Hey There
I am a dedicated and detail-focused dressage coach with a passion for developing confident, capable riders and harmonious partnerships. With a strong background in competitive riding and a calm, structured approach to coaching, I tailor each lesson to suit the individual's goals and strengths. Whether that is working with riders preparing for their first test or those aiming for higher-level performance, my focus is always on building clarity, connection, and consistency, both in and out of the arena.
All About Me
I’m a passionate and dedicated dressage rider and coach, committed to helping riders progress with confidence, clarity, and purpose. I aim to create a calm, supportive environment where both horse and rider can feel focused and encouraged.
Before turning my focus to dressage, I gained experience across a range of disciplines, including show jumping, eventing, and showing. This well-rounded background has given me a deeper understanding of horse training and rider development from multiple perspectives. I’ve competed at a national level in dressage, often as the youngest rider in my class, and have ridden up to Advanced Medium while training through to Prix St Georges. These experiences have shaped my approach to coaching, blending technical precision with a strong awareness of each rider’s unique journey.
I’ve had the privilege of training with Grand Prix rider Nicky Pope for over 5 years, and I bring that experience and standard of coaching into every lesson I teach. Over the years, I’ve ridden horses of all types, from green young horses to experienced schoolmasters, which has taught me the importance of adapting my approach to bring out the best in every horse and rider.
My goal is to support riders who are passionate about dressage and ready to put in the work, whether you’re polishing the foundations or preparing for your next test. I believe in developing confident, capable riders who value both progress and partnership in the arena.
