My experience with Alex and the girls from Hindle Horsemanship has been exceptional. I purchased the most incredible little filly ‘Kira’ from Alex. I found Alex to be honest, kind, trustworthy and very knowledgeable. Since purchasing the wonderful ‘Kira’ I have also attended one of Alex’s liberty clinics. Alex is extremely talented and skilled, her ability to understand and work with horses is truely impressive. I look forward to many more clinics with Alex and the team at Hindle Horsemanship. Highly recommended

I had my first horse riding lesson with Emma and it was a great experience. I was pretty nervous at first, but Emma was calm, patient, and explained everything really well. She clearly knows her stuff and made me feel comfortable right away. By the end of the lesson, I felt much more confident and even started to have fun! I’m excited for the next one. Highly recommend her if you’re new to riding.

Sarah T.

So thankful for Hindle Horsemanship. Their professionalism, care, and outstanding communication have made the experience exceptional. They have been so accommodating, and it’s clear how much passion and dedication they bring. My daughter has not stopped talking about her time there — it’s truly been a highlight for her, and I couldn’t be more grateful.

Tennielle S.

Have been very happy with what Isla has achieved during the lessons she has had with Shannon and more recently Carolina. Hope to have Isla visiting again next NSW school holidays

Suzanne W.

Since starting at Hindle their approach to my riding skills and goals has been nothing less than professional, caring and phenomenal. Grace W is an amazing instructor who has given me so much confidence in my riding since being back in the saddle. Her knowledge and her way of breaking things down to the individual rider is fantastic. If you are looking to get back in the saddle or to refine your skills, I couldn’t recommend Hindle Horsemanship more!

Aleisha C.

Great confidence builder lesson. Grace explains things in ways I can understand.

Heather P.

Recently done a clinic with Alex, i had an amazing time. She boosted my confidence and we learnt so much. Our horses also learnt a lot too in a kind and calm way. The facilities are amazing and it was a very frendly and welcoming environment. I highly recommend Hindle Horsemanship for your next clinic, lesson or agistment. Practical and professional horse advice and services

The girls had a great time. Anthony was very patient with them and showed them how to brush and saddle the horses. He knew exactly what they needed to make their experience wonderful.

My name is Enrique Esparza and this is my testimony of what I learned in the natural horsemanship and liberty clinic taught by Alexandra Hindle.

I learnt to observe and analyse the behaviour of the horse as well as working uniquely, according to the temperament of each individual horse. I also leant how to get their attention, gain their trust and how to work as a team. I learnt a lot about body language and how to control my mind and emotions, specifically how to be calm and concentrated. I learnt about a positive and negative reward system and how they can positively impact the horse's training.

I understood that there is no need to use violence to  work a horse in any activity or for any rider. I learned that with movements of my body and with my voice I can direct a horse without excessive pressure, etc.

What I enjoyed most about the clinic is the personalised attention and that Alexandra Hindle always encourages and helps you do the exercises and activities correctly- always safely. I also really liked that everything you learn in theory sessions, you put into practice. I learnt the importance of proper horse care and grooming.

I 100% recommend the natural horsemanship and liberty clinic taught by Alexandra- a great speaker, teacher and woman! Do not miss the opportunity to attend one of her clinics, it is an excellent experience!

My name is Paula and I met Alexandra about three years ago when she went to interview at the Alta Escuela Pedro Domecq as a professor.

I went out of curiosity to see her work and soon realised that she had a very special connection with horses. The truth is that I am one of the people that loves horses and like to see them treated well, so seeing what Alex did when working them interested me a lot- above all I liked to apply it with my own horses!

Her time in Domecq was unfortunately very short but day by day and from talk to talk we were learning little by little of her secrets and knowledge. Above all, we founded a very beautiful friendship.

People who have had the opportunity to meet Alex know that she is a very honest and very clear person! For those of us who love horses it is a privilege to have close people with the same taste and the same passion! Her experiences with horses and life experiences will teach you what makes a healthy relationship with your horse!

I am certain and I hope that we continue to have this friendship and that we always work in favor of the horses!

Paula G.

Absolutely fabulous apart from missing the driveway on my part but Anthony was just great and had known our slinky when she was a two year old we are definitely being weekly regulars moving forward 🥰 thanks for a great afternoon

Ineke B.

