Lesley soon qualified as a BHS AI and worked with all levels in Course Lodge Riding School, Richhill. Lesley then had a break from riding school work and opened and managed a competition livery yard in Richhill, where she produced several successful young horses and achieved her childhood ambition to compete at the Dublin Horse Show.
On selling her show jumpers she then veered towards some dressage riding and did some eventing for a local equestrian enthusiast, experiencing many valuable training sessions with some very well known top Instructors. Lesley now thrives on ensuring to teach and motivate riders of all ages and experience, and regularly refreshes her teaching skills attending courses and seminars in her field whenever possible.
