Welcome to the Equiculture blog

By Jane Myers (MSc Equine) and Stuart Myers (my partner and best friend of more than 40 years), we have extensive experience in teaching horse owners how to manage their horse/s and the land they live on in a way that is good for people, horses and the wider environment, a win-win all for all.

I (Jane) am also known as The Horse Rider's Mechanic - I teach the subject of rider biomechanics.
