Lessons

At Dutchfield Farm I follow the principles of classical riding.
In my lessons I stand for teamwork between horse and rider. I will teach you not just knowing how to ride, but will give you all round knowledge of the horse as a species.
This will open the lines of communication between horse and rider, of being very aware of how every move you make means something to the horse, of first being able to ask yourself “what did I do that made the horse do that?” when you don’t get the response you were looking for. My lessons are nothing about “making him do it”, it’s about teamwork.
I believe that the essence of great teamwork is great communication and this becomes even more critical when part of the team has four legs and doesn’t speak English!

Advanced rider, beginner, child, youngster and adult, everyone can learn this communication and I welcome them all as students at Dutchfield Farm.

 

My 10 year old Friesian gelding Z-Boy is available as a great lesson horse.

Not like that”, said Z-Boy, with a gentle nudge of his nose. “I’ll help you with the bridle if

you just hold it steady”.
