New workshop

Introducing a combination of gentle Yoga and the Riding Simulator.
Reminding people to breathe is something I do almost every lesson it’s often the last thing we think about when we concentrate.
Using the Simulator alongside yoga techniques will allow you time to understand how different riding can feel when we get the breathing right.

A few words from Jaimie who will be running the yoga side.

”Hi, I’m Jaimie, I’ve ridden most of my life, joining pony club teams as a child, then working freelance in the equine industry.
My style of yoga is Gentle Hatha focussing on breath, body awareness, alignment and relaxation (so don’t worry-no handstands here!)
I love to share how yoga helped me and I look forward to meeting you at one of our workshops.”

These workshops will be held over two sessions the first on the 7th of September and the second on the 28th September.
Each workshop will last an hour and a half with 2 people per session.

Times available are:
10.00am-11.30am
12pm-1.30pm
2pm-3.30pm
Price per person £150.00 for both sessions.
No previous yoga experience needed.
Must of ridden the Simulator previously.

SOLD OUT before 8.30am 😄 another date will be coming in October.
Exciting times ahead!
I shall be working with two very talented ladies to bring you two unique workshops. Combining the Riding Simulator with Breathing based yoga sessions and the return of our Riding Simulator, Alexander Technique workshop.

Yoga dates will be released tomorrow but first up the Alexander Technique.

If you have ridden with me you have probably heard me talk about Sarah the Alexander lady. Well the dairies have aligned and we are back hosting our combined Alexander Technique and Riding Simulator workshop.

The workshops will be held on Sunday 30th August. There are 3 slots available 2 people per session.

10.30am to 12pm
1pm to 2.30pm
2.45pm to 4.15pm

Price £100.00 per person.

Each session involves time working with both me and Sarah on and off the horse as we work on releasing unwanted tension and improving natural poise and coordination. Helping you achieve your goals with less stress, enabling you to improve your riding and partnership with your horse.

To book your slot message me on 07885972142.

These sessions sell out fast with limited spaces available.

Sessions are available on a first come first serve basis. Payment is required upfront and non refundable. Previous experience on the Simulator is required. Experience of Alexander Technique not needed.

Tomorrow is my birthday which means I have been working with horses for 29 years.
Looking back it’s been quite the journey and I would have loved to be able to tell the younger me so many things……

The risk you took leaving school at 16 to work with horses when you didn’t have a clue what that really meant was a brave and bold decision even if you only did it to avoid A levels.

The BHS examiner who said she would have failed you but the other 2 said you passed. She wasn’t being nice or constructive and you would go on to pass every exam, module and assessment you have taken since.

The pony that put you on the floor every time you rode him. He was teaching you a lesson in listening when you got it right he would fly.

The time you were left in charge of an entire yard of horses on New Year’s Eve and it snowed freezing all the pipes. The horses escaped and the power went will be one of your funniest memories.

Being diagnosed with dyslexia didn’t mean much back then but has given you the skills you needed to see things through different eyes.

The instructor that told you she’d be surprised if you made it because you were too soft. She didn’t realise that was a compliment.

Your whole career will be shaped by a Robot horse. This will allow you to achieve things you never could have imagined. Making small differences to people along the way. A privilege you could never of imagined.

You will meet the worst of the worst in the horse world but also some of the kindest people too.

You aren’t right for every rider AND every rider isn’t right for you. Thats OK.

You have chosen a career that will never get boring it’s constantly evolving.

The horses all of them will teach you so much. Be kind, be brave, be open to adapting.

You will never regret buying the pony with the terrible feet, who wouldn’t be touched the one that taught you more than any human ever could. The one that taught you doing it differently is ok.
