Whilst coaching, Tabitha uses the German Scales of Training to guide the progressive development of both horse and rider, supporting correct training while helping each rider reach their full potential and achieve their goals.
She places particular emphasis on the rider’s position and the effectiveness of their seat and aids, believing these to be fundamental to developing the rider as an athlete and producing a harmonious, correctly trained dressage horse.
