25.01.2022 Dalson Park is looking to hire a part time Coach. We dont hire coaches very often as our coaches become part of the family and stay with us for years. We currently have one coach going on maternity leave and one retiring due to health concerns. We are looking for a versatile fun loving coach, with an eye for safety and correct teaching. You must be happy to teach complete beginners on the lunge through to elementary level dressage. Confident to teach groups of up to 6 rider...s. You must have a good knowledge of the dressage training scale and be happy to teach low level jumping. We are looking for a coach to teach every second Sunday (possibly more Sundays if available). Also to teach some weekday mornings (by negotiation). Extra shifts when other coaches on holiday, or when we have pony camps etc. Pay to be negotiated commensurate with experience.

10.01.2022 Chief instructor asleep on the job!!#Dalson Park fun #horses

09.01.2022 What a Sunday afternoon. Started with a lovely afternoon tea, and a sneaky glass of wine, with some friends for a catch up. Only for a client to arrive to visit her horse to tell us that there was water gushing down our front stairs! Turns out the mains water outside our property had burst! Emergency calls to council followed (council were fantastic) but it was 9.30 before all was fixed. So please excuse us while we get the clean up organised. We are a little bit of a mess!!

09.01.2022 Malibu Our little 14.1hh Quarterhorse cross mare, Malibu came to us from an Agister that decided that they didnt have time to own a horse anymore. So we purchased her knowing she would be a great addition to the school. she can be a little bit of a pocket rocket if you jazz her up but prefers to be fairly steady. Malibu is a real sweetheart her strength is showing riders when they have a correct contact as she will happily start to come into a frame. She is comfortable to ride and really loves cuddles. Tell us your experiences with Malibu.

07.01.2022 Tom Tom is what we call an original!! Tom was already here at DP when we took over the business in 2000. So he has been in the school for 20 plus years. Tom is a 15hh Anglo Arabian Gelding. Back in 2000 when we purchased DP I must admit to thinking Tom was CRAZY and not suited to the school, but the clients loved him, so he stayed. Tom has mellowed over the years and now in his old age only takes the Littles for their pony lessons and beginner groups (which he loves) as he d...oesnt have to work to hard!! Tom is great for showing riders when they are not in balance and pulling on his mouth. In his younger days he was a gun jumper, and had a great turn of speed. Tell us your memories of Tom and share any pictures you have.

05.01.2022 The start of another great week of riding!! Have an awesome week everyone!!

05.01.2022 We are very proud of our amazing School Horses here at DP. So, we are going to do a series where we tell you a little about these awesome horses. Feel free to share your experiences and photos of these amazing animals. Ken is a Clydesdale x Quarterhorse gelding around 15.2hh, he came to us as an uneducated slightly pushy fellow around 10 years ago. He has turned into on of the most valuable horses in the school. He is ridden by 5 year olds through to adults, he does dressage and jumps!! Just a great all rounder. He is great for teaching riders to steer as he loves to follow, but when you sit up and ride he is more than happy to be the leader. He shows the coach exactly what level the rider is and adjusts to his rider without hesitation. Tell us your favourite thing about Ken.

05.01.2022 Mack Mack is a part Percheron gelding standing 15.2hh high. Macks favourite past time is getting dirty!! (He keeps the stable hands busy!!) Mack is super comfortable to ride. He can be a little lazy at times but is easily tuned up if ridden properly. He adjusts to his rider quickly. Mack can test a riders steering and control especially if he is the leader. He is awesome for teaching riders to connect a horse leg to seat to hand. He is also a surprisingly goo jumper!! Which he quite likes!! Tell us why you like Mack!!

Happy for anyone to ride or cuddle him. He adapst easily to all levels and size of rider. He has a great attitude to work and loves tea...ching dressage his canter transitions are a highlight and is great for teaching riders to use their seat and legs not just their rein in a half halt. Tell us your memories and tales of your rides with Monty.
