Experience with Horses
My experience with horses is quite extensive, i have been around horses all my life and became more serious about working and looking after them at 16.
I went to Plumpton Agricultual college and completed my Level 3 diploma in Equine Science and Management, I then went to work as a competition groom for a Grand Prix dressage rider, Within this role I worked with high level dressage stallions, grooming and making sure they were ready for competitions and lessons, i had sole charge of the yard, making sure all the yard duties were completed, from there i went on to be a groom at a local riding school.
I have had a break from being a groom for a few years, due to other commitments. I now have my own horse in which i had to break in myself and we are now ready to start competing.
