Linda is a full time EA NCAS qualified coach with extensive international experience training both horses and riders of all levels.

Linda grew up in Holland, where she was breaking in ponies at the age of eight, and successfully competing in a variety of equestrian disciplines as a young rider.   After gaining her Bachelor of Education teaching degree, Linda spent ten years working in and managing horse breeding and training centers in both Europe and America, where she was responsible for both competing as well as overseeing the horse training.   This gave Linda the opportunity to compete a variety of horses to FEI level with Championships and placings at shows in Wiesbaden-Germany, Verona- Italy, Paris- France, Kentucky - USA, Tokyo - Japan.

As part of her travels, Linda came to Australia and spent some time riding at Bart Cummings stables, as well as working with Argentinian Polo Ponies for one of the Polo Teams while in Australia for tournaments at Kerry Packers Ellerston Pastural station.

Decided to settle in Australia, she spent several years as the manager and head instructor of one of Australia’s leading Riding and Coach education centres, where her teaching and horse education background enabled her to teach not only beginner riders but also advanced riders, including future NCAS Level 1 instructors participating in the traneeship program.

Linda regularly returns to Europe where she combines family visits with training at institutions like the Academy Bartels in the Netherlands and visits to various centres in Germany in order to remain current with advancements in both horse and rider training techniques.

In 2000, Linda established her own coaching and training centre and with her knowledge of horses, teaching, training and riding, combined with excellent indoor and outdoor facilities, she is able to offer a relaxed and natural environment for both horse and rider.

We provide and take care of the horse, you just come and ride.

Over many years teaching people to ride, we have observed that there is always a point when a rider wants to move on from beginner riding and trail rides, however access to a horse suitable for higher levels is almost impossible to find unless you purchase your own. This presents many problems:

• What horse do I buy, and at what price?
• How do I know it will be suitable?
• Where do I keep the horse?
• How much will it cost?
• How often can i get out to see my horse?
• What gear do I need to buy?
• Does my saddle fit my horse?
• What happens if my horse gets injured?
• Is it necessary to call a vet?
• Can I be there if I need to get a vet?
• Which farrier do I get?
• Do I need to be there when the horse is shod?
• What type of shoeing does my horse need?
• When does my horse need the dentist?
• When and with what product do I worm my horse?
• What vaccinations do I need to give my horse?
• How do I give the vaccinations?

All of these, and more, are common questions that are asked, with the answers not always encouraging.
The purchase price of a horse is usually the cheapest part.

With today's busy lives and the necessity to live close to the city, our customers (and may others) are often forced to forgo the idea of owning a horse and therefor over time their hobby of riding.

It is for these reasons that we have come up with a horse rental program which gives you a sense of horse "ownership" without the worry and un-expected extra costs that come with owning a horse.

For a weekly fee, you get a horse, it's gear, lessons and access to our facilities.
