Jo has more than 40 years’ experience with horses: training racehorses, retraining ex-racehorses, showjumping, eventing and coaching riders of every level. Online consultations make that experience available to owners and riders anywhere in the UK and abroad.

How it works

Book a 30- or 60-minute session online, upload any videos or photos you’d like Jo to see, and meet by video call at your chosen time. Jo reviews everything beforehand so you can spend the session on solutions, and afterwards you get a written summary with an action plan.

What Jo can help with

Common topics include rider confidence, schooling and flatwork, jumping problems, behaviour, competition planning, buying a horse, retraining ex-racehorses, feeding and management, tack and bitting, and fitness plans.

Jo isn’t a vet, and she’ll always recommend a qualified professional where one is needed. Book a consultation.
