Sharing My Experience & Love of Horses

All the teaching the children will receive is based on the Pony Club Association of Australia system of horsemastership and rider training.

I’m a product of the pony club system and lead a totally horse immersed life for longer than I can remember. I loved competition especially in eventing, dressage and show jumping. Making my way up the pony club ranks, I won at grade 1 level state Championship in eventing and from there I sucessfully competed in open adult competition for many years including the Australian National Three Day Event Championships in QLD.

In my young adult years I enjoyed teaching and training the little kids at Wyena Pony Club in Warranwood and would bring fun activities into the lessons. It was so rewarding seeing these kids on their ponies thrive and improve. Leading them through the horsemastership certificates was also integral to their improvement. I love to share my knowledge with the next generation of kids, placing safe handling and safety around ponies top on the list.
