- While I have been riding since I was young and had my own horse for 10+ years ,I haven’t been fortune enough to gain more professional teaching and would love to be able to. I am happy to school safe/hack out uncomplicated horses but anything further I would need training. I appreciate this isn’t alway available and a riding role isn’t essential but would be truly a bonus.
- While I was exploring and moved to a few different yards I gained experience working with young horses, mares and foals. I haven’t done a huge amount in this area but have experience with foal watch and handing new borns to 6 month olds. This is an area I would also be happy to go back into and further gain fromIn terms of what im looking for
- I am open to any discipline however I am mostly interested dressage and showing. I also have an interest in polo as I’m a real buzzy character and thrive of a fast paced environment.
- I am also interested in doing a season abroad, aware this would require a visa and other things id have to sort but I’m more than happy to do this.
- Im currently based in reading but am happy relocate for the right role. I would be looking for a live in role with single accommodation. I come with a car and a full uk driving licence. no pets at this current time or annoying partners.
- If a live out position is available id be looking for no where more than a half an hours drive from reading/winnersh.
- Im a very fit and capable individual, I love being outdoors and am always doing something within the fitness industry I keep myself to myself and want for nothing. Just genuinely have a love for horses and will bring a no drama attitude wherever I go.
