6yo SB Elvis came a long way while he was here! We worked through some behavioural issues and improved his flatwork through establishing balance, softness & rhythm.

I’ve been enjoying continuing to help him & his rider progress together by coaching them since he went home! ⭐️

Finally trying to get caught up on some updates! I was lucky enough to have 2yo Gypsy Cob ‘Leo’ here last month for a couple weeks of foundational groundwork & to begin the process of being started ✏️

This cutie is a quick learner & handled everything I threw at him so well! From patience tying, bathing & desensitisation to body control, introducing tack & being ponied, he progressed quickly & we managed to get through a significant amount during his time here. 📈

Looking forward to seeing how he goes with his owner as he continues to grow up! So grateful for the opportunity to work with this little fella 🥰

Wishing all of my amazing clients a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Hope you all had a great Christmas with your loved ones. Thank you all so much for your ongoing support over 2024.

You all kept this little side gig of mine busy with 18 horses through for training including schooling, starting and sale on behalf. I’m so grateful to have the opportunity to work with your horses - thank you for trusting me with them.

Thank you to my long time & new students for choosing me to help you on your riding journeys. It’s so rewarding seeing the progress you all made & I loved watching your hard work pay off by seeing results out at events! So proud of you all for what you’ve achieved this year.

I’ll be busy traveling around NZ over the next few months competing in rodeos with my team of horses so my books will be closed until I am back & have time to get back into it. Spaces are filling up for the first half of the year so make sure you book in if you’ve been thinking about it!

Happy Holidays 🎄🎁🥂

It has been incredibly busy here over the past month and I am well behind on posting! Elvis has been coming along nicely - here are some photos from his first couple weeks.

We’ve been working on body control, softness & rhythm along with working through a bit of nappy behaviour. His canter is coming along so well - proud of this big fella! He will head home before Christmas.

Realised I hadn’t given my talented fencer (& other half) a shoutout for his amazing work done earlier this year! Totally love how this post & rail turned out & can’t wait to get the last section done (when I can convince him to squeeze me in 😆)

Been having a blast with my students! With Indy being injured, Doc has stepped up & has (unsurprisingly) been the ultimate teacher & the best boy 🌟

Here are some snaps of a few riders in recent lessons. I am so proud of how well everyone is progressing! 📈

This is why I do it 🥹 Precious moments yesterday when Kor officially joined her new family & headed home. One happy little girl with her new best friend! I can’t wait to watch the partnership between these two grow 🩷

Well I won’t be listing this little lady anymore because she has SOLD to an amazing new family! 🥰

New arrival Korina ‘Kor’ is here to find a new post code! 14yo 13.2hh Welsh x mare

I’ve been lucky enough to teach the last two riders on this pony & know what an awesome little mare she is.

Kor boasts an extensive resume including everything from farm hacking & stock work to successfully competing at rodeos & jackpots barrel racing & pole bending. This little lady also loves jumping & could do well in the show ring.

She is a special, much-loved pony who has taught several young riders & deserves the very best of homes. I’ll be getting her listing up soon! 🥰

Stella is the coolest little 3 year old! 🌟

She has been great to bring back into work & is such a fun, straightforward ride.

Can’t wait to see where this girl ends up. She has the talent to go far 🤩

Nova packed her bags & headed south to her new home today! 🧳

I’m going to miss having this sweet girl around. She was such a neat horse to work with but she is going to a wonderful home & has so many adventures ahead 🐴

Well this gorgeous girl SOLD to her first viewers yesterday after just one day on the market 🎉

REHOMED

Presenting on Behalf:
💫 Meersbrook Supernova 💫

4yo 15.1hh NZ Sport Horse Mare
Meersbrook Iced Ripples x TB mare out of Raise the Flag

Nova is a sweet, intelligent, no-nonsense mare with talent to burn. She is athletic, willing to please & very easy to have around. She has good ground manners & is a level-headed & quiet mare - no sass or spice even after rest days. She is an exciting prospect who’s ready for someone to produce her to take her up the ranks! Up to date with farrier & dentist.

Nova has developed three balanced, even paces, smooth transitions & is soft off aids. She is honest, a lovely mover & is starting to carry herself nicely. Nova has a very trainable nature with no dirt. She’s been introduced to jumping & seems to really enjoy it! She is gaining confidence & has been taking herself to the fences. Nova happily hacks out on the buckle & is fine to take away from others.

I could see her enjoying being on the hunt field or having success show jumping or eventing. Being young & green, she will progress best with an experienced rider.

⭐️ Presenting on Behalf: Stella ⭐️

3yo Quarter Horse mare
Currently 13.2hh, est. to mature ~14hh
Enzed Chisum (Imp) x Durasan
Not yet registered but this can be done by the new owner.

Stella is a smart, willing & athletic cutting-bred mare who has potential to succeed in several disciplines. I imagine her doing well in games, western disciplines, or as a PC mount. She’s just been brought back into work after being turned out & hasn’t missed a beat! She is a dream to have around & straightforward to ride.

Stella has three balanced paces & smooth transitions with a great natural stop - she can stop & turn on a dime! She has body control established, a soft mouth & is responsive to voice, seat & leg aids. She’s an easy keeper, has good ground manners & is up to date with farrier & dentist. Stella happily hacks out on a loose rein & is quiet with no dirt.

Stella will be the perfect horse for a junior or small adult to take on to produce. Being young she will benefit from an experienced rider. This mare has the talent to go far in the right hands! For reference, rider in photos is 5’7.

I can see Song in the rodeo arena taking a junior around the barrel pattern then backing in the chute to rope some calves 🐮 She has such a quiet, willing & trainable nature. Not much seems to phase her & she’s happy to try her hand at anything ✔️ Safe & sensible package deals with great QH breeding like this don’t come up very often!!

Song under saddle 🎶 Her listing is now live! 🤩

Sneak peak of some exciting new developments happening here this week 🤩 B.B. Contract Fencing Ltd doing an incredible job! Lucky I know an amazing fencer 😉
