Are you the owner of Locksley Stud?
Locksley Stud is a reputable horse riding school located in Locksley, Australia. Established in 2015, the school is situated on a spacious 150-acre property, providing ample space for the breeding, raising, and training of Australian Warmblood and Hanoverian/Rhinland horses.
At Locksley Stud, the focus is entirely on the horses. Following the principles of FEI (2003), the school aims to achieve harmonious development in the physique and abilities of the horses. This approach ensures that the horses are calm, supple, loose, and flexible, while also being confident, attentive, and keen. Such well-rounded training enables the horse to establish a perfect understanding with the rider, forming the core essence of Dressage.
Louise Taylor, the trained and experienced horse riding instructor and dressage trainer at Locksley Stud, is a qualified NCAS AHRC Level 1 coach. With a strong passion for dressage and a desire to achieve great success, Louise has honed her expertise by working and training with highly talented riders and coaches. Her comprehensive understanding of the foundations of dressage has enabled her to successfully start, train, and compete with performance horses. Throughout this process, Louise has developed deep bonds with the horses, making her teaching journey incredibly rewarding.

Additionally, group lessons, catering to 2–4 riders, are priced at $35 per rider for a one-hour session.
