One hour individual sessions aimed at assessing the horse and rider’s issues, the rider’s hopes and goals, and forming a plan to resolve the issues and achieve those goals. 

Suitable for very novice to advanced horses and riders and individually tailored to their needs

Richard’s system of working through trot and canter poles in a grid before tackling a course gives a structure to the session which builds confidence in novice horses and riders and enables the more proficient rider to warm up without putting the horse under pressure.  The grid is then gradually built up in height to determine the horse and rider’s capabilities before the course of jumps is adjusted in height and format, with a view to achieving a ‘perfect’ round.  

Sharon’s talents as an all-round trainer, together with her empathy for horse and rider, enable her to be totally flexible in working at all levels for flatwork, jumping and showing.

The sessions last approximately three-quarters of an hour and are geared to the trainees individual goals, whether affiliated competing or general riding.
