Christina De’Ath

I am the daughter of Bryan and Tish and am a British Horse Society Accredited Professional Coach in Complete Horsemanship (Stage 3).

I am Yard Manager at Moat Farm Riding Centre and also look after my two daughters event horses.

I have been teaching since I was 16 years old and in my youth was a keen member of the local Pony Club Centre branch and local Riding club, where I competed in many teams such as showjumping at Hickstead and the Pony Club Show jumping team competition held at Burghley Horse Trials as well as competing at the National Riding Club Championships in Malvern.

My husband Adam and I have 3 children William, Freya and Faith and they have all grown up around the ponies, learning to ride and taking part in Pony Club activities.

Freya and Faith are active members of their local branch of The Pony Club.

Encouraging the riders and watching their confidence grow is so rewarding and I feel very lucky to coach riders in both riding and caring for ponies.

I enjoy the admin side of running a Riding Centre as well as coaching the children in occasional riding sessions.
