Sad news today about the passing of Monty Roberts 😢

I had the pleasure of meeting him many years ago at Bookmark in Spalding where I went to a talk with him following the launch of one of his books. Such a lovely man with a great sense of humour. He signed my book for me, making it out to me and Cordy 🫶 A huge loss to the horse world, he was an inspiration to many and has left us with a wonderful legacy 🖤

American horseman Monty Roberts, world famous for his nonviolent training methods, has died at age 91

😂 Saturday giggles…

These pictures pretty much sum up one teeny part of my thought process, and a very large late night rabbit hole, probably more of a rabbit warren, surrounding the idea of “I know, let’s chuck bit fitting into the mix!!!” 🙌 🥳😍🫣🎓

These are my last 4 appointments in August. If anyone wants one please message me this weekend as I'll be closing August for any new bookings on Monday. I'll post September's availability next week :) Thanks everyone!!! xx

Hi everyone 👋
There's been a lot of changes to the August diary and it's already pretty much full. Got room for about 4 more new appointments, so if you need anything, just let me know!
If you are a regular and need an urgent appointment, just message 🥰 I've got you!

You will notice a slight change coming from August 1st.

All appointments will now be invoiced on the day of your visit rather than after receiving the report. Of course, cash and card payments will still also be accepted at the end of your appointment.

This is a small change but one that will help my business to keep running, smoothly and efficiently.

Please remember, all invoices are payable within 24 hours of receipt. If you have any questions or concerns about this change, please let me know.

♥️ Huge breakthrough yesterday with this pretty girl!

Missy is a regular, she’s coming up to her 1 year anniversary in the Flying Hooves family 🥰

Sometimes she 😍 her treatments and sometimes she 😡 them

I work with her, we work around things together, swap techniques, skip around her body, no set routine, no set rules ♥️

Yesterday she 💯 sank into the work, she fully trusted the process, and me 🥰

Her response was so deep to my tiny suggestions of release through her lumbar that the whole area just unlocked 🔓 🔑

She let out one huge backwards kick and then went into an utter state of total relaxation 🥹😴

She melted into the psoas and gluteal work, I was practically propping her up by this point 😂 💤

I stopped there, ending things positively, letting her process, the yawning, and pandiculation stretches, holding her legs in her own stretch for some time all followed and we left her with the happy relaxed face you can see in the photo ♥️

Sleep well, stay happy and jump high at your next competition sweet girl

🤩 How fabulous does this beautiful girl look in her James Saddlery bridle? 🤩

She has the curved browband with stunning Emerald Swarovski Crystals 💚 doesn't it stand out against her? And the sparkle, just wow ✨

Her headpiece is the half moon which just envelopes her poll a lovely hug 👐 helping relieve tension 🥰🐴

A simple cavesson and billet cheeks complete the look, drawing the eye up her face to the browband, making it, and her, the star of the show! ⭐

Reins are the Xtreme Eventer, these are smooth but 'Xtremely' grippy making them perfect for hands that struggle to cope with the feel of bobbles or stoppers 🫶

The bit is a rotary D that I loaned them to tide them over 💜

I love it when a bridle comes together and paints such a lovely picture 💜 the buckles are perfectly aligned, the browband shines, the Havana leather compliments her coat colour, the headpiece sits so still and straight and... we have a much happier girl after she chose her bit and got her fitted bridle.

Happy days!

Flippin hilarious!!! 🤣 I’m referring all your horses to their vets, they’re all built very wrong and missing their third front leg! You’re all prescribed turmeric to help 😂 😂 😂
