Every horse is an individual and therefore we start each horse depending on its particular character and needs. Starting is done with sympathy and kindness, using patience and repetition to ensure a stress free learning process. Usually this can take from 6 to 10 weeks depending on the horse. Starting involves a great deal of handling to build up a mutual trust and bond with your horse. Your horse will return home able to walk, trot and canter and jump a small fence. For customers who live further alfield we can provide a video diary to keep you up to date with progress. Price includes any lessons you should have on your horse.

We positively encourage horse and owner sessions towards the end of retraining to build confidence and inspire partnership through trust. This is included in the retraining fee. We will provide video updates for customers who live too far away to visit easily. Should your horses problems stem from dentistry or muscular problems, we will arrange for these to be dealt with at additional cost if you should wish. Cost £150 per week.
In May 2020 we bought an unbroken 4 year old called Edgedale Traveler and to explain our breaking/backing service we decided to make a video diary of the process. I hope you find it useful but please don't try this at home if you are not experienced. Much of what I do relies on my knowledge and experience and my ability to read the situation and recognise signals the horse is giving me.
