Jumping Instructors in Cheshire/Manchester/Lancashire

[TheBlackMoth]

Hi

Can anyone recommend a good jumping instructor - preferably one we could travel to who has their own arena. I am looking to take my girls to occasional lessons with someone else to get them some more experience.

Thanks

Nuala

Andrea Johnson (nee Morris) is an eventer and has her own 60x20 arena with lots of jumps... she is based in Bolton, Lancashire.

Alan Fazakerley is somewhere on the East Lancs and not far from Warrington is Richard Carruthers, I currently go to Richard as he suits my horses, but I would recommend Alan as highly.

There's also jonathon Lowe at Richard Carruthers yard. He has just started teaching a friend of mine and has helped her with jumping no end

My yard owner's son is giving my jumping lessons. The yard is in Mottram with a 45x45m arena with jumps. He's a BSJA YR and very good, and patient with a wuss like me.

Hi Nuala,
My son Andy gives jumping lessons. Have to say he is very experienced in competitive jumping. Our new yard might be just the ticket for you as it is straight off the M6 with a huge Indoor, Outdoor, & eventually Grass Arena.

Jonathan Lowe, now there's a blast from the past, I use to know him years ago. Was a nice guy if that helps. Pointless post sorry, just interesting to hear that he's still 'horsey'

I've had a couple of lessons off Alan Fazackerley and found him to be really good.

Andrew Hamilton does a monthly training session at Croft End near Ashton. He does half hour private lessons through the day, and then a demonstration in the evening.

I met Andrea at Mount Ballan, she hadn't half covered some miles that day, from Lancs to Kent, then back to Wales arriving after dark and had to plait up.. Like us she was peeved to find the cafe shut and in darkness.
I looked her results up and she has a good track record eventing.
I don't know if John Greenwood still teaches but he was the best trainer we ever had..

She is lovely too and just seems to get the horses going so well... she jumps Grace for me when she is in work, and bloody hell she has some guts!!!

Had lessons with Alan Faz hes very good and trains i think the junior teams, also Tracy Newman is very good very easy way of teaching, she has indoor and out, both accredited coaches.

Alan is at Astley Green off the East Lancs, Tracy at Ainsworth between bolton and bury
