  • Schooling - Do you feel like you are stuck on a plateaux with your performance, and just can't get to the next level?... or have you got a challenging horse that you need assistance with?... then The Eventing Way can help. Stephen has always brought on and produced his own horses taking gangly uncoordinated 4yr olds, and turning them into polished competition horses. During this process he has encountered many types, attitudes, and characters of horse and has found a way to get the best out of each of them. If you would like to discuss the current issues you are having and the future aims for your horse with Stephen to see how he could help then please get in touch. The Eventing Way can offer bespoke assistance from 'residential boot-camps' based at our yard in Wiltshire to regular ridden jump/flat schooling by Steve to help improve, and progress your horse.

On the day of the event Steve will give you pointers for each phase - Where to pick up marks in the dressage, how to avoid having a pole SJ, and what to avoid being caught out by on the cross country. He can also help you warm in for each phase, and give you a final debrief on your performance the positives, negatives, and provide you with homework to go away with to improve your performance.
