A months coaching from top international competitor...

[Gypley]

This is just for fun....

If you could have the pleasure of shadowing and tuition for a whole month from a top class rider, who would you pick and why?

I would love to be able to pick the brains of Lucinda Green. I love her methods and they really make sense to me. Too often I listen to pros and have no idea what they're on about or can't apply what they're saying to my own riding. But I love lucindas no nonsense approach a feel I could really sponge up every word.

So who would you pick and for what reasons? What do you think you could gain from their tuition?

either carl hester/charlotte dujardin or the bardo/webber show team - so much I could learn from each

Andrew Nicholson, but I think I'd actually be more of a sinister stalker than a tuition student

I want to be clever and think of someone obscure but the real answer is Carl Hester and if I can't have him I'd choose Edward gal

Kyra Kyrklund. Her approach to training is always horse first and is based on everything else first, head position last and I just love her. X

Gerd Heuschmann.

Undoubtedly. But I'd also request someone with me at all times to record EVERYTHING that was said and done. There is no way I could take in a months worth of information, and retain anything of use! I'd need another 6 months after just rewatching and trying to learn it all

Carl hester definitely love the way he wants his horses to be horses not just competition robots, he understands them which is refreshing x

Carl Hester. A modern classical master.

Ingrid Klimke - I have seen her teaching youngsters (horses and riders ) and it was simply amazing how quickly horses and riders picked up her intentions, fascinating to watch.

I would also have to go for Carl Hester, the man is an absolute genius when it comes to horses.
