Experience with Horses

I am currently on a year out from my studies, BSc Equine Science degree. I have been riding since I was 5 years of age, which includes show jumping, cross country and dressage competitions. In recent years I have dedicated much of my time to rehabilitating troubled horses. During this process I create a bond with the horse and work towards building their confidence and ability in order to resolve their issues. I have loaned and ridden for many individuals and yards helping out and exercising horses of all ages and temperaments. I have also worked along side Kelly Johnson who is an established reiki master.

Key Skills

• Riding horses of all different levels

• Grooming

• Health checking horses

• Mucking out

• Cleaning tack

• Helping clients

• Maintaining a proper training regime for each individual horse

• Training certain horses for competition level

• Working in a team or individually on the yard

• Working with clients and helping their confidence

• Training horses with different temperaments and ages

Strengths and Weaknesses

• I have a natural affinity with horses and enjoy watching them progress with the training and support I have applied.

• I wish to improve my knowledge, understanding and practical skills in the equine industry.

• I have always had a passion for equine care and rehabilitation. My areas of interest lie within equine welfare and their well being. I enjoy working as part of a team or alone too. I am an excellent communicator and enjoy meeting new people. I hope to be able to combine all my skills ultimately at an international level.
