diet for horses in a number of disciplines and an even wider knowledge of therapeutic modalities and how to train horses with career longevity in mind. I have worked with a wide variety of horses and have a sympathetic approach to training. I am an efficient worker and I do my best to achieve a high standard in everything I do. I take pride in my work and like to see a job well done.
Specialities
Worked with a large variety of horses including ex-racers, racers, show jumpers, happy hackers etc. Wide variety of experience and adaptable personality. I have a great work ethic and take pride in the work I do (there's nothing nicer than a clean yard). Worked in number of backgrounds and thoroughly enjoy working with a range of equine personalities. I have worked with young stock, stallions and broodmares, although not extensively. Able to manage a team and keep a yard busy.
Type of Ride Work
I've ridden in a number of scenarios, from happy hackers to fit racers. Happy to ride and produce young horses, having done so on a number of yards. Also happy to ride excitable competition horses (as I have 2 of my own) and anything in-between. Able to work and manage problem horses (within reason) and formulate solutions to behavioural issues.
