Sarah Westrope

Wanda is an excellent trainer working in a relatable style at all levels.
Highly recommended for both training the rider and the horse in the correct way of going !

Jeff Wright

Highly recommend Wanda as both a rider and an instructor. She explains clearly why and how things are done and has helped me learn a lot. Wanda is calm and patient with both horses and riders, but also knows when to push for progress. Her passion for helping others achieve their goals really shows.

Saffron Bradshaw

Wanda has been a brilliant trainer. I started lessons with her after my confidence was badly affected while riding a sensitive and anxious horse. With patience and empathy, she helped us get back on track and rebuild trust. She has also helped me correct bad habits and build a strong foundation.

Jay Brockbank

I feel very fortunate that Wanda was recommended to me when I was feeling overwhelmed with my very green OTTB. With her guidance, both my horse and I have gained confidence and trust in this new chapter together. Her knowledge, calm approach, and focus on safety have helped us rediscover the enjoyment of riding.

Philippa Fairbanks

Wanda has been riding with my eleven year old daughter for over a year and she has been the most effective and engaging teacher we’ve had. Wanda allows space for the relationship between horse and rider to progress naturally. The stables and horses are immaculate and Wanda is a calm, kind presence. Her sessions have given my daughter newfound confidence, I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Georgia Mann

Wanda has been our 15-year-old daughter’s instructor for the past two years and has supported her beautifully through the levels. Her care for the horses, patience when explaining techniques, and constant encouragement have made a huge difference to our daughter’s confidence and progress.

We feel very lucky to have found such a dedicated instructor and highly recommend Wanda for high-quality coaching.

Hannah Leadbetter

Wanda is a fantastic instructor and horsewoman who has helped me improve enormously on several different horses. Her knowledge and ability to support both horse and rider are exceptional. I leave every lesson feeling more confident and with clear things to work on. I would highly recommend Wanda to anyone looking to improve their dressage and horsemanship.

Blossom Dickinson

Before I started training with Wanda, I felt stuck in a rut and unable to move forward with my then 5yr old. Wanda has helped me find the enjoyment in dressage again and, with her patient but thorough approach to teaching, we are working several levels above where I’ve achieved previously
