Experience with Horses

I have been riding horses for 27+years and working formally in the industry for 15+. I have managed both big and small yards with most of my time spent on training and riding. I have coached extensively throughout the years.  As well as backed and schooled one of my own pony who went on to become a A+ juniors showjumper. I spent a number of years taking beginners out on beach trails some of whome had never been on a horse.

I now freelance to a few people through my groundman ship company, helping people overcome their fears when handling particularly difficult horses.

I also have a manufacturing company for equestrian products Called Callisto equestrian.
