Hi there!

I am an 18 year old student in my gap year before university. Having owned and worked with horses for over 12 years, I am looking for a coaching job in and around London. I have excellent qualifications (AAAA at A-Level from Woodhouse College) and am extremely knowledgeable on all things equine.

I have coached adult dressage and show-jumping competitors before, as well as children, and have 'solved' problem ponies with great success! I am passionate about establishing trusting working relationships between horse and rider, but also try my hardest to accommodate individual needs and wishes using optimism as a foundation. I pride myself on helping young riders gain confidence through gentle and trust-building exercises, incorporating elements of Horse whispering, Parelli and modern English riding to help people listen to their horses and build an unbreakable and advantageous bond.

As i do not have a BHS qualification (I had to go to college before completing it) I offer a cheaper rate than normal riding instructors, but my advice and methods are in no way second rate!

I am willing to help people and horses of any age and experience, and am open to discussing prices. As a dedicated rider, I am hard-working, expert and caring, but I also bring a spark of fun and enthusiasm so essential to successful learning.

I am more than happy to send you my C.V - just email me if you are interested! kestrel_jcv@tiscali.co.uk
