    Coach- rider relationship

    T That is awful...it is such a shame that others are experiencing the same. I mean when your 'coach' says to you she is always skint, worried about making an income and wants to be on £100,000 a year...just goes to show all they care about is the money...

    Coach- rider relationship

    That is interesting Rowreach. I find it also very interesting that when i was having issues hacking my horse, she told me it wasn't worth her time or my money for her to help me with it, yet she does hacking confidence clinics/camps? Needless to say, without her help, we have overcome our...

    Coach- rider relationship

    Hi all, so i wanted to provide an update on how things have progressed. It has been a tough year, i moved yards last June and we were very happy and settled, and then last month we were asked to leave due to a change in the YO's circumstances, so we are currently at a yard with no onsite menage...

    Coach- rider relationship

    Thank you. It is really hard, i suppose because we have done so much together and come so far, i feel guilty but it isn't personal at the end of the day. I think that is similar to me, i needed guidance and taking the pressure off for a while, but then i felt she was too controlling. I do find...

    Coach- rider relationship

    I did confront her with the issues I have mentioned on several occasions and asked to meet up so we could discuss in person but have just been ignored unfortunately. I do think her intentions were good for the most part and I’m grateful for her help.

    Coach- rider relationship

    I think that’s similar to me…I was too reliant on her, so lost my confidence and self belief but because she was so supportive and controlling I guess i struggled when she wasn’t there as much?! I would have lessons when she wouldn’t say anything…or challenge me. This evening we had another fab...

    Coach- rider relationship

    She’s also removed me from social media as well but then wants to be friends?! I don’t need someone like that in my life to be honest…life is far too short!

    Coach- rider relationship

    Thank you. That did frustrate me quite a lot. I even tried to explain what the problems were but unfortunately she can’t seem to see she has done anything wrong! I tried to arrange to meet up in person to clear the air and be friends (as that is what she said she wanted) but just get ignored so...

    Coach- rider relationship

    That is actually a good view point, i hadn't thought of it like that to be honest. I guess when you are in the situation, it is hard to see what is going on and i was severely depressed over the winter because i was working through so much previous trauma and i don't like change! I was so...

    Coach- rider relationship

    Definitely. So many people have said how well i am doing since the change but i was also her biggest client, and to send me that message after having such a fab day at an event was not really on in my opinion. It felt like because i was her biggest client and the only one competing, but she also...

    Coach- rider relationship

    Hi All, I started working with a coach who also offered mindset coaching as well in August 2021. I had regular lessons with her, xc lessons, SJ lessons etc up until April really. My mare has been quite tricky and due to a nasty accident a few years ago, which left me dealing with PTSD and...

    WWYD- coming back after a nasty accident

    Yes she has. She had her hormones and ovaries scanned last year and was on Regumate due to a hormonal imbalance and we are going to re-test. She has regular saddle fitter, osteo and physio etc. I have also had a groundwork person come out to help with the hacking...lets just say that she tried...

    WWYD- coming back after a nasty accident

    Thank you. It really is a hard decision as i feel like i want to do everything i can to try, even working with my instructor to take the pressure off me a bit. I do need to make a decision this year though really as to what i am going to do. My other mare wasn't easy by any means, but then i...

    WWYD- coming back after a nasty accident

    Hi All, So i find myself facing quite a huge dilemma. I have had my mare who will be 7 this year from an unhandled 3 year old, she was professionally backed at 4 (came home just before the first lockdown!). In January 2021, i unfortunately suffered a nasty accident when i was leading her and...

    Dealing with yard bullies

    Thank you for taking the time to read and reply. I do think it is jealousy, but I guess I’ve had that every yard I have been on, because I do go out and do things, and it doesn’t bother me if I am on my own, I guess people just don’t like it! It is a shame that the horse world has to be like...
