Private Lessons

I had the opportunity to spend 4 days with Chris and his horses and increased my knowledge of Monty Robert’s methods.  I found Chris to be highly professional, extremely knowledgeable and friendly.  No question was too small for him to answer and he covered the big questions of psychology with depth and practicality.
He made sure I had a range of horses to work with and kept the lessons at a level I could understand, though still stretched my ability.   He is very clear at explaining  WHY we were doing things which is invaluable and quite often missed out by most instructors.   Chris is at the top of his field and I would highly recommend him and his courses.

Chris’ knowledge of horses and their behaviours is absolutely mind blowing. Spending the last week with him has really and truly opened my eyes to how things can be done differently and more effectively. The content covers so many interesting topics and the delivery makes it easy to understand and apply. His horses are also incredible teachers and between them all, I’ve been able to learn / try something that I wouldn’t necessarily have been able to in my usual riding environment.
You don’t need to be “horsey” to be able to learn an awful lot, not just about horses but yourself too.

Thank you and yes, the weekend was fantastic.
Got out of it a lot more than I thought (a lot!), and really enjoyed it.
I think my latent learning will be working overtime for some time yet to process all that information!
It reminded me why I got hooked on Monty’s style of learning…everything is done for a reason and it all comes back to the basics. Also great balance of theory and practical.

The horse wife ( 🐴Pauline Geere) & i Just had a really fantastic full on weekend of learning Equus! I’m always searching for more knowledge to deepen my understanding of communication with animals in a way they understand…Chris Morris taught us so many valuable things that i will now put into practice on a daily basis! My whole thinking of my every day interactions have changed! some of the things I’ve learnt have blown my mind! I’ve come away with a new & deeper understanding …( & 🧠 fry 🤣)… thank you Chris! We will be back for more courses … can’t recommend you highly enough!

I don’t have enough superlatives to do justice to how engaging, thought-provoking and useful the Join-Up course was!  Chris has the ability to share his extensive knowledge and wisdom in a relaxed way that takes you on an incremental voyage of discovery from day one to day three; a mixture of theory and practice that leaves you feeling confident and eager to learn more. He tailored his approach to meet our needs and responded to all our questions with considered and helpful insights and reflections.  I’m aghast that we covered so much in such a short space of time and just wish that I’d known all this earlier.  An absolute must for anyone interested in riding or working with horses. Thanks Chris!

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the taster day on Saturday.!
In particular, I was really impressed with the way in which you delivered the content on the day. It’s very difficult these days to find someone who is easy to understand, is professional – and who doesn’t judge.

I have just done a 3 day join-up course with Chris. This was my first experience of doing any sort of course with horses. Chris is a superb teacher, patient, calm, breaking thinks down into small sections and enabling me to do things I would not have believed possible. Thank you so much and to the lovely assistants Badger, Yazz and Fox 😊

Hi Chris

I am thrilled not to mention amazed with how well Theo did yesterday considering the weather.  I tried him this evening and he went straight in with no hesitation.
Can’t thank you enough for your help. You are a legend??
Some of the liveries want to learn more, perhaps a half day at our yard when the weather is a bit more reliable..
