With over 25 years of international coaching experience and being a well accomplished rider herself, Mia's results both in and out of the ring exemplify her expertise, dedication and commitment to continuous improvement.

Welfare - Connection - Empathy - Results

If you're looking for a showjumping coach to simply tell you what to do from beginning to end, then she's probably not the right coach for you. If however, you are looking for a coach that will develop both your physical and mental capabilities and give you the tools to think, ride and correct independently then she is your perfect match.

If the truth be known, Mia was riding before she had even drew her first breath in the world. Born into a family of equestrian enthusiasts and to a strong mother who laid the foundations of her incredible coaching path when she told Mia "riding alone would not provide a grounded lifestyle, you have a talent for teaching and you must harness and hone the gift you have been given". That was many years ago, since then, like the good girl she is, has followed her mother's advice and continues to exceed the expectations of those that support and follow her path in life.
