HeartHorse Dressage What does your horsey relationship need to glow up? Mentoring for the Horse Friendly Dressage rider

Canadian Paralympian Dressage rider/ coach/ mentor living in the UK. Training horses and riders based on the principles of the horse friendly Classical German system. With this approach I have trained my own horses to be FEI number 5 in the World rankings, two Paralympic Games, two World Games and numerous international wins. My riders have won internationally, competed at the Paralympics and been

on able bodied dressage teams. BUT I'm not all about top sport - I help numerous grassroots and riding club riders enjoy their horses more whether they want a better partnership or competition success.

🏆🌟Being a successful professional athlete is more than looking like an athlete- it's having the technical skills to skills, the mental skills, the drive and developing your village.

🏆It's how you show up everyday, it's a lifestyle, what you do when you feel unmotivated

🏆It's about being aligned with your ambitions

🏆You don't have to look like an IG influencer, you have to develop yourself, do the work and keep going.

🏆In the end, it's about who you are when no one's watching

And I mentor these skills to developing athletes around the world- DM me to work together

On this International Day of Persons with Disabilities, I’m celebrating the incredible spectrum of human diversity that strengthens our world — including the dimensions of disability that emerge and evolve over time.

I wasn’t born disabled. Rheumatoid Arthritis entered my life when I was a teenager — a time when most people are just beginning to imagine who they’ll become, excited to look to the future. For me, those years were shaped by pain, uncertainty, fear and the slow realisation that my life would look different from what I once expected.

Through those years I learned resilience, adaptability, and courage. Learning to live with a disability wasn’t a single turning point — it was a twisted journey, one that continues to teach me what strength and acceptance truly mean.

As a proud three-time Canadian Paralympic rider, I carry that journey with me every day; every ride, every training and every trip down the centreline. Para-equestrian sport gave me the space to grow, to embrace my evolving abilities, and to prove — to myself most of all — that disability is not an ending. It’s a different path, not without its own challenges.

And I'm forever grateful to the people that support me, the village behind our success. All elite athletes are backed by an incredible team and mine are The Best. I couldn't do this adventure without them.

To those who, like me, developed a disability in youth or later in life: your story matters. Your adaptation matters. And your dreams are still possible — they’re powerful.

Proud to represent Canada, proud to be part of the Paralympic movement, and proud to honour all the dimensions of human diversity that disability brings to our world. 🇨🇦
