The Team at TDS Riding School, Penkridge

The Team

Behind the success of TDS is a small but dedicated team, each one of which, in their own way, contribute to the  high standard of professional service we give our clients, (both human and equine!)

DENISE the proprietor of TDS Riding Centre, heads the team, and oversees the training and development of the schoolmaster horses, as well as training and competing her own horses. Husband Kieron provides never- ending support, helping daily on the yard, hacking and jumping the horses to make sure they get plenty of variety and interest in their work. Denise also oversees the physical development program for all the horses in her care, including fittening work  and any physical therapies required.

She also ensures that the other coaches and working pupils get plenty of quality training, and that they develop as riders as well as individuals.

CLARE is our yard manager and has been with us since 2018. She has worked with horses since she was 16. She loves developing horses and riders training.

NIKKI is the longest-standing staff member at TDS. She spends her working week coaching, treating/massaging the horses and keeping up to date with everything in the office.

CHLOE, EMMA F, ZOE O, ZOE H, EMMA P, DANNI, NICKY D, JESS, KEELY, MAYA AND BETH run the yard smoothly and efficiently to make sure that staff, horses and clients are their happiest and perform to their best! Often seen rushing around to make sure the horses can stay as relaxed and well cared for as possible.
