Testimonials -
Since having lessons with Dawn she's given me the tools to actually be able to ride my horse and give me and him the confidence to be able to work without reacting. Dawn has taught me things to look for in his ridden behaviour and tools to manage if things go wrong. Our confidence as a partnership has really developed and I'm looking forward to the future with him. Ella
I started working with dawn in early 2023 with my 21 year old ginger plonker. I have owned him for seven years and although I managed to fix a lot of the issues he came with I was still struggling to get the best out of him. He is a beautiful mover and a lovely soul, but I rarely felt confident enough to take him out competing due to his anxiety and spooking the way he would behave in any situation he was uncomfortable with what I have been doing with Dawn has been transformational for him and myself. He is still a work in progress but we are very much going in the right direction. I can now get his attention back to me pretty quickly and avert any major explosions of fear running away spooking. I've had to learn so much patience and spent probably the first two months not even going out of walk!. I have loved every second of it. I continue to do weekly lessons either ridden or groundwork and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future as I said we're still a work in progress. Last month however I decided to put the training to date to the test, and went out and did two dressage tests scoring 62% in both with a horse showing much less tension than previously.
