CHRISTINE THOMPSON

Originally from the UK, Christine spent most of her spare time as a teenager at her local riding school where she took her British Horse Society horse management, riding and coaching certificates. Wanting to increase her equine knowledge, she went to Hartpury College to undertake an equine science degree, where she became fascinated with the health & rehabilitation aspect of horse management. Since then, Christine has successfully taken many equine therapy related qualifications, and having more recently developed a strong interest in the influence of the rider on the horse, is now undertaking human related qualifications in remedial massage and osteopathy.

Having owned and worked with horses for many years, Christine understands the requirements of multiple disciplines within equestrian sport, fitness and training schedules and the importance of maintaining your horses peak physical and mental condition whether you are riding for pleasure or at an elite level.
