DISCOVER YOUR POTENTIAL
Maybe you will find the way with Debbie's help. She has been teaching for over 20 years and is an
experienced rider and trainer. Her combined knowledge of body awareness skills and Classical
Dressage training enables riders to get their horses working correctly and, most importantly,
produces comfortable horses who are happy to work. Any shape, size or model, she has no prejudice and
finds the best in them all.
"Debbie's compassion and empathy for all horses shines through in her teaching and brings real results.
My horse is an ex- racehorse and with Debbie's support and encouragement we have learnt
a correct way of going, grown in confidence and are having fun in our riding again"
- Lyn Danaher
Debbie freelances mainly in Surrey teaching people on their own horses. She also gives lessons on a riding
simulator to riders of all levels.
"My lesson on the simulator was far more beneficial than I thought possible. Debbie's knowledge of Alexander
Technique brings more depth and understanding to the lesson. I was really amazed at the changes that I've
made in just one session and it's made a big difference to my horse for the better. I can't wait for my next one! "

Debbie lives in Cranleigh,
Surrey and is a freelance trainer specialising in dressage,
be it remedial, for pleasure or serious competition.
She enjoys working with all types of horses
and although she has successfully shown pure bred Arabs and
part-bred Andalucians for clients, her preferred discipline
is dressage, where she has successfully competed up to Advanced
Medium Level.

She is totally professional in all aspects of her
work and is highly respected. Furthermore, she has immeasurable
knowledge and understanding of horses and is always available if
you need advice.
Although I have only known her for a year, I recognise
something in her which is very special. Her rapport with horses
is amazing and they readily respond to her innate quiet authority:
force and domination are not her style. She rides with such acute
sensitivity and empathy that she can detect the slightest unsoundness:
accordingly, I trust her utterly with my horse, whom she both schools
and competes for me, and he is singularly devoted to her.

Debbie combines classical training methods with
modern thoughts on body awareness. She teaches riders of all
standards in a sympathetic, yet firm manner, and has the patience
of a saint - she needs it ! Her aim is to get the best out
of both rider and the horses simultaneously but is relaxed
enough to recognise any effort in that direction. She wants
you to improve and succeed.
She is a very warm, caring person with the best
interests of everyone at heart. She is totally honest and
straightforward and, despite her success in dressage and showing,
she remains modest and very well-liked.
