Pilates based riding means you ride independently of your hands better riders happier horses
Callum and Chole competed at sunshine tour for little riders that only ride weekly or fourtnightly they did there mums and dads and myself so proud Callam came 6th in the M & M and chole went on to the championship coming reserve champion very proud of these two fantastic little triers proving you dont have to own your own pony but be dedicated and ride correctly
Recently I was asked ‘Am I a good rider?’, sat upon her 14.2 cob, covered in poo stains that she couldn’t quite get out before her lesson, that she had persuaded her mum to buy a year ago for just £400. (The pony wasn’t wanted anymore) ‘Why do you ask that?’ I replied for she knew how this young girl felt,
... ‘Because I want to be one' I pondered for a minute and then said, ‘A good rider is not someone who buys flashy horses and competes every Saturday and makes it to the top within a year. A good rider is not one whom jumps the highest jumps or owns the fastest horse. A good rider isn’t made just because they’ve been riding since they were 3. A good rider is not someone who can move their forward horse forward... A good rider is not someone WHOM tells everyone else what to do but can't do it themselves
A good rider is that pony clubber you see fall off every time she gets on something new, yet still gets back on with a smile on her face, A good rider is that person who cries in the tack room because of how her horse behaved and how hard it’s been to cope watching everyone else be successful, but to that person it seems like she is the only one failing, yet still rewards the horse with a good rub down and a lovely thick bed
A good rider is the boy with the angel horse, yet doesn’t claim any of its successes for himself “‘It was all him’”, he would say, “‘I just sat to it’”
A good rider listens to the correct qualified people A good rider is soft and works with the horse A good rider makes sure the horse is always happy,
If you love it, and you try, and you try again, even when you fall off and it was your fault, even when people point because your equine is not "'on the bit'" or "you have no saddle"
if you never give up, despite what everyone pointing the finger says
That’s what makes a good rider’

Next time you watch your favourite ‘horse guru’ let a young horse buck with the saddle, remember this: Bucking is a last line of defence for a young horse. A young horse bucks because he’s frightened of the saddle and can see no other way. Some horses never get over this terrifying experience.
How about fly masks or rugs ?
This is the first time Herbie has ever wore a fly face protector. Lets see how he got on.
... I know there is a easier route, why not join me on the path

Interesting
Such a fantastic time meeting Claire and getting to know the horses before a ride for my daughters birthday today. We can't wait to come back!!
Such a brilliant morning. Lilia and her friends feel at ease and at home at your stables. Claire ,Ash you are truly fantastic!
My 6 year old boy loves his riding lessons and i love the fact that its not just riding he does.
Amazing work in all they do would highly recommend
I had Mia come out to Clip
My pony isn't always easy, he can be a difficult, strong, determined Welsh pony. He can make life difficult for some people whilst clipping, Mia was wonderful with him! He went from being a sleepy pony to a devil! Mia was so patient she knew just what to do with him and he once again stood still for a few minutes. Mia had a good eye when clipping her lines were straight and she even got near his ears! Im so pleased I'll definitely be asking Mia to come back again.
