Are you curious about trying bitless but don't know where to start? 🐴💛

As a dedicated horse bit fitter and behaviourist—and someone who has been riding bitless for years—I’m thrilled to announce a new service to help you and your horse achieve greater comfort and connection.

🎉 Now Offering: Bitless Bridle Fittings 🎉

Explore a variety of bitless bridle types in a single session! This means you can find the perfect option for you and your horse before making a purchase.

✨ New: Bitless Noseband Fitting ✨

For those who want to explore bitless riding without committing to a full bridle fitting or purchasing a whole new bridle, this session is the perfect option. You’ll get to try a variety of bitless noseband styles—including side pulls, hackamores, and scawbrigs—that can be attached to your own bridle.

This session offers a flexible and affordable way to find what works best for you and your horse, without the need for a major investment. (Not suitable for Micklem or similar bridles)

✨ New: Bitless Taster Sessions ✨

You can now add a bitless taster session to your standard bit fitting appointment! These taster sessions let you try one or two bitless options that can be fitted to your current bridle, so you can experience how your horse responds without needing to invest upfront. (Not suitable for Micklem or similar bridles)

With years of experience riding bitless, I can guide you through the transition smoothly, offering support and advice to help you and your horse adjust with confidence. 🐎

📅 Book Your Appointment Today!
Spaces are limited, so get in touch to schedule your fitting or taster session.

Let’s work together to ensure your horse’s comfort and your peace of mind. ❤️

For the people who feel like they’re doing horses… differently

If you’ve ever sat there thinking
“this doesn’t feel right”… but been told to push through anyway, you’re not the only one.

If you’ve questioned advice, methods, or the way horses are spoken about… and felt like the odd one out for it, you’re not the only one.

And if you’ve looked at your horse and known, deep down, that their behaviour means something more than “naughty” or “difficult”… you’re exactly who I work with.

Because I don’t believe in training that overrides the horse to get results.

I work with behaviour as communication, not something to shut down, but something to understand.

Where more traditional approaches might focus on control, compliance, or “fixing” what you can see…
I focus on what’s underneath:
– The why behind your horse’s behaviour
– Their emotional state and nervous system
– Where things feel unsafe, confusing, or overwhelming for them
– And how we can change that at the root

This isn’t about forcing better behaviour.
It’s about creating a horse who no longer needs to struggle in the first place.

And just as importantly, it’s about supporting you.
Because going against the grain in the horse world can feel isolating.
It can make you doubt yourself.
It can make you feel like you’re the problem.
You’re not.
You’re paying attention.

What you can expect from working with me:
– A space where your concerns are taken seriously
– Thoughtful, individual support, not a one-size-fits-all approach
– Practical ways to understand and respond to your horse
– Lasting change built on trust, not pressure
You don’t have to choose between doing what feels right and getting results.

If you’re ready to explore a different way, I’m here.

Had a lovely session with Emma, Charlie and Minnie the Shire yesterday, getting her fitted for a bit. They also made a post on Instagram that you can check out by scanning the code below 😊

For those who have their horses at home, why not add some biodiversity to your grazing?

Every year, we spend a fortune caring for our horses. Some costs (land, forage, feed) are unavoidable. But there’s a way to reduce bills and improve the very environment your horse relies on. The key lies beneath their feet: the soil.Horses evolved to thrive in biodiverse landscapes, feeding thems...

❄️ Winter Weekends – Special Offer ❄️

For January & February, I’m offering individual bit fittings on Saturdays and Sundays.

Normally, weekend appointments are reserved for groups of 3 or more, but for the winter months I’m opening up a limited number of weekend slots for individual bookings.

✨ What this means:

• Individual bit fittings available on Saturdays & Sundays

• January & February dates only

• Same thorough, horse-centred fitting process as always

If you’ve been wanting a weekend appointment but don’t have enough people to make up a group, this is a great opportunity.
Spaces will be limited, so drop me a message if you’d like to book or have a chat.

As the year comes to an end, I just want to say thank you.

Thank you to everyone who trusted me with their horses this year. Being invited into that space is never something I take lightly. A lot of this year has been about slowing things down, paying closer attention, and having honest conversations about comfort, communication, and what our horses are actually telling us.

I’m constantly reminded that there isn’t one right answer — just what’s in front of us on the day, and whether we’re willing to notice it and adjust. Whether that’s through bit choice, bitless options, or rethinking how we approach training altogether, the aim is always the same: making things clearer and fairer for the horse.

I’m really grateful to work with people who are curious, thoughtful, and prepared to question things rather than just doing them because they’ve always been done that way. That’s what makes this work feel worthwhile.

Wishing you all a calm end to the year, and thank you for being part of it 🤍
