TRAINING

Leonie has a passion for teaching and really enjoys passing on the knowledge she has gained from many top riders and trainers. It is always so satisfying when someone is struggling to achieve something with their horse to be able to help them work it out. Please have a look at the livery & training section for more details and have a look at the reference page and guest book for comments from current clients about their experience of Daneswood. Leonie also does a number of clinics locally so if you are interested in her coming to your yard then please contact Leonie. Daneswood is also holding a number of riding club events including dressage to music days and training days.  OFFER - FREE LESSON IF YOU ORGANIZE A CLINIC AT YOUR YARD Contact Leonie for details

Leonie is sponsored by Equine Physiotherapist SUE PALMER who makes regular trips to Daneswood which you are welcome to bring your horse along to. It is through Sue that Leonie became a member of the Intelligent Horsemanship Association. This has added another dimension to Leonie's training and she really enjoys his training methods.  Help improve your horses comfort and performance with her fabulous treatments. Sue will also treat people as there is no point sorting your horse out and then sitting crookedly yourself!

Leonie is also lucky enough to be sponsored by Lindsay Wilcox Reed from Equipilates who will now be doing regular clinics at Daneswood. If you're looking to improve your riding and achieve more with your horse then Lindsay can help! Equipilates helps riders- just like you- to be more balanced, supple, effective and elegant. Position is everything in riding- oh, plus technique, timing and FEEL. Equipilates teaches precisely that.
