"Desire is key to motivation, but it is the determination and commitment to excellence that returns success"
​
TRAINING WITH CHRISTINE
Firstly Christine likes to understand what you as a rider want to achieve. She will then work with you to help you understand what you’ll need to do to achieve your performance goals. Christine will spend time assessing any current limitations or barriers to performance for both horse and rider. Following this she will systematically use exercises and training routines to build the required strength, understanding and confidence to achieve the desired outcomes for you and your horse.
​
At all times Christine will ensure you as the rider understand where you are up to, why she is working with you the way she is and what the next steps for you are. Her down to earth style, honest communication and relaxed approach ensure that riders and horses, no matter what their previous experience, are able to learn, understand, experience progress and most importantly enjoy their dressage training!
