About Toni

Since the age of 23 when I discovered an unexpected passion and affinity for coaching, I have spent my life dedicated to learning how I can become a great coach for equestrian riders.

ENJOYMENT - SAFETY - SUCCESS

These are the aims of my coaching. I want riders to not only achieve their goals but exceed their expectations of themselves. In doing this I also want to make learning fun and interactive and teach riders how to enjoy their horses and their sport, as well as providing them with the skills and knowledge to ride safely and cope with unforeseen situations.

I coach and mentor riders of all ages and abilities from highly competitive FEI Level Eventing and Showjumping riders, to Pony Club rallies, to adults returning to riding and wanting to gain a bit more confidence.

I provide a holistic approach to coaching riders. Often if a rider is experiencing behavioural issues with their horse it can be related to feed, workload, soreness, fitness or a missing component in their training programme. I am interested in all these aspects of your riding, so I can help you maintain a happy healthy horse to ride.

I provide a number of services including private or group lessons at your place or mine, clinics nationwide, national team event coaching, re-schooling of horses, assessing suitability of a new potential purchase, horse management and nutrition advice, work experience and assessment of equine e-learning units, and coaching at events. I always try to make myself available so that I am only a phone call away for riders whenever they need or want some advice.
