"After trialling a few coaches, for Dressage, and getting a little disheartened I finally came across Sherrilyn. She was everything that I was looking for in a coach.
I was looking for someone that ASKED the horse to cooperate in ‘dressage’ and not force them to do ‘dressage’. This may seem a strange differentiation but a very important one when you want a willing and relaxed horse. I have experienced a few horses and have learnt that mutual trust and respect is a very important ingredient in the success of forming a great partnership. This is not achieved with strength and brute force but a kind, confident and determined attitude that understands the nature of a horse. Sherrilyn has this in spades. She teaches you how to become one with your horse. In turn he will trust you and want to work for you.
The added benefit that I received was that she has encouraged me to also be a relaxed and confident rider. This has come about by using her methods of breathing and understanding how the mind and body are so connected with you and your horse and how much this can affect your partnership.
I would gladly recommend Sherrilyn as a coach and instructor for any one that wants to be a better horse rider and anyone that wants to improve in whatever discipline they have chosen."

"I contacted Sherrilyn several months ago wanting help with my riding and my horse Belle. I felt I lacked confidence and wanted a better relationship with my horse. Instantly Sherrilyn's gentle methods and exercises worked wonders. I can honestly say since working together I now have a much more relaxed and responsive horse and I have more confidence and a better relationship with Belle. Sherrilyn is always positive and encouraging with my riding and because she rides Belle herself, she knows where my horse is at, which gives both myself and Belle a better chance of succeeding. I thoroughly enjoy my lessons and look forward to them each week with keen anticipation."
