enough horses to make the Olympics in eventing. After I
finished my year 12 exams, I was lucky enough to meet
Phil and Mary Hockney who bought Billy Bathgate for me
and sent me to train under Heath and Rozzie Ryan for
two  years.  During  this time I went from being a pony
club rider to almost making the Sydney 2000 Olympics.  
Unfortunately Billy was injured which put us out of the
running.  I then moved back to Harden to ride, train and
teach all I have learned under these amazing riders and
coaches.

With almost eight years of professional competition and
coaching experience under my belt, I am always trying to
improve myself for future competitions and  improve my
coaching skills with the vision of becoming a NCAS level
2 instructor in the near future.
Natalie Blundell Equestrian centre offers professional, personal schooling of horses from an early age up to experienced
or green horses needing re-education. The facilities include an all weather surface outdoor arena, stables and safe
paddocks. We endeavour to give your horse the best possible chance in becoming a superstar or just point you and your
horse in the right direction for future fun and enjoyment.

Feedback from Clients


Dear Nat

I am writing to let you know how much Bill and Leonie enjoyed the
clinic they did with you at Harden. They both got so much out of the cross
country session and they also learned new things in both dressage
and showjumping. Your encouraging, no pressure approach meant they could
work at the level at which they were comfortable, but with expert
supervision.

We also greatly appreciate the way your interest does not stop at the
end of a clinic. You have always been willing to give help and advice
when we see you at competitions.

I would recommend your clinics to riders at all levels.

Kind regards
Sandra Noble

Natalie Blundell has been an extremely important member of the Black Horse Manor team for several years now as one of our main trainers and
competition riders.  Natalie performed a wonderful job with our imported Spanish stallion, Galero XIV before injury forced us to retire him from competition
and more recently Natalie commenced training of our up and coming dressage hopeful, BHM Black Elegancia.  We look forward to continuing our
partnership with Natalie and have no hesitation in recommending Natalie as a trainer, starter of young horses and riding instructor.
