A unique family with an understanding of the horses mind that comes through a lifetime of handling and working with and observing 1000's of horses, ponies and other equines.

Leading a unique childhood she has always been surrounded by animals, from her life as a child of the circus Tanya learnt from her parents that the animals were the priority. The knowledge and experience gained during her extensive career, her upbringing and background gives her a unique and fresh approach to working with horses of all sizes.
It is a wise person who acknowledges their horses limitations, as
