As a competitive rider, full time coach and listed dressage judge, Ali Dane holds a keen interest in helping fellow equestrians achieve their goals. The importance of unmounted assistance is now widely recognised as an integral part of training. Having recently obtained planning permission for an ‘Equestrian Education and Wellness Centre’ at her base in Oxfordshire, work has begun to create a practical, yet welcoming space in which to hold unmounted activities, including Pilates and other fitness classes, educational courses and lectures, therapies (physio, chiropractic, osteopathy), video analysis, sport psychology sessions, and much more.
