Joe is based at Windrush, Elkstone. A yard which offers fantastic training facilities including both indoor and outdoor arenas with top quality surfaces. 30x60 outdoor with Equestrian surfaces surface and 20x 40 indoor with Martin Collins surface and full led lighting.
Most training sessions are run on an individual or semi private basis to allow each session to have maximum benefit. Joe holds training sessions across Gloucestershire and the surrounding counties on a weekly basis. Many of the training sessions are held at competition venues, round a full course of fences with fillers looking at various aspects of course riding. These sessions allow the rider to warm up and ride round the full course as they would at a show or have the option to focus on a more specific issue if necessary.
There are also several gridwork session every month which are available from basic trotting poles to work on rhythm, balance and straightness or simple exercises for young horses to help introduce them to jumping. Also ideal for the more experienced horse/ rider to work on improving the horses jumping technique and increasing suppleness and gymnastic ability as well as the riders position.
Joe's aim is to enhance the skill set of each rider while offering a quiet but effective training style...while it may seem comforting at the time to be constantly talked through working your horse it can often leave the rider feeling rather lost whilst having to make their own decisions during competitions. Joe is regularly available at both BS shows and BE events to help walk and discuss the course as well as in the warm up to offer that extra pair of eyes to ensure you have the best preparation before going into the arena at a show.
Training is £40 (individual) and £30 per person in a shared session (excluding venue hire and travel where applicable).
