NVQ Level 3 Sports Massage

BVQ Level 2 Gym Instructor

I have worked with horses varying from covering stallions to foals and am confident handling all types of horses. I am happy and competent to work in a sole charge role but also as part of a team. Over the years I have worked on a variety of yards from a stud where my role was handling/riding fit competition horses (including stallions,) taking mares to AI appointments and handling the young stock aswell as making sure the yard was kept up to a very high standard. I have worked on a yard with hunters/point to pointers where turnout skills had to be of a very high standard, time management and the ability to work as a close team under pressure. I have also spent the last 6 years as a freelance groom with long standing clients in their homes looking after all the daily needs of their own horses.
