Our Story
Once a little girl crazy about horses, Lynsey Walker's mum signed her up for lessons at the local riding school and many years were spent happily attending lessons and fun days. But after finally moving onto her own horse, she was in for a rude awakening. It turns out all those years in the saddle at a riding school hadn't actually taught her very much about the technical side of riding. Competing against others her age and with the same number of years in the saddle, Lynsey was far behind her peers. She threw herself into a career as a groom and worked hard at goals, riding daily for years and years, eventually working under some of Australia's top riders and becoming a sought after professional in her field.
After a non riding related spinal injury forced her to reassess her professional riding goals, Lynsey began coaching. Many of her students were very successful in the show and dressage rings, but she continued to run into the same phenomenon; those that had learnt at riding schools were far behind their peers. So in 2015, Ravens Park Equestrian Centre was born. It has since grown to employ multiple instructors from all sorts of backgrounds and disciplines and is highly regarded by many professional riders and judges.
Lynsey has since designed a curriculum that has circulated to other riding schools all around, in an effort to lift the standard of teaching within the industry.
