A busy week with some early starts! Luna obviously was feeling it! 😴

An early start to take a precious showing pony to the New Forest Show - a first for the EVIPs lorry. Impressed by all the extra effort take by the New Forest show team in ensuring it was a safe event with the recent equine flu outbreak ❤️

Giving a helping hand for friend/client with juggling taking both her 2 horses to a clinic - oh dressage horses are SO emotional! 👑👑

Clients horses schooled and my own horses progressing with their training ❤️ Looking forward to getting VIP out this month (no
body tell him!!!) 🙌

I was so happy to hear yesterday that one of my coaching clients totally smashed her debut dressage test on her new horse, who I also ride for her whilst she’s at school. A lovely ridden test, rewarded with getting a rosette and a ticket to the championship at Hickstead! 🏅🏅
This news truly made my week!

My Marathon training has upped a gear with the long runs starting - it’s now normal to run longer that a half marathon at the weekend 🫣 Then go and ride the horses of course….

Looking forward to August with lots of exciting things in the diary!

🦄Hickstead Masters, Premier League & CDI 🦄

I was very proud of VIP on day one, where we produced a good test qualifying for the music the next day. It was special to have my dad, 101-year-old grandma and Hamish 🐮 there to support me. ❤️

Unfortunately, during the freestyle, tension crept in, impacting our score, and day three proved similarly challenging.

It’s difficult when shows do not fully reflect the hard work being done at home, but it’s all good experience.

With it also being Mental Health Awareness Week, it felt especially relevant as May is an emotional month for me, with a lot going on behind the scenes. Sometimes showing up is an achievement in itself which isn’t necessarily translated in the score. 💕

Alongside my own riding, I also showgroomed in the CDI for two lovely horses, (and plaited up some others) both of whom achieved excellent results. 🙌 It was so great to see a couple of my other showgrooming clients competing in the CDI achieving fab results also! So so pleased for them 🥳

It was also fantastic to see both of my trainers, .equestrian and win their respective classes. 🔥

I’m incredibly grateful to be surrounded by such supportive and knowledgeable people, and lovely clients 💕

Wow what a busy 2 weeks! 😅
A total of 22 times plaiting up!! 🪡

Firstly VIP did his first music class in 4 years 😱 We had so much fun with our new E.L.O and Beatles PSG music (thank you Claire.) 🎶

Then off to the Winter Championships for 6 days looking after 4 lovely horses, and transporting 1. All getting fab results with some prize givings 🏆

A few days away from Addington, spent riding, clipping and teaching!

Then return to Addington for the Premier League for 3 days where I had 3 clients and 4 horses with 3 horses in the same classes! 😵‍💫 It took some serious planning on my part! Again all getting great results and some prize givings 🦄

Then a quick turn around yesterday to go and run the 10km at the UK trail running festival at St.Giles with my Dad. 🏃‍♀️ My first 10km trail and only missing my PB by 1min, set earlier in the week on road, so very pleased!

Now for a slightly less hectic couple of weeks before Hickstead 💪

Unfortunately with the increase in diesel prices I am forced to increase my mileage charge, with immediate effect.
I am hoping, as we all are, this will be a temporary change, until prices start to fall.
Car and lorry mileage will increase by 20p/mile.

It’s been a busy start to the year, so I’ve been a bit quiet on my socials recently! And not taken many photos!

🏆 Show grooming at British Dressage Regionals and Area Festivals with clients getting some direct qualifications and wild card worthy scores
✂️ Many many clips and tidy ups as we come out the other side of winter - hopefully 🤞
🚛 Horses transported around the country to new homes, clinics and shows
🐴 Horses schooled for clients
👩‍🏫 Lessons taught - clients showing so much progress over the last few months
👩‍⚖️ Judging some lovely combinations.

Amongst this - VIP went out and did his first PSG, since Wellington CDI, which he thoroughly enjoyed! Looking forward to the season ahead with Mr Perfect 🤩
Livvie continues to train on and hoping to show all our hard winter training off in the white boards in the Spring. 💁‍♀️

I’ve started running again 😅 If you didn’t know, I was a keen runner having completed the Paris 🇫🇷 and New York 🇺🇸 Marathon, before injury.
I will be running the Berlin 🇩🇪 Marathon at the end of September for Marie Curie 💛 so if I’m walking funny before (and indeed after!), you will know why!
I also managed to squeeze a break to the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Highlands for some R&R and now ready to crack on! 💪

Look forward to seeing you all over the coming weeks, in hopefully drier and sunnier weather! 🌻🌵☀️

It’s been a busy few weeks with the Area Festival Championships, local shows with clients, riding clients horses, clipping season has started!, coaching, training and competing VIP and Livvie ✨ Whilst fitting in a couple of relaxing days spent with my godmother who was over from the U.S.A 🥰

It’s definitely had its up and downs personally - but am feeling very gratefully to have such lovely clients, friends and two happy horses 😊❤️

I am away this week on holiday but back to work Sunday. I have very limited availability week commencing the 20th.

Please make sure you book in for your second clips sooner rather than later to avoid disappointment.
