Spent nearly 2 years in the US learning from Craig (2003-2005)
Many hours of seat training, dressage and jumping lessons with Craig
A unique opportunity to watch him teach, ride and train horses over many months
Many happy hours practise-riding his trained horses.
Still attending Craig's clinics in the UK and making occasional visits to the USA.
Continuing to learn from Craig, and from every other horse and trainer I meet!
Described as a "calm and humourous" instructor
"Natural" Training
Experienced, gentle and effective trainer of horses using tools and methods influenced by Monty Roberts, Kelly Marks, Mark Rashid and others.
Clear explanations and training for owners/handlers
Pony Club and Riding Club instructor in "natural" methods
20 years experience of riding and retraining "problem" horses
Holder of the Monty Roberts Preliminary Certificate of Horsemanship
The Certificate involves assessments of Join-Up, longlining and remedial loading; 2 hour written papers on anatomy, physiology, nutrition, psychology, breeding and youngstock; and an original horse psychology paper.
BHS Training
Early training was with a BHSI & examiner in Scotland.
My hobbies include housework and tack-cleaning, but I rarely get around to them, being much too busy riding horses, teaching and enjoying life. :-)
