Thanks for having me Torshus Folkehøgskule 😍

So last weekend I was invited up to Trondheim, to be the guest trainer of Torshus(yearly) Summercamp, 2019 edition! I was so honoured and excited and I had a very lovely time!We had absolutely stunning weather! Maybe a touch to hot, but one shouldn’t complain about that in a summer that’s trying to hide away from us!It was such a picturesque setting to wake up and work in that it stole my eyes many a time – but who could blame me! Sadly I was REALLY!!!!! bad with regards to taking photos myself but i am hoping that some of the ladies did and can send me some so I can share it with you!It was a lovely bunch, both on two and four legs!I got totally spoiled, picked up at the airport (luxury), a lovely little apartment to stay in, all food sorted and yummy dinners! I didn’t have to do any organisation work (maybe I went to heaven) I just had to show up and do what I love most – TEACH 🥰Everyone was so open and willing to take in new knowledge and I really hope I left leaving everyone with a few new tools they can use to continue and develop their riding and partnership with their horse/s.This was my first time leaving my comfort zone of the place I normally go to in Trondheim – where I used to work and have been doing weekendclinics for, I think now 3/4 years.I was a bit worried, just because i get so anxious and shy around new people. But once I step in to that arena and see the horses, with the humans on top – all my worries goes away – this is my element, this is the one place I feel the most safe ❤️I feel this was a really important step for me and my future career – the belief of that

It will be good, I will enjoy it, because I am doing what I love & that brings me confidence

There is always things we can improve on, places we can grow, but that’s part of our whole life and future – this is important to feel I think. Comfortable with what you are doing and who you are, but always open for selfgrowth and a hunger to continue to learn!Anyway, that’s enough rambling for one post!Once again, a hugeThank You! To everyone who was involved in organising the clinic, supporting me, making sure everything ran smoothly and to everyone attending it!I had an absolutely wonderful time! And I hope I see you all again very soon!All my LoveTake CareAncha XO

What happens before the clinic?

So I’m off to Trondheim to have another weekend clinic. Which I love. More about that later.

What goes on before the clinic? If you’re interested in knowing then you should continue reading this blog.

First me and Mia look through dates to see when the competitions and other trainer’s are around. Once we’ve found a few dates we check with my main 2 yards to see if it is suitable for them. When we all agree on a possible date. I announce it on my Facebook group for people to see.

As soon as I see interest showing and it seems to be a date which works for most people – I book my flights.

I teach Friday, Saturday & Sunday. I also give my clients the option of choosing how many days they would like to ride & how long a lesson they’d like. I offer 30, 45 & 60 minute lessons. You can have private or group lessons, dressage and showjumping. So that is also something they have to let me know.

A bit closer to the date I ask to get to know specific wishes regarding times and then my jigsaw puzzle starts. Making everyone happy and get them in at a suitable time! Can be harder than it sounds.

I am also so lucky to have people who drives me from A to B so that also needs organising.

Fail and trail, eventually we get a schedule that suits everyone. Then it uploads to my Facebook group! Often some little tweaks will be needed. Things change and horses go lame, riders get sick or people ask if possible to have a last minute lesson. I try to be as accomodating as possible without messing people around – to much. I promise there is papers all over the house, I like to call it organised complete chaos, haha!

I stay with Mia whilst I am in Trondheim which is lovely.

I don’t tend to ask ahead what people would like to work on as I find it much nicer to talk to them in person.

And that’s what goes on before I actually get to go and do my lovely clinics.

I hope you liked to get an insight – was it like you thought?

Let me know.

Take Care
