On leaving school she went to train professionally at Harrogate Equestrian Centre to gain her B.H.S.A.I Qualification. Returning to Scotland she set up her own yard and trained her horses in Eventing and team chasing.

This was when Debbie got offered a life changing opportunity to become a working pupil to F.E.I 5 star Olympic dressage judge Stephen Clarke. She took her then, event horse Roxanne and within 3 Years under Stephen’s mentorship they progressed and competed through the levels to Grand Prix Level.

She has continued to train her own horses from youngsters to Grand Prix, competing them successfully at every level. She got selected for a small group of youngish Trainers along with Carl Hester and this allowed her to travel in Europe visiting top Dressage yards, auctions and Studs, furthering her wealth of knowledge .One of her passions is Dressage to music and enjoys putting her and her clients horses tests together as well as Riding Club and pony club Quadrilles.

What my clients say...

Tracey Sellers
I have been training with Debbie for a number of years with my older horse and I have been thrilled with the progress and empathy. Debbie knows when to push and when to break it back down for the rider without distressing the horse.

When I purchased my second horse, the understanding and confidence that Debbie’s methods have brought about are outstanding.

I have two confident and willing horses who are happy to try their hearts out. Both have exceeded my expectations and I look forward to what we can all achieve together ( including Debbie as she is an integral part of the team.)

She has the knack of getting straight to the heart of the matter and is able to communicate clearly and concisely to riders how they can develop their horse’s potential, whatever level they are working at.

Her warmth,empathy and humour enable her to engage with rider’s and put them at ease,safe in the knowledge that her love of horses and her desire to create the horse as A”Happy Athlete” will ensure correct training that stands the test of time. I cannot recommend Debbie highly enough.

I have known Debbie since she was working for Stephen Clarke and watched her progress to her present status as a B.D list one judge and Grand Prix rider. All this has been achieved with a sense of humour and a commitment to creating a partnership between horse and rider.

Since I opened New Barn as a training facility she has held regular clinics here. Her systematic training methods and style enables riders of all levels to progress calmly and confidently.Leisure riders ,Pony Club and competition riders all speak highly of Debbie, the results speak for themselves.

Her clients can be seen at all dressage championships and appreciate the support she provides. She is now involved in the coaching of current judges and hold informative workshops.
Fiona Fletcher
Debbie is an outstanding instructor. Her years of experience and understanding shine through in her enthusiasm and ability to help all levels of horse and rider attain connection and harmony, building confidence in that partnership. It is with Debbie’s gentle guidance, her exceptional understanding of the capacity and capability of horse and rider, that my beautiful 25 year old Grey ISH achieved 1st at Novice at the Veteran Championship; my 15 year old German Warmblood achieved 7th at the PetPlan Championship in FSM; and we are currently developing my partnership with a talented (hot) 10 year old Chestnut Mare working at Advanced Medium. I love my lessons with Debbie and with her help I am excited at what might be achieved.
