Erica Donnison

Hi! I’m Erica and I can visit your home or yard throughout Cumbria, Lancashire, North Yorkshire, Northumberland, Durham, Scottish Borders and Oban area of Argyll

I am based in South Cumbria and am happy to travel throughout the north of England and Scottish Borders. I visit the Oban area of Argyll on a regular basis. My aim is to help you and your horse to understand each other better so that you can work and play together more effectively and enjoy each other’s company!

I have experience of working with foals and young horses to help them understand how to be a well-balanced individual who wants to work with their human. I also have experience of working with and handling stallions.

I am also an Alexander Technique teacher which means that I can help you to be more aware of your own way of being around your horse. You can discover ways of being more relaxed, confident and in balance, as well as exploring and resolving those niggling aches and pains that can happen when working with your horse on the ground or in the saddle. The more poised and at ease you are, the more poised and at ease your horse will be too!

How I can help you…

i)  Individual one-to-one sessions at your location. These last around an hour and a half which include lots of short breaks to help you and your horse process what you are learning.

ii)  Half or full day group Tellington TTouch Training workshops at your yard. Either bodywork, groundwork or both

iii) Tellington TTouch Training with the Alexander Technique day workshops. These are designed to help both you and your horse to be more flexible, balanced and coordinated.

iv)  Introduction to Tellington TTouch Training bodywork workshops at Jigsaw in Mawdesley, Lancashire. These last 2 hours and give you a flavour of how simple and effective TTouch bodywork is to learn and then apply to your own horse.

I love running workshops at animal rescue centres so that the staff and rescued equines can experience the benefits of Tellington TTouch Training to help them be re-homed more quickly.

Please get in touch to chat through what you would like to explore with your horse.
