I have dedicated my life to horses, as a young horse rider, all I wanted to do was work with horses. This dream became a reality and I have been lucky enough during my career to breed and train my horses to Grand Prix, represent my country and now share my wealth of knowledge and it is a privilege to do so. :)

    What an amazing chance to improve your skills on a graceful responsive horse with classical training, and Leanne's guidance was both insightful and encouraging. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for the graceful movements on a well-trained horse.

    It was an unforgettable experience. I met many new friends and acquired valuable skills. My accommodation had a picturesque view and was ideal for a solo stay. Loved my time and cant wait to sign up for the next trip. Ps, they have friendly farm cats and dogs that enjoy visitors. Sebastian almost ended up coming home with me 🫣
