Student Profile
Stephanie Toms
Course of Study: Cert 3 Sports Coaching Equestrian
What inspired you to study this course?
Since I turned 8 it has always been my goal to be a riding instructor and horse trainer. The course has been particularly helpful in starting my own lesson business.
What do you do with your horse?
Mainly showjumping, but we like to try a bit of everything! I find it fun for both horse and rider to keep mixing it up a bit. I particularly enjoy doing bareback, bridleless, tackles and liberty work with my horses.
If you were a millionaire, what dream plan do you have for you and your horse?
My ultimate goal is to start my own horse training and riding lesson business, and rescue and rehome neglected horses, as well as go on to compete more regularly in showjumping. I think my horses would like me to buy them plenty of treats 🙂
What did you enjoy about your study with International Horse College?
I liked that it was online and I could do a large part of the course from anywhere with an internet connection! It was also fun to meet like minded people and make connections.
What is in the future for you in the equine industry?
Slowly working on growing my lesson business and going into horse training/starting professionally.
What would you say to someone who is thinking about doing a course with International Horse College?
Definitely check it out, there are so many different courses and different options, so it’s easy to find something that works for you. Good luck!
