Karen is also successfully competing at Medium level
Dressage and hopes that her current horse Bartok II will be ready to
compete at Advanced Medium very soon. She takes pride in the fact that
she has successfully started, schooled, and competed on many different
types of horses; from Arabs and Thoughbreds, to Warmbloods and Shires to
the wonderful cobs and native ponies, she enjoys the variety and their
different personalities.

Over the past few years Karen has been very inspired to study
new ideas and methods; particularly Monty Roberts Techniques,
equine ethology and horse psychology. To complement this she is
now an approved 'Ride with your Mind' Coach. Karen has found
these new areas very helpful to allow her to grow in the areas
of horsemanship that she is passionate about. Allowing the horse
to be a horse, understanding why his behaviour is as it is and
developing a positive, empathic, calm and trusting relationship
between the horse and rider. Karen offers a professional,
helpful, enthusiastic, positive, non judgmental service.
She is happy to teach 'riding to enhance you and your horses'
partnership and performance, also ground work for any age of
horse or pony to build a greater bond and increases confidence
or to overcome a particular problem.
Finally, Karen is happy to teach private or group lessons
and is available for clinics and lectures.
