About Naomi
Naomi’s love of horses began as a vey young child, in her teenage years she was a member of the South Adelaide Riding Club (Tom Roberts was their chief instructor), the Dressage Club of South Australia (DCSA) and the South Australian Dressage Association (SADA). Naomi now has Dressage ponies a Welsh Section D and a young (4-year-old) Trakehner x Welsh Section B pony that she has just started training under saddle: she is a consistent and successful dressage competitor. Naomi’s interest in Equitation Science International (ESI) has its roots in the work that Tom Roberts (or Robbie as he was affectionately known) provided at Riding Club and the training days he conducted at DCSA. Robbie invited his students to think about how and why their horse responded to differing stimuli.
Naomi is an internationally accredited business coach and mediator. Naomi has served on several dressage committees and boards, in addition to being frequently called upon to judge and coach dressage.
