Balanced beings equine COACHING

Hello let me introduce myself.  My name is Anna, and I am an Equine BHS Professional Accredited Riding Coach. I am also a Mum to my two amazing children and a big animal lover. My passion is about the wellbeing of other humans and their horses, helping humans and horses be the best version of themselves no matter who they are.

Since the day I arrived here in my unique form 44 years ago, I have a story, many in fact, and I could tell you them all. However, I do not think it is necessarily all about the story, more about making possible changes within your life to be better than you were yesterday. We are not the same, we are all unique and have our own blueprint, and our own stories, and so do the horses. 

My role as a coach is to help you and your horse to navigate your way to being the best version of yourselves and grow together and  create a true partnership, based around TRUST, BALANCE and HARMONY thorough a kind and authentic approach. 

I used to lack confidence, trust and felt broken inside myself, I knew I was not leading my best life, and did I really want that? Something had to change but I was not aware, fully conscious of what I was creating. I now know the horses had given me so many lessons and things to learn along the way. They were trying their best to show me, however at the time I didn't always choose to listen but am grateful for them as this is why I am doing what I am doing now and realise this was my pathway to get me where I am today as a coach.

When my marriage broke down this was my turning point, to go within and start to listen to my inner self that was not being heard and the path of re discovery has been utterly amazing. Through exploring myself, which is continuing, I have grown some more. The road has not been smooth, it has had its bumps along the way, and the reality is, this is life, it has its obstacles, things happen and if we choose too see them as obstacles we can become stuck. I now choose not to, my motto is "there is always a way!"

After completing an ILM 5 coaching and mentoring qualification 3 years ago alongside an equine facilitated programme, it gave me  more tools to my tool kit, to continue helping humans and horses. We have the answers inside and my job as a coach is to help you find your own answers and become a more balanced individual which will in turn help your horse, by becoming the best partner your horse could ask for.

Understanding life from the horse's perspective and not just from ours is a key to being able to fully connect with our equine partners. By NOT treating the horse as one of us and we learn to see the world from their eyes we can grow together and be the leader our horses need us to be. Not one lead by force or fear.

Horses are amazing beings, they can teach us so much about ourselves too, however there is a difference between those that go on and develop happy and connected relationships with their horse and those who become stuck in their relationships with their horse and then often change horse or give up. We must remember our WHY to having horses in the first place, and for me its about the love and passion for these amazing sentient beings and my want to help shape a better future within the equine industry.

It is important to have a good team around for our horses, these will include farriers, vets, saddlers, chiropractors, etc and we invest a lot of time and money into our horses, so why would you not invest in the other half of the team YOURSELF.  It is just as important we invest in ourselves too with the right coach for you and your horse.

So, if you are in need of a coach that can help you and your horse overcome some obstacles or problems and you want to learn new things, then please take a look at what I have on offer to help you with your equine journey.

Learning is how we grow and become the best version of ourselves, after all we only know what we know !
