Warmup with Barney - Thoroughbred - Smithers BC

I rode horses for over twenty years and coached professionally for fourteen of them. In pursuit of attaining higher levels of equestrian riding and coaching skills I ventured out from Smithers to Ontario. (London and then Toronto)

Coaching at Kilbyrne Stables - London ON

Back to Vancouver BC in 1999 my journey changed direction to follow an Internet business building path. Riding and coaching activities were placed on hold.

The next twenty years were spent learning "life" skills, building websites, marketing alternative health products, managing staff and servicing customer needs.

Through a series of circumstances, I find myself living once again in the Bulkley Valley and have the opportunity to rekindle a connection with horses. An unintentional full circle.

Lunging Pik - Campbell River BC

A huge thank you to all my current students, for taking a leap of faith. I am truly humbled for the trust you have in my approach to riding.

Coaching Black's Equestrian - Hamilton ON

I am not sure what took place in the gap of time away from riding, but I now "see" and "feel" so much more from the horses and riders expression and movements. I believe I now offer more depth, compassion, patience and understanding to seasoned and blossoming equestrian riders.

Schooling 'Brodie' Danish Warmblood - Welland ON

I can't promise first place ribbons at competitions, "fix" a hard core problem horse, nor take you to the highest levels, but I think I can help broaden your understanding of your horses motion, actions and reactions and improve your riding skills, technically and creatively.