I enjoy the variety that Hindle Horsemanship has to offer- good agistment service, lovely and friendly instructors, as well as an interesting trail riding/clinic program. Not to mention a beautiful and scenic setting! Would recommend :)

Amanda

My experience in the Hindle Horsemanship school was a unique experience.Without a doubt Alexandra our trainer made sure that it was the best experience with horses and always aware of our development in each class.

I am forever grateful for her patience, support and advice in and out of class.​The natural horsemanship and trick training in Hindle Horsemanship is outstanding compared to other schools. This was evident through the compassion and communication between rider and horse- this was what I liked most about the program. The Hindle Horsemanship centre is amazing and I am grateful for all that I have learnt.

Thanks Alexandra!

Eva S.

Would highly recommend this place! They have indoor and outdoor Arenas.I haven’t ridden overly a lot in the last two years Had a lesson with Dina, she was so lovely, supportive and very encouraging.

Ellie M.

Hindle Horsemanship offers a horsey heaven to agist your horse at. Professional and personable, owner Alex is fantastic in making sure your horse is happy and content at all times. Beautiful facilities with a friendly team of instructors and well trained school horses Hindle Horsemanship is also a wonderful place for lessons.

My horse Raffy and I have loved our time agisting at Hindle Horsemanship and look forward to 2024 with Alex and her team 🦄⭐️

Summer C.

We are so happy with our experience at Hindle Horsemanship! Our daughter and her pony have improved in leaps and bounds as a result of the training and we have strong peace of mind knowing our pony is in safe hands as an agistee.

Bianca C.

Our 9yr old did the school holiday day camp and had the best day. It is 100% worth the money. Especially if your little one LOVES horses. They get 6 whole hours with them! They even did a scavenger hunt with the kids. 100% would recommend and we’ll be rebooking every holidays!

Anna C.

I learn something new every lesson - but the education extends beyond riding. You learn about horses, training techniques, equipment and everything equine, and you even learn more about yourself. Highly recommend!

Kylee V.

Alex really knows her stuff! Great with my daughter, so patient and worked well with her, can't rate Alex and Hindle Horsemanship enough.

Rachel C.

Lilly was absolutely brilliant with our talkative 4yr old, would recommend without hesitation and definitely will be going back.

Helen B.

We love Hindle Horsemanship! We have taken lessons and attended the kids’ holiday camp. Alex has a great team of instructors for every level of rider, and the horses are happy and well-loved. 👍👍🐎

Katey P.

The team at Hindle Horsemanship were great to deal with from start to finish. Organised my 9yo daughter's first ever horse ride. The instructor was patient and encouraging. Overall a great experience and will likely continue with lessons. I would definitely recommend for anyone in the Toowoomba / Highfields region.

Megan D.

The huge indoor arena was perfect for the rainy day. Progress and learning every visit.

Lorraine C.

Friendly and caring staff made us feel welcome as first timers. Beautiful facilities and we were paired with a lovely, sensitive horse perfectly suited for a beginner. Drama-free booking & payment. Thanks you.

Stephanie T.

It was incredible to see Álex work, the way she communicates and understands the horses is remarkable. She was always very attentive, taking the time to work with each of those who attended the clinic and asking if we had any questions.

She was always very relaxed and confident, which helped us function better. It was a fantastic clinic, Alex definitely knows what she's talking about and has a knack for working with horses and people.

I loved it and for sure I will return to one ofher other clinics

Constanza E.

Great 1st lesson with Hindle Horsemanship. Her instructor was patient, kind, positive and gave great feedback to help correct my daughter on each skill that needed extra practise.

Georgie R.

Great lesson with a guest instructor. Well explained tasks and excellent feedback. An excellent opportunity to receive tuition from a national champion.

Jodie F.

How special to watch my 2 grandkids have their first riding lesson. They were each allocated a well trained horse & an instructor who guided them through the basics of grooming, tacking up, leading, riding & safety. The instructors were both patient, kind & friendly. I was surprised at how far my grandchildren's riding skills progressed in that 1 hr. Thank you Hindle Horsemanship for your professionalism, & fabulous facilities, we hope to be back😊

Sue M.

Fantastic instructors and great horses. Highly recommend this riding school to anyone.
