Mandy Probyn - Equine Connection

Mandy Probyn - Equine Connection Horsemanship Programmes helping owners connect with and train their own horses. Horses have been an enormous part of Mandy's life, with 40 years of experience.

Her hobby has become a full-time passion for the horse and sharing her knowledge with other horse owners. Mandy completed her Equine Coaching Certificate to conduct private lessons, which expanded to teaching Horsemanship Clinics. She firmly believes that "if you own a horse, you are a trainer" we owe it to our horses to be good leaders and teach them how to interact with their human partners. Believing it is not how tall or strong you are but how you work with these majestic animals. Mandy is only 4'11" tall; however, she is a giant compassionate leader moving their feet easily. Mandy is extremely passionate about helping women regain confidence lost due to aging or a negative experience. Through her Foundation Horsemanship Clinics, she teaches, or as she says, gives horse owners the tools to train their own horses. It was once said, "Frustration begins where Knowledge Ceases"… Mandy has found people become frustrated when their communication with their horse breaks down. Mandy empowers horse owners to feel more confident interacting with their horses, by providing the tools and knowledge to enable them to work with their horses, i.e. in the form of ground control and ridden exercises. Mandy also has a keen interest in Cowboy Dressage, endeavouring to spread the word about this fast-growing horse sport. Mandy loves the discipline and training behind the dressage but is a true Cowgirl enjoying her western saddle and fully embraces the' Cowgirl Way of Life." Mandy also has a passion for Community and Youth work so in 2023 will see her present Sue Spence Communications Horses Helping Humans programme. Mandy enjoys talking to other horse owners and helping where she can so please contact her if you have a question or enquiry into holding a clinic in your local area. Qualifications:

🌟 Judge’s Try Award – Sponsored by Vivienne Teuwsen 🌟

We are very lucky to have the Judge’s Try Award sponsored by Vivienne Teuwsen at our upcoming Cowboy Dressage Show.
And honestly, we couldn’t think of a more fitting award to have Vivienne’s name attached to.
Vivienne is one of those wonderful people who is always there supporting, encouraging and cheering others on. She understands that it’s not always about being the best on the day, sometimes the biggest achievement is simply getting out there, giving something a go and doing the best you can.

The Judge’s Try Award recognises exactly that, a competitor who catches the judge’s eye for their effort, perseverance and willingness to have a go.

A beautiful award, sponsored by a pretty special lady. ❤️🐴

Thank you, Vivienne Teuwsen, for supporting our Cowboy Dressage competitors and celebrating the spirit of having a go.

Artwork By Catherine Clark Dowden
Capturing the spirit & energy of animals...

Catherine is inspired by animals, the land and the stories woven through rural life. She strives to capture more than a likeness, she wants to convey the spirit, character, movement and emotion that make each subject unique.

Working predominantly in oils, she uses texture, light and movement to bring each moment to life. For Catherine, painting is a journey of discovery, storytelling and connection.

The possibilities are endless with art!
