A word from Jess…
“I’ve been lucky enough to train full time in many different systems in some of the top dressage stables across the world including Germany, the Netherlands, England and Denmark. All of these systems taught me that it’s important to be adaptive as different horse/ rider combinations have unique behavioural/ physical issues and therefore, need different approaches. I believe the number one thing that always applies is a positive training approach. The horse that wants to do the job is always going to produce far superior work than the one being forced. I enjoy teaching anyone that wants to learn and have coached extensively across Europe and Australia, from Pony Club Camps to clinics with professional riders. I love supporting my students on their dressage journey so feel free to reach out. Happy Riding!
