“Christina’s yard is not only pretty, but very friendly and professionally run. She looked after my young horse and brought him on beautifully last winter. Christina is a lovely person and I have no hesitation to recommend her to be of benefit to both horse and rider!”

“Christina is a very hard worker and while at Talland schooled our young horses, and competed her own horse at medium level, she teaches with real qualities, has an excellent eye and shows real feel.”

“I have worked with Christina and a variety of her horses during the last few years.
She is a talented rider who rides with feel and knowledge to gain improvement from each individual horse she works with. She works with attention to detail both on and off the horse - making sure that each animal is treated as an individual.”
“I enjoy my association with Christina and hope to continue to help her in the future. I am more than happy to recommend her as a Rider and Trainer.”

Sisko is a 5.6 year old Appaloosa gelding which I bought as a 4 year old last year. He is a very laid back character, but likes to think he is the boss sometimes and is lazy. His favourite pastime is eating and generally clowning around, which is fine if things are done on his terms, but when it comes to doing a bit of work the lazy streak rears its head. I worked with him at the DIY year he is stabled at to bring his training on, his previous owner had left him to do his own thing so you can understand why he questioned doing any work. I quickly realised the lack of facilities at his current yard and the fact I worked more or less full time was going to impact on my ability to bring him on without outside help. As I had worked at Christina's yard the previous winter I saw at first hand how caring she was with the horse in her charge.
I sent Sisko for two months training with Christina, under her excellent training programme Sisko improved. Christina worked on a few issues that I wanted improving and made a difference in his way of going and attitude. He is still only young and the work will continue but I have seen a big difference in him, which I put down to the excellence that is at the heart of how Christina trains and develops horses. I would recommend Christina to anyone wanting to bring on their horse.
