At the age of nine, my ambition in life was to be a jockey, so I learnt to ride at my local riding stables. At age 15, I joined a racing yard, as apprentice jockey, but what with manure and hormones, I grew too big. Life took it's twists and turns, until experiencing life in America on a ranch, I returned to England to escort riders through Windsor Great Park, showing other riders a more sympathetic way of riding. My interest for kinder and gentler interaction with horses grew and grew, and after nine years of study and hands on experience, I am now, developing my unique method known as Chiron Horsemanship.
To start, I endeavour to establish a spiritual and emotional connection with your horse and you, to create a relaxed and trusting atmosphere. A horse is unable to learn if he is in a state of stress, (neither is the owner). I will teach your horse to be trusting, light and responsive, and show you how to give the commands and gain respect, with progressive lightness and finesse. Whether you ride Western or English, my methods will help you to build and retain your partnership with your horse. See Ted's story !
