This week I've spent 3 days working in North Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 which I absolutely love. I work this area about once a month but this is the furthest west I have been for work so this is the route I have taken starting in Lixwm, then to Bronaber, across to Barmouth where me a Fletcher stayed with one of my lovely clients in her beautiful air b n b which I can give you the info for if you like it was absolutely gorgeous and we managed to sneak in a few cheeky walks before heading to treat more horses towards Bala and Wrexham then heading home. Long days lot of amazing horses but lots of fun too. If you want to get in on my next visit to this area let me know and I'll put you on the list and keep you updated as to dates and times 😁

🌟Next Mechanical horse day at Racewood Tarporley 28th March 2026 book quick to get your slot🌟

Benefits of Lessons on a Mechanical Horse:
1️⃣Improved Rider Position, Balance, alignment & biomechanics gives instant feedback on posture, symmetry, core engagement. Much easier for me to correct crookedness or collapsing hips/shoulders & work on your weaknesses or independent seat, hands, legs
2️⃣Controlled, Repetitive Practice when horse movement is consistent, allowing repetition of movements without worrying about the horse becoming tense, tired, or confused. Ideal for practicing transitions, seat aids, rein coordination etc
3️⃣Safe Environment. Great for riders having a confidence wobble, nervous or novice or those recovering from injury. Eliminates the risk of falling, being bucked or run away with, + no risk of a horse reacting to your mistakes
4️⃣Instant Feedback & Data. This simulator offers real-time feedback on rein pressure, leg pressure, symmetry, & balance with screens & mirrors to show live data great for identifying habits
5️⃣ Instructor Focus. I can see you from all angles close up, stand next to you & adjust position without worrying about horse movement. Easier to teach seat aids or refine rider biomechanics without interference from a horse’s behavior
6️⃣Physical Conditioning. Builds core stability & strength, encouraging correct muscle use & endurance without fatigue from managing an unpredictable horse
7️⃣Can work on multiple disciplines in a short time, dressage, show jumping and cross country.

👉🏼These lessons are on the eventing simulator & last approx 50mins cost is £60, £30 deposit payable at time of booking to secure your place, discounts for booking multiple slots (for you and a friend or a course of sessions) More dates will be added soon, so if you can't make this one let me know and you'll be given priority on the next

It's time to work on you, make yourself better, for the benefit of your horse 🐴

Sorry to everyone that I have had to cancel over the last 4 days and I've been a bit slow at replying to messages I've had some kind of flu type virus that has knocked me off my feet, so as you can see no makeup, not brushed my hair in days, slept lots and just about starting to feel a little human again and getting my sense of humour back 😆, so will be getting back to everyone that I need to reschedule and those that have called and messaged asap ✌🏼

Almost every rehab failure happens because owners go too fast too soon

Slow is therapeutic, fast is compensation

Even small improvements can take up to 3-4 weeks which understandably owners can find frustrating and disheartening so want to do more, but more isn't necessarily better.

The aim with most rehab in general is:
Restore movement → Control posture → Build strength. Stick with the plan.

Good signs, keep going but don't speed anything up just because it's going well:
✔ longer stride
✔ relaxed head, face & neck
✔ quieter tail
✔ better core strength
✔ softer back
✔ stepping under

Bad signs, regress, take a step back on your plan, go slower, contact your rehab specialist or vet:
✖ hollowing
✖ rushing
✖ ear pinning
✖ refusing poles

Rehab is never a straight line, it's a long journey, there will be bumps in the road 🛣️

Be careful! The grass is growing if you think it is or not. This bit had absolutely nothing on it last week, now look!!

Next week I'm planning my diary for spring leading into summer, I've already had some requests of what clients would like to see/ like me to run which includes:

💟 Racewood simulator clinics

💟 Arena cross country clinics

💟 Grass cross country clinics - higher levels & grassroots

💟 In-hand clinics - classical & rehabilitative

💟 Corrective pole clinics

💟 Functional posture clinics

💟 Horse owners massage course

Is there anything else you would like to see in the coming months?

Are you interested in booking on any of these once dates and locations are confirmed? Then I can get an idea of numbers as that might affect how many I plan for, location etc.

Now is the time, let me know 🤳🏼 dm or WhatsApp
