Jo Cooper
I have been professionally involved with horses since leaving school, mainly through eventing. I trained originally with the Wiegersma family for 4 years, where I produced and competed many young horses, followed by 2 years with Virginia Holgate /Leng where I was head girl, and 2nd jockey. I have competed to International Advanced level eventing.
In more recent years I have put my time and effort into helping my 3 children with their competition horses. William was reserve for the Junior European Event Championships in 2004 (he is now an Equine Dentist). Laurie represented Great Britain at Avenche Switzerland in 2006, and finished 3rd. Following this she was selected for the Junior European championships 2006 where she was 9th individually. My youngest daughter Katy is also on track for a successful career!
I enjoy teaching all ages and standards in Dressage, Show Jumping, and Cross Country, and have applied to take my UK coaching certificate .
