“Manuela, I can honestly say that in all my life you are the best coach I have had the pleasure of riding with.  Your method of teaching, your honesty, knowledge, confidence and the ability to stay humble are inspiring.  I have had many coaches whose lessons I would feel anxious about rather than excited.  You have an ability to get through to riders and make change happen while having riders feel so positive about themselves and their horses” – S.C

 

 

“Thank you for all the work you have done to promote a better way to train a horse.  After attending Andrew’s talk at Arena UK a few years ago and subsequently reading the books I tell everybody I know who rides about your methods.  I wont bore you with all my thoughts and observations but wish everybody who owns and/or rides a horse should be made aware of you and use your training system” – F.M
