“I am an older rider returning to this wonderful sport after a 20 year hiatus. I was terrified of jumping because I had a nasty accident in my late teens which replayed every time I approached a fence even after such a long break. Nicole has been patient, kind, encouraging and so clear and knowledgeable with me while I navigate my way back to bravery.

After a steady program of coaching under Nicole I am finding my joy has come back. I feel solid and confident in my steadily improving skills. I am happily jumping courses again and I am starting to work on a range of other nuances in my riding.

My husband started riding two years ago and struggled to find a coach that could be clear and logical in explaining the mechanics of riding. Beginning his journey in adulthood has been rather a challenge. Nicole has coached him successfully from absolute novice to a competent, confident jumper.

We love Nicole’s lessons because they are fun, educational, kind and constructive.”
