Michelle Bogaard Equestrian Equine Education | Rider Coaching

Equine education facility where horses stay for as long as needed for their mind, spirit and bodies to become healthy and to find out what tickles their fancy - whether it be trekking, show jumping, polo, hunting, or ladies pleasure hack. All horses are taught to be safe in traffic, self load into the truck, lead off others and to lead other horses (and sometimes the dogs when they visit the neigh

bours) as a basic foundation and from there will start schooling to find their natural talents. Situated on 16 acres of rolling terrain, 60 X 40m all weather arena with show jumps, access to 100acre sheep farm for added fitness work these horses get to experience what life can be like when treated with respect and kindness

Extremely rewarding to be achieving a horses' "firsts" - from their first human sit through to their first canter and now first set of jumps 🫶

A rather chaotic week heading to Christchurch for a new truck ended in disaster at taupo when the clutch left the chat 😬 thankfully my delightful brother came to the rescue to bring the newest addition to the team home 😍 Bella was an absolute delight to bring up from Oamaru, even when everything went wrong! She will be spending the winter going exploring and slowly being started

On a mission to post more!
Alice and Gemma got to go do some very un-dressage stuff at Totara Park yesterday supporting their training day. Proof that yes, you can jump in dressage saddles

Last weekend we got to have a play at the fantastic Massey Pony Club grounds. My goodness their range of jumps are super and we will definitely be back!

Aoibhinn had the ride on Mags practicing the 95 and 105 combinations - which of course, maggie flew over 😍

Neville had me aboard learning how to keep thinking about what comes next 🤦‍♀️ he's in the teenager phase of "look what I can do" then is too busy patting himself on the back to realize there's actually more to the job - made for some rather interesting lines at times! But OMG his JUMP! Such a divine feeling over a fence, careful and scopey

I think it's time to find both ponies riders who wants to do more jumping

Our long awaited for little man has arrived, born 2am yesterday to mumma Roh - look at those legs!!! Two proud mums 🥰
