Unity Horse Training Natural Horsemanship Clinics - Friday, June 18 2010

Natural Horsemanship is a growing phenomenon in the U.K particularly with self help DVD’s and books available en mass from various organisations.

Unfortunately good practical help is lacking, and there is no substitute for hands on assistance when experiencing problems. Horses like ourselves are individuals and don’t always conform to DVD’s and books. Enthusiasm is a good thing, but when results don’t happen as they do in the book or on the DVD our enthusiasm wanes.

Unity Horse Training during 2010 would like to help as many people as possible to regain their enthusiasm and also welcome new people to the world of Natural Horsemanship. In order to achieve this we would like to hear from anyone who would like to organise a clinic or demonstration.

The normal format would be for 6 participants on the day , starting at approximately 9.30AM with an hour for lunch and finishing at around 4.00PM. The day is one of a relaxed and friendly environment with emphasis on fun as well as learning.

The minimum facility requirement would be a flat grazed enclosed field with enough room to work 6 horses easily.

If you think this is something you would be interested in then please don’t hesitate to contact us for more information, availability and cost. www.unityhorsetraining.co.uk


FORD FARM STABLES OPEN DAY 29th May 2010 - Thursday, May 20 2010

On 29th May, 2010, Ford Farm Stables will celebrate its 30th Birthday as a licensed riding school. From very small beginnings with just 3 stables and a few paddocks, the business has grown beyond recognition and now provides both indoor and outdoor arenas, horse walker and stabling for over 30 animals. In addition to the 22 riding school horses and ponies, there are also a similar number of liveries.

Trudy Nineham, the proprietor who started it all back in 1980 says “ I find it hard to believe that 30 years has passed so quickly since we opened for business, we have gained enormous pleasure from teaching so many people to ride and now of course in many cases their children as well. In what has been an increasingly difficult period for riding schools with a dramatic increase in regulations including health and safety and liability insurance problems, I feel very proud that we continue to grow and with the dedication of our full and part time instructors together with the support of all our hard working staff, we hope to provide lessons and hacks for the local community and visitors for many more years yet and we hope as many people as possible, clients and friends, old and new will be able to come along on the day”.

To celebrate the occasion, Ford Farm are holding an open day on Saturday 29th May when everyone is invited to meet the riding school horses and ponies and also to see the mares and new born foals in the small stud which is incorporated into the business.

There will be ridden demonstrations from pupils, staff and the disabled groups who operate from Ford Farm throughout the day which runs from 10am to 4pm whilst many of the groups and clubs who use the premises will be in attendance.

There will also be a nature trail, a fun dog show starting at 12 noon, a raffle in aid of the Hampshire Air Ambulance and refreshments will be available. For further details, please email or phone 0750 350 7324.

An Introduction to Edmonds Equestrian Services - Sunday, April 18 2010

Tim has gained vast experience in his equestrian life, not only as a life long competitor but also as a head groom, yard manager and breeder. Tim draws on all his knowledge to help others in their showjumping tuition.

He specialises in Showjumping. He adapts his lessons to suit riders, horses and ponies of all ages and abilities. It is because of his experience as a competition rider and young horse producer that he is able to read situations in order to get the best from those he teaches. Nothing beats someone who has had first hand experience and knowledge to actually know how the horse or rider might be feeling.

He believes in a simple approach thus not making jumping any more complicated than it actually is. So whether it’s a nervous rider, the inability to see a stride, a disobedient horse, course riding, or a novice horse, Tim is confident he can help. It is important that the horse and rider become as one. From his own experience Tim feels that it is important that in order to learn riders need to feel relaxed and confident and therefore he try’s to create a good relationship between himself and his clients so he can get the best from them. Tim believes that to be good at any sport you need to be high in confidence, if you’re confident you will achieve results, this is something that Tim works on closely with his clients. Individual or group lessons are available and he will also assist at local competitions.
Tim is currently able to take on new clients and welcomes any enquiries. 07904 617442

A New Horsebox for Karen Buchan Horse Transport - Friday, April 9 2010

Karen Buchan Horse Transport has a new horsebox! Karen has treated herself to a brand new 3.5 ton box built by the same company as the previous one so it's exceptionally well fitted out and very classy! Unlike the old box this one is much roomier with 8ft of headroom and the new 'safety height' rear partition. Otherwise it's got all the same features - low side ramp, CCTV, grooms area and of course a very experienced driver and horse owner who understands how precious the passenger is! Karen has sold her very distinctive old box to a friend who lives in the Forest so don't be suprised to see it out and about!
