handler classes before being allowed to show my parents' horses. I beleive in not only the education of the horse, but also the education in the handler, it was with this belief that prompted me to seek extra training. I had several intense weeks of tuition with Eric Dorssers, which consisted of not only the finer points of training the Arabian for the in-hand class, but also the preparation required for the physical conditioning of the horse, an element of training which is as important as the inhand training itself. My enthusiasm grew considerably with my newly acquired knowledge as did my confidence in the ring, but I do still firmly believe that even now there are still lessons to be learned!
My reputation has stemmed from the successes I have attained with the horses I have shown for Silverdale Arabains, which although an entirely separate enterprise from the Training Centre they are both based at the same premises.
In the past I have held several seminars, the basis of which covered all the fundamental aspects of a training program for the inhand horse.
