For Horse owners

November Dates
Sun 9th at 12pm
Fri 21st at 11am
Sun 23rd at 1.30pm
Sun 30th at 1.30pm

Join us for Cake Club at Knightsplace EC ME2 3UB, where we will go for an hours hack, straight from the car park into beautiful woodland, then back for tea, coffee and cake.

The aim of Cake Club is to take time out from your busy lives, destress, enjoy your horse, meet new people, and, of course, eat cake!

Want to hack with a friend who's horseless at the moment, no problem. I can hire a licenced riding school horse for the hack for an extra £15.
£25 each Limited spaces

Please note that the hacking will be at walk, so it is not suitable for those who want to go fast.

Congratulations to clients Sarah, Mads, and Brenda, who all took part in an online dressage competition.

All of them had never tried or even considered dressage until I convinced them to have a go, and they even came away with rosettes 👏🎉

I think they are hooked 😉

A slightly damp and dreary Cake Club today, but that doesn't stop us 💪

Sheltered in the woods from the rain so we didn't get too wet. Then back for tea, coffee and cake 🍰

November dates out by Tuesday.

What a fantastic morning spent at Denne Hill Cross Country 🙌

My second Beginners Fun Cross Country Clinic today and a different venue.

Everyone supported and encouraged each other whilst having a go at different jumps and water 🙌

The best way to spend a Sunday morning ❤️

More photos and videos to follow.

Cake Club was perfect as normal yesterday morning 👌

It was a slightly smaller group than normal but that doesn't stop the laughter and chatter.

If your slightly nervous of hacking in a group or not sure how your horse would be. Then, this is the ideal thing for you and your horse. A gentle stroll with myself on foot followed by tea, coffee and cake 🍰

November dates will be released shortly.

A bitting consult for handsome boy Tom today 😍

A really dramatic change for this beautiful boy. A different bit made Tom more rideable. Then I wanted to see if the Quantum Bridle would add to this...

What a difference to the whole horse 🙌
More forwards, straighter, easier to ride, less fight, the list goes on!

Watch out for the before and after video 👀
