Specialties

Amberley works with/has worked with a variety of breeds, such as: 

Amberley specializes in and is known amongst saddle fit and body workers for building the horse's body correctly so that it properly uses its core, hind end, topline, and thoracic sling, and works evenly through both sides of its body. All horses are naturally crooked and one-sided, just like humans are right or left handed. Correct training helps horses become more supple and maintain soundness long term, as well as enhances their natural movement and maximizes their potential in any discipline. 


Amberley has extensive experience in building the horse's mind, and dealing with a variety of confidence issues, behavioural problems, anxiety, fear, as well as emotional trauma from abuse.
