- ABOUT The Owner -

I have been involved with horses since I was 10 years of age. From the very first time I sat on a horse I knew they would be a huge part of my life. Having left school I decided to go to college to study for my exams, however being stuck in a class room just wasn't for me, so I decided to look for work and got a job on a Livery Yard were my working career with horses took off.

Working full time I also had my own horses to look after. I thoroughly enjoyed competing British Dressage and also jumping. I was out competing nearly every weekend doing well, coming home with over 60% in Prelim and Novice BD Classes.

Because I had a love of dressage, I decided to look for a role within my chosen discipline and moved me and my horses to Worcestershire to do a Dressage Apprenticeship with Roger Gregory. Here I spent a year being sole charge groom, looking after 14 horses, travelling to shows, lessons with roger and getting a huge amount of experience. Once I had finished the apprenticeship, I decided to move back home and concentrate on getting my exams. I successfully got a job on a Riding School were I worked and trained for my BHS Exams, I gained my BHS Stage 1, BHS Stage 2 and Riding and Road Safety.

I then decided to go it alone and set up working for myself as a Freelance Groom, having spoken to a few people who had mentioned how hard it is to find someone who you can trust when as a owner you are struggling and need help. That's when I set up Amie Equestrian. It didn't take me long to get busy and before I knew it I was working 7 days a week. And as busy as what I was, I still managed to train and gain my BHSPTT and UKCC Level 2.

I have helped Owners through their busiest of times and will continue to do so and I hope your one of them!

I look forward to meeting you and your horses.

Amie Foster :)
