“Routines are important, not only for us, but they give great comfort to horses.” – Nikki Alvin-Smith
Paul & Nikki Alvin-Smith of Willowview Hill Farm, are British international-level Grand Prix trainers who have successfully competed in Europe to scores over 72% at Grand Prix. This husband and wife team have also trained several horses of various breeds from birth to Grand Prix, and trained many students up through the ranks of dressage in their careers. While both have worked with more than a few icons in the dressage world, their training has been most influenced by their work with Olympic trainer, Raul de Leon, and Grand Master Herbert Rehbein, of Germany.
In this episode, I chat with Nikki Alvin-Smith about their dressage training program and how their farm stable routine supports their equine athletes at the highest level.
