Ella has over 20 years’ equine experience; including competing with her own horses up to Advanced-Medium level Dressage, Novice Eventing and Foxhunter Showjumping.

She has spent time as a working pupil for an international 4* event rider and hence has in-depth knowledge and experience of the training requirements for the elite horse and rider. She has also taught dressage to novice horses and riders. Ella feels it is important to understand the rider’s expectations and requirements which, when combined with her in depth knowledge of best-application to horses, is invaluable for developing individually tailored rehabilitation/exercise programmes.

Ella’s partnership with Equiseat Aid was a natural fit, seamlessly aligning with her commitment to achieving long-term straightness and balance. She has already integrated the product into her hands-on physio treatments for both horse and rider, using it as a valuable tool to enhance her work. As a user herself, Ella is uniquely positioned to recommend Equiseat Aid with firsthand insight into its benefits for her clients. 

We're thrilled to welcome Ella to the Equiseat Aid family as an Area Specialist, where her skills and expertise will be a fantastic addition.  Ella covers Suffolk, North Essex and South Norfolk.
