One student of the horse's never ending journey of self-improvement

That feeling you get when the heavens open on you and your horse, but they are so emotionally regulated they give you the most trust, willingness and energy ✨

Loving this era of reaping the rewards of investing in sensory and emotional training 🙏 it just makes the physical SO much better 😍😍😍

12 hr shift + gym? Don’t mind if I do 💖

Asking myself to push harder physically helps me find the feeling I need to support the horses through physical exercise with compassion in the heat too. Equality of effort, respect for healthy exercise levels and commitment to being the best 👌

There’s nothing quite like the partnership between our horses, if you know you know ❤

The quiet moments, the breakthroughs, the trust, the partnership — it’s why we do what we do.

This year, we’re bringing together incredible horsemanship events designed to inspire, educate, and deepen that connection with your horse. Whether you’re looking to improve your skills, build confidence, or simply spend time surrounded by people who share the same passion, these events are for you.

This year we are welcoming Magali Delgado & Frédéric Pignon: la passion des chevaux Ben Atkinson & Tik Maynard- not to mention ALL the incredible trainers that will be with us in September!!

Grab your tickets, bring your notebooks, and come learn, grow, and experience the journey with us.

Because great horsemanship is not just about riding — it’s about understanding, patience, partnership, and love for the horse.

We can’t wait to welcome you and your horses this year 🤎🐴

Yesterday Mijas and I made the journey back to Ayton PRE in Devon to hang out with my favourite human !

Mijas was SUCH a superstar to travel, taking every hiccup in her stride, and just generally being an all round perfect pony 🥰💖🥰

Today I needed a little me time to reset my nervous system after the long drive, so I took myself to the gym (I know, who is she?!) and yet again shocked myself with how much I enjoyed it (I blame and his PT black magic…). I think what I am enjoying the most is the huge positive impact I can feel in my riding. Horses deserve the best, and I want to be able to support them as well physically as I can emotionally. Every step I notice towards that goal brings me so much joy!

This afternoon I got a chance to enjoy my skills on a beautiful ride out in the Devon countryside 😍😍😍

The conversation was as rich and inspirational as the view, and Mijas and I continued our time together for hours long into the evening, napping, wandering and pampering together 🥰 truly a girls trip to remember already, she is such a complete superstar and I am so thankful for her presence in my life.

In the morning there will be yoga, and then Elsa’s 4 day clinic starts, where the conversations will only get deeper and deeper and deeper…

I am

Who is she and why is she up and at ‘em at this ungodly hour??!!

Only the social pressure of a PT (thanks ) could get me out to the gym 😂

But why do you have a PT Lucy??? I hear you ask 😉

Because whilst I do have many skills, what I lack, as those closest to me will attest to, is the athleticism of a great horse rider!

Building is the most exciting project I’ve ever undertaken. Part of the core philosophy is understanding how to train in a balance of the emotional, physical and psychological needs of each individual horse.

At different times in the course of any horse’s training, one or another piece might take precedence, with all coming back together to build a physically, mentally and emotionally resilient partner and a joyful relationship.

Understanding the whole-horse-human picture has allowed me to develop a healthier relationship with myself as well. Instead of shame, discomfort, and fear fuelling my relationship with my physical skills, I can now meet myself with the same love and compassion that I feel with horses, and enter a journey of development with excitement, determination and curiosity….

At 8am on a Saturday, also a strong cup of coffee 😉
