Karen, Thank you so much for helping Ava. In two rides she has gone from being nervous of trotting to trotting independently for multiple laps of the arena! You sense the second she starts to freeze or panic. You have given her the tools to work through it quickly and happily.

Many thanks Fluer (Mum)

10 year old Avas own words.

Hi Karen, When I am having a lesson Karen makes me feel safe and comfortable even when at first I am scared and worried. Karen teaches me to bond with the horse and breathe. When I talk to them and relax it makes me happy and I enjoy lessons more.

When I rode Awesome, Karen’s own horse, at first I did not want to trot but then I calmed down and breathed I got more work done. Riding always makes me feel better and having horses to talk to is really nice because I can go out there and the horses will always listen.

These lessons are helping my confidence in riding different horses and bonding. Before I went to have lessons I was not confident in my riding and would not ride different horses. Now that I have been going to Karen’s I have got more confident and learnt more.
