Individually placed at the Caledonian Championships.

John's lessons and clinics are good fun. They may seem light hearted but he gets results. His experience and teaching skills allow him to quickly asses his pupils, their abilities and their potential. He then works with them to overcome problems and develop their natural talents. Although easy on riders who lack confidence, he is not slow to set challenges for riders and horses who are able. In this way all riders progress in line with their abilities and riders feel a sense of achievement which can be seen by the end of their course.

You can either attend courses Hayfield which is Equiworlds main base in Scotland or John will happily come to you as he enjoys travelling to different countries to teach. If you arrange a group/ clinc whether at Hayfield or your place there is always a discount given which might mean you go free or you can pass it on to the group..

Although he lives a fairly simply life being a non smoker and a moderate drinker, he is always happy to join in with pre-clinic fun and social events.
