How I started?
We had an entrepreneurs’ day at primary school. I took my horses to do pony rides, where one of the mothers approached my mother regarding riding lessons; her daughter had cerebral palsy and the doctor prescribed horse riding to help with balance and muscle development.
Those days specialised therapeutic horse riding was unheard of and they could not find a riding school that could accommodate them. I was 9 years old at that stage and was a good and strong rider. I knew all the basics, so we decided to give it a go.
I realised the best way to teach her was to get on the horse with her, with many falls, tears and laughter she eventually could ride horse. Now, she is my sister-in-law! From there a started giving lessons to kids from Sunday school and some of their mothers as well!
By word of mouth I eventually had a good little riding school on the go and made some good pocket money. I stopped in matric due to studies. Now, at the age of 32 life made a full circle and I am blessed to start again with my lifelong passion.

What I want to achieve?
To me, children are a gift from God, they are so precious and we have a responsibility to equip them for all the challenges of life.
This is my way to help children, being it children with any physical or emotional disability or a child without any disability, to give them that happy feeling of accomplishment, appreciation, confidence and joy.
To give them the privilege to have the same “warm” feeling I had as a child just be around horses and what they have to offer.
