Jacquie Billington R+ & AAoR Academic Art of Riding Squire
Member of IEP
R+ Classical Dressage Trainer
EET L3

https://knighthoodoftheacademicartofriding.eu/uk/ Principles.

I am the first person in UK to pass the Academic Art of Riding by Bent Branderup ridden Squire Test.

“Two spirits who want to do what two bodies can”
and
“Spend time well”
are two Bent Branderup quotes epitomise for me what good horse training should look like. I am a Full Member of the International Equine Professionals and I train horses using Positive Reinforcement methods adhering to the L.

I.M.A. I pay close attention to accredited scientific research findings concerning equine behaviour and ethology and I choose to use science based animal training approaches. The Equine Touch has proved to be a very valuable skill to enable me to release and soften horses bodies from tensions that often arise. The Equine Touch is a non-diagnostic, non-invasive Equine Bodywork system which is an holistic soft tissue address, effecting mostly connective tissue – muscles and tendons, joint capsules and ligaments using a very specific move. I have also trained with Heather Moffett and I am a Level3 Enlightened Equitation Trainer. Heather is very good at analysing how to correct the riders’ seat and improving the timing of the aids. Private lessons £45 per lesson at Stonehaven, plus travel if at your yard.

My approach to horses and training

I am a student of The Academic Art of Riding Bent Branderup and the first person in UK to have passed the Academic Art of Riding by Bent Branderup Longing and Groundwork test.

I am an EET Level 3 (Enlightened Equitation Teacher, Heather Moffet) for rider seat, balance, and correct timing and application of aids and lateral work.

I train our horses using Positive Reinforcement methods and I have studied directly with Ben Hart, Shawna Karrasch and Karolina Westlund-Friman, recently completing her ILLIS ABC Advanced Animal Training course. I am a member of the International Association of Animal Behaviour Consultants.

I have studied The Equine Touch to Level 3 and use this to good effect with all horse in my care Private lessons £45 per lesson at my yard, or £45 per lesson plus travelling time
