The Team
Behind the success of The Dressage Secret is a small but dedicated team, each one of which, in their own way, contribute to the high standard of professional service we give our clients, (both human and equine!)
Denise heads the team, and is responsible for all the coaching, at home and abroad, plus the training of any horses who come in for schooling or rehabilitation livery, and the ridden work for horses who are for sale. Denise also oversees the physical development program for all the horses in her care, including fittening work and any physical therapies required (see below).
She also ensures that the working pupils get plenty of quality training, and that they develop their horsemanship skills ethically and safely.
Kieron is second in command, and without his never ending support nothing would be possible! From his relentless early morning feeding regime, to late night checks after work, Kieron is the person who holds everything together when Denise is travelling, and helps everything run smoothly when she's not! Kieron has a gift for giving confidence to the young and inexperienced horses, jumping or hacking them as required, as well as taking them cross country to ensure they have an all-round education.
Liz is an invaluable asset in the day to day running of the yard. Kind and quietly spoken, the horses all love her, (especially Piper, who thinks that Liz is his own personal assistant!) She helps on all of the courses, making sure that our clients have a wonderful relaxing time from the moment they arrive to the time they go home.
She has an uncanny knack of being exactly where you need her to be - providing a pair of hands just at the right time!
