Hi, I’m Stacey Jayne Hargreaves, a qualified equestrian instructor based in Stoke-on-Trent.

I am a qualified Stage 2 Riding Instructor & I specialise in teaching beginners and novice riders, helping people take their first steps into the amazing world of horses with confidence!

My lessons are shaped by a mix of traditional horsemanship and more natural, modern approaches. I believe in being patient, kind and supportive—because when both rider and horse feel relaxed and understood, real progress happens.

Over the years I’ve trained and ridden at schools across the area, worked toward BHS Stage qualifications, and gained experience with a wide variety of horses and teaching styles. All of that has influenced how I teach today: a focus on safety, communication and respect for the horse.

Whether you’re brand new to the saddle or looking to build on what you already know, my goal is to make your lessons enjoyable, confidence-building and tailored to you.
