I coach riders at all levels and experience, and can sympathetically re-build confidence where needed. QTT is a gentle talk technique in which the client is guided (without the horse being present ) through a proces

s to release emotions that are not working for you when you are with you horse. This is an excellent technique for anxiety ,feeling overwhelmed, fear and stress management which can transform our emotions in a positive way with our horse.

✨ Confidence & Mindset Evening with Sinead Cooney ✨

📅 30th March
📍 Bohermeen Community Centre, Neillstown, Bohermeen, Co. Meath (C15 XW97)

After speaking with many amateur riders, it’s become very clear that confidence in the ring is something most of us struggle with at some point in our riding journey.

This evening with Sinead Cooney will focus on helping riders:
• Understand where fear and nerves come from
• Reset their mindset around riding and competition
• Build trust and confidence in both themselves and their horse
• Learn how to ride in a calm, positive way that supports both horse and rider

It promises to be a really insightful and supportive evening for anyone looking to improve their mindset and confidence in the saddle.

🎟 Spaces are limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

Struggling with confidence in the saddle and feel blocked with your jumping?
Why not try a pole clinic?
Using pole work, with the option of no jumping effort, you’ll have space to focus on your horse’s balance, rhythm, and responsiveness..

Do you find your horse reacting or resisting, leaving you with the feeling of rushing, pulling, bracing, leaving you vulnerable and your contact gone ?

Do you find yourself with the feeling of "not fit enough "when introducing canter or jumping — even though it’s not really about fitness?
Often this comes from nervousness, fear, or blocking your body, which in turn your horse will naturally react to and affect their way of going.

This clinic gives you space to take a breath, rebuild confidence, and refine your position with step by step guidance.
New skills that carry straight into jumping when you’re ready.

3 RIDERS PER GROUP
JUMPING IS AVAILABLE ON THE DAY— just let me know the height you’re interested in, and you’ll be booked into a group that works for you.
35 euro per person.

Book both dates for the price €60

📅 Dates: 21st & 28th March

Ever feel like your horse:
✔ drifts on a line
✔ falls in or out on turns
✔ ignores the outside rein
✔ finds a different canter every lap
✔ makes takeoff feel like a guess
That’s not a “jumping problem.”
That’s a rideability problem.
If your horse isn’t straight and balanced in the canter,
you’ll always be guessing at takeoff instead of seeing it.
The canter controls:
• the line
• the turn
• and the distance
Take the first step in helping your horse understand what you are asking for.
Fix the canter — and the jump fixes itself.

Flatwork and pole work clinic

👉If you’re returning to riding, rebuilding confidence, or wanting to improve balance and control without pressure, this session is for you.

👉The clinic begins on the flat, spending time working through a variety of pole exercises designed to help your horse become more supple, balanced, and prepared for jumping.

👉Jumping is always an option on the day and is guided by what feels right for you and your horse.
