About Me
Dressage is my passion, I love the art of training and the feeling the horse gives you when it all goes right.
I started dressage at age 14 training my first pony to level 4, by 19 I had my first horse at FEI young rider's and I never looked back. Since then I have trained multiple horses through the grades. I love producing young horses from the start, the way they progress and grow in confidence is hugely rewarding.
Before I put my focus on dressage, I produced horses in eventing. Producing 2 horses through to 2* and many young ones before they went off to new homes.
While finishing my degree in conservation & ecology SSG Equestrian was built. With our own premises on 35 acres and excellent facilities. This enabled me to be able to study while also keeping my own horses in work and being able to do something I love each and every day. After finishing my degree I promptly made the decision that I loved what I was doing and pursued my business full time.
