Ride Smarter and Safer with Laura Peters Equestrian.
Welcome, I'm just going to do a quick intro to me and the services I offer.
I started horse riding many many years ago when I was given my first lesson at a local riding school as a birthday present and from that day on I was hooked and all I could talk about was horses. When I was 18 I finally bought my first horse Bella, Bella was quirky to say the least but great fun and we learnt and did lot's together from fun rides, showing, endurance riding and mainly Dressage which she loved, and then in retirement she became Charlie's (my other horses) babysitter out hacking for the last few years. Sadly I lost Bella to old age last year 💕
After working and teaching in a Riding School for 7 years I decided to go to University so I started at Myerscough College and graduated in 2018 with a 1st class BSc (Hons) Equine Science degree, I then decided to carry on for another year and graduated in 2019 with a Masters Degree in Equine Science. Since graduating I continued to do a bit of teaching with a few regular riders whilst working at Saddles Direct until early 2023 to start up my own businesses.
I am now available for lessons on your own horse at your own yard for flat and jumping lessons. In May/June 2023 I passed my Master Saddle Fitting Consultant (MSFC) practical and theory exams in France and am now a qualified saddle fitter. I am able to check your current saddle, offer flocking adjustments, full reflocking service, girth strap repairs, and source and fit new and used saddles depending on your preference and budget. I am approved and listed on the Equine Fitters Directory which is an independent providing a searchable database of validated Equine Fitters.
I now own 2 horses Charlie and Basil who I share with a friend. Charlie is pictured below, he is a 5 year old Irish Draught x Thoroughbred who I have owned for 2 years, Charlie loves jumping and playing with my other horse Basil. Basil is new to the team, he is a 4 year old ex-racehorse who is in the process of being reschooled. Follow all of their progress and antics on my Instagram page.
I also love cakes so if I'm not riding I am usually found in the kitchen decorating cakes, take a look at my cakes on Facebook at Top Tier Cakes by Laura or Instagram at top.tier.cakes.by.laura
