I am taking bookings again for clinics in the UK, so do contact me if you would like me to come to your yard or venue of your choice.
I teach all levels, including ridden, lungeing and in-hand work, specialising on the relationship between horse and rider, building trust and confidence.
Just drop me an email with your requirements, and I can work out the details with you.
Here is a short video of Norman schooling himself. Undulating ground adds to fitness and balance, so if you do not have a sand school, good old-fashioned grass is fine. Just check the footing is not slippery first. Working without a lunge line, in a secure place, helps you to develop communication with your body language and voice.
Out-take Claire Lilley talking about her latest book. Is it wise to be interviewed by your husband? Dougald and I laughed so much at the out takes we thought we would share this one with you!

Perdido and I ventured off to the South West Iberian Show recently. He is such a cool dude, and really looked after me. So many new experiences to tackle for us!
We both had a lovely time, having not been to any shows since last year.
He coped really well with the environment, and did not bat an eyelid at anything.
We came fifth in the in-hand PRE stallions, third in ridden PRE stallion, and won first place at the Friday evening Parade class. This was our first outing in our Spanish gear, so very exciting!
