Yggdrasil Equestrian Training - Amber Smeenk

I was born in the Hague in the Netherlands and as a tiny child in a pram was already obsessed with horses. Beautiful police horses and nothing better than them putting their big soft noses in my pram! It took years for my parents to give in to my begging for horse riding lessons and I can still recall the day my mum asked me to get the yellow pages for her and me asking her why she wanted them. She answered she was going to ring the riding school and book me lessons and I could not believe my ears!

Years later my parents told me they had hoped it would all end with me falling off and losing interest in riding. It did not quite go to their plan!
