Tanya has been my riding instructor for over two years, and my riding and confidence have improved massively in that time. Tanya is an absolute professional - hugely knowledgable and completely reliable, but she is also very smart, and adapts her teaching to what each rider needs. And - so important this - she cares about the horses, not just the rider. Excellent all round!

My two daughters and I have known Tanya over 15 years . She is very professional, approachable and always willing to help and advise on any equestrian matter at any level. We have Three horses and Tanya has been an amazing support with our dressage , cross-country and show jumping.
She is not just a great instructor, Tanya has a positive attitude and is there for your riding, ground work of or general stable management.
I would highly recommend Tanya with any child or adult whom are wanting a very experienced, friendly, horse loving riding instructor.

When I first got my beautiful Irish mare, Ghost, I was a nervous wreck after losing all confidence with a challenging horse previously. I was a pretty tough customer and many was the time that Tanya would arrive for my lesson to find I'd worked myself into a stew, unable to even tack up and get on. But thankfully she persevered! Tanya has her own highly effective personal blend of positivity and tough love; thanks to her hard work and fondness for a challenge, we've gone on to enjoy camps, competed successfully and hacked for miles around. In addition, Tanya has schooled and hacked Ghost, ironing out some of the quirks that she carried with her from her hunting past and improving her fitness and flexibility. Tanya is professional, knowledgeable, effective and reliable. But, most importantly, I really wouldn't trust anyone else with my wonderful Ghost. With Tanya, I know that my horse is in the best of hands.

Tanya Hollingworth has helped keep my Fell Pony well schooled fit and healthy. Tanya has taught him to do flying changes any dressage rider would be proud of. Also helping getting him ready for local county shows and showing him under saddle with great success.( Red Rosettes). Couple of years ago I had him broken to harness which Tanya has helped, driving out with me. Tanya is very knowledgeable. Highly Recommended

Tanya Hollingworth has been loading for me for double gun days on grouse, partridge and pheasant for the last 7 years.
She is great company and I have recommended her to friends of mine. She has never disappointed them or me. Both her coaching and loading is of the highest class. She is both very quick at loading and will carry kit up hills faster than most men.
Many who have seen her load for me have employed her subsequently.
Tanya has a full hgv licence and has driven me many many miles from the north of Scotland to Wales and the isle of Wight. Obviously to a lot of English shoots too.
She comes way more than highly recommended.

Tanya has been coaching my 4 daughters and I for nearly 14 years. Helping my girls go from first canter to pony club and competing, and from 12hh to 16.2hh… she’s provided steady and reliable positive encouragement through wobbles and falls, with a blend of warmth, compassion, fun, grit and a bit of tough love when necessary. At times we’ve had up to 9 horses and ponies and she’s always been available with advice, insight and the benefit of her vast experience.
My daughters have also learned to shoot with Tanya and had lots of fun. She always makes every lesson a great experience while keeping everyone absolutely focused on safety and good shooting etiquette.
She’s literally a member of the family.
