What a dreadful run of weather for everyone! Luckily Calmsden ODE went ahead and wanted to post this lovely photo of Jess Tishall with "Star". They jumped a fab double clear around the BE 90 not easy at only 14h!
Also wanted to mention Lily Sweet and her lovely horse "Bob" . Again months of hard work through the wet winter , only to have the events entered cancelled , so we set off to Rectory Farm , Combined Training and Lily won the 2 star with a great dressage score of over 72% and one of only 2 clears sj!! Well done to her and loads to look forward to.
Sally Billings has kept up her winning ways in BD Novice , Elementary with her lovely mare'Dolly". Also her new ride who had not competed before has now been out in Prelim and won with really high scores.
I am really looking forward to the coming season if this is anything to go by.
Good luck to everyone!

About time I posted an update! Feel very with the dedicated students I have to teach.
We have focused hard on training thru the winter. So far only 2 have been out to compete...the others focused on training.
So we'll done to Sally ,again, stepped out to win her BD novices' and has progressed to Elementary and won at first attempt with a score over 67%, brilliant!
Lily has worked hard with me all winter, took my advice ,no jumping untill our canter improved! Great news, 2 lovely jump lessons and then comp on Sunday at Cherwell , where they finished 2nd with a lovely double clear! This all looks good for the coming season.
Also we'll done to Lily, sailing through her BHS Stage 3, we worked hard. Also Natalie passing stage 3 care. I have 2 other ladies, one going for stage 3 and one for stage 2. I am sure they will do well , as every week I see them, they improve!
I have high hopes for the coming season, exams included!
Well done everyone, correct training means happy horses, happy riders and great results 👍

Just a thought.....all training going well! I love Autumn and Winter, not the weather, but such a chance to concentrate on our training ready for next season!
But it has come to my notice, as at the moment I have 3 lovely ladies training for their BHS Stages, one at Stage 2 and two at Stage 3.
It seems difficult to get good sound training for some of the sections within the stages. If anyone reads this and needs help with various topics in the syllabus, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Or pass this on to someone who may need some extra help. My number 07979 607139.
I am able to sign off, but obviously will only do this if satisfied with your standard.
Have posted this as know exams are on all times of the year, but seems to be several in next couple of months. So if anyone out there needs some extra help, I am happy to do so. Amanda.

I thought it was time for an update. I have had such a brilliant time with my students this season!
Results have been super. Sally qualified for the BD National Champs, first time of trying. Absolutely brilliant result at the champs finished in the top half only 4% behind the winner. Yesterday we had a score of over 71% in a BD Novice. Also I have 3 lovely ladies all working towards BHS stages and so far all passes in stage 1 and 2 and training on to stage 3, so well done them !!
My youngest student, Jamie 12yrs, drives!! Teaching is the same as riding and we have made huge progress. He competed at The Driving National Champs, which he had to qualify for. Did so well in all 3 phases, hence the photo of the x country phase.
Well done to everyone and I have loved training them all. Happy training, Amanda.

I am posting as a very proud trainer! All lessons going really well. I have a new student that has a lovely big cob. She competes locally in dressage and ODE. Already after just several lessons has been out and won a combined training 👍.
I was so appreciative of the message I received after only 4 lessons." Thank you Amanda. I love our lessons xx"
So nice to receive a message off the cuff like that.
Sally continues to do brilliantly, 70+% score posted again BD Novice. Area Festival and Regional Finals to look forward to now.
Jamie my driving competitor continues to improve with his dressage. So much so he won his class at Windsor on the weekend!! Posted a good dressage, and as a result of the training his cones and marathon were better.
So its onwards and upwards for all of us. Happy horses everyone. Amanda.

We are getting there!

Its been a while so thought it was time for a round up!
Sadly still have 3 out of action but everyone else going great guns! Well done to Sally and "Dolly " who have qualified for Prelim Regional Final and Novice Area Festival. Aiming for Novice Regionals so has some comps lined up. Will keep you posted.
Have recently started 2 new students, a lovely cob and my youngest pupil 12yr old Jamie who is a keen driver!
I am helping him with his driving dressage and we have made huge improvements in several lessons, so look forward to his next comp in a couple of weeks.
Ali and her lovely cob Lexi have been doing their homework and though it's only been 3 lessons went out and won their Combined Training at Rectory Farm!!
Well done to all from a very trainer.

Lovely result at the weekend. Sally and" Dolly " competing at the National Dressage Championships in the Combined Training Class. Novice test ,90cm course. They finished 8th, good test and a clear round. They finished 8th out of I think 42 starters from all over the UK.
Lovely to have a student in the top ten at a Nationals again.
Hope to have several more at The Championships next year if we can have some sound horses !!🐎🐴

So pleased to pick up the Horse and Hound yesterday and find a write up about one of my pupils. Thrilled.

I had a lovely couple of days over Easter. For those of you that have never been to the Lambourn Open Day on Good Friday, put it in the diary for next year.
I have always been busy teaching but helped my husband and his team at Windmill Farm last year and this. It's a great day and we had people from Scotland, Cheshire, Essex.
Then when the yards close there is plenty to see on the main field in Lambourn!
To top my weekend off, another high scoring result for one of my pupils.
Her third Prelim only and a score of over 68%. Brilliant result. Happy training, Amanda.

PS Forgot to mention, great news that BD have reinstated their Combined Training Championship. Sally also finished 2nd in the qualifier with a novice score over 69% and clear round in the 90cm.
Anymore that would love to improve scores and jumping I would love to hear from you! Happy horses, Happy training 😁

Lovely start to the season. Sally and "Dolly" have been going great guns, just proves what correct training of horse and rider does! She had fab scores in Prelims and her last Prelim won with over 75% !! We then said time to step up to Novice, so first BD Novice on the weekend and a win with over 73%. What a result and lovely to see as Sally has her regular training and really does her homework so a lovely team effort 👍👍
I have to mention Tamsyn as well, who came to me with many challenges with her beautiful little horse. Its been hard work but Tamsyn never faulted, regular lessons, all her homework and against all the odds the pair did their first competition, Prelim and finished 2nd with score of over 67%. Fantastic achievement!

Happy New Year to one and all. Not a great start with the weather and so many of us ,including me have had this awful virus. So let's hope when we all get going it will be a super year!
So far this year only one student out competing but lovely to see correct training being rewarded!!
Sally and ^Dolly" have competed in their first affiliated dressage and have won all 4 classes of Preliminary with scores just over 69% to just over 70% . I am thrilled.
Looking forward to my other students following on in those hooves ! Amanda.

Sarah going well!!

I have had a lovely time training my clients . Although I only have 3 that have been competing, the improvement ( although I say so myself) has been wonderful!
Sarah and her project horse, with all his problems, finished the season with a fantastic dressage score at Wellington HT and lovely show jumping and then a stonking clear x country BE Novice. Followed it up with a double clear at Aston Le Walls and a placing. So well done to her.
Emma and our little connamara...I have put a before and after pic on previously, made it to Cherwell and against some lovely horses posted a score of plus 67% even with an error. So onwards and upwards for her.
Sally I have only been teaching for 6 months and she was already a very accomplished rider, but her scores on her youngster were low 60%. After just this short time ,she won her last Prelim plus 72% and her first Novice plus 68%....
Well done Sally, also took the youngster to her first event, Cotswold Cup, 90cm and finished 11th.
Very thrilled with all my people but the 3 above have done brilliantly!!

We have said goodbye to our wonderful Queen. What an incredible lady. GIRL POWER at its ABSOLUTE BEST !!!
