FAQs
Is there something you’ve always wanted to know about me? I have put some of the common questions i get asked below – have a look and let me know if there’s a question you want me to add to the list!
When did you start riding?
My first ride was on a chestnut mare called honey, at a friends birthday party, and I started with lessons when I was five.
What is your favourite riding discipline?
Show Jumping, but I actually really enjoy hacking (trail riding), dressage and cross country. I tend to like what my horses enjoy.
How did you start YouTube?
It was completely by accident. I used to film my rounds and lessons, especially as Casper was disunited on right hand canter. My old phone quickly filled up and YouTube was a free and easy place to store them, the rest as they say is history.
Have you any advice for someone starting a YouTube channel?
Be original, be passionate and be yourself.
Who’s your favourite horse or pony?
Well of course they are all special and have a huge place in my heart. I have no favourite’s but I do have a special prize for ‘horse of the week’. So some weeks Joey might have been really good at jumping, or just standing still for photos. Or Casper might have not rolled in the muddiest patch.
‘Horse of the week’ normally gets a special tasty treat!
How do I find out when your next public appearance is?
There is a meet-up page on this website.
Where’s been your favourite place in the world to ride?
This is a tricky one, I’ve been lucky enough to have so many incredible experiences. Riding across a lava field in Iceland was amazing, but nothing yet has beaten seeing loins, leopards and elephants from the saddle in Botswana.
What is your favourite LeMieux saddle pad colour?
It changes, but currently….Wisteria
