Filippa Valenca Classical Dressage Clinic

Portuguese Classical Dressage Trainer, Filippa Valenca will be holding another clinic at Arrow on June 18th - 21st plus a lecture demo on Saturday June 20th from 6pm

Filippa's clinic and demo last year was an "inspiration" to all who saw her and listened to her teaching. She was endlessly patient and always generous with her praise both to horses and riders. Her work in hand is some of the best you will find anywhere in the world and her riding is exemplary. Click here for more information and a booking form.

New Horse! "Mouse"
Mouse is a 16.3hh 9 year old Hannoverian by Medoc. He arrived here on trial and wouldn't go back in the lorry when it was time to go home. He then remained at livery until his owner decided that he didn't want him anymore and so now he belongs to me. They say don't look a gift horse in the mouth and this is true - he seems to have at least 4 problems - his legs! He injured a foot as a 2 year old and this has lead to problems in the other three. This has not been helped by previous work so it will be interesting to see if the "Arrow Team" can work our magic on him. If he improves as much as Pooh Bear has over the last 18 months I will be very pleased. Watch this space!

"No! It's not a levade - we are just having fun!"
