Anmore Dressage is expanding its calendar of specialist training events with an upcoming Polework Clinic led by Amy Hose on Saturday 31st May at Highbank, Clanfield, Hampshire. With one session already fully booked, places are limited for this popular event designed to support both horse and rider through engaging, structured pole exercises.

What Are the Benefits of Polework Clinics?

Polework training for horses has gained traction across equestrian disciplines for good reason. Backed by equine physiotherapists and experienced trainers, regular polework:

  • Encourages consistent rhythm and stride regulation
  • Improves balance and straightness through movement
  • Builds muscle tone and suppleness, particularly over the back and hindquarters
  • Stimulates the horse mentally, breaking up routine schooling
  • Provides low-impact strength training during rehab or the off-season

From novice combinations to competition-level pairs, pole clinics offer practical gains in proprioception, coordination and engagement—without adding pressure or complexity.

Amy Hose: Coaching With Calm Confidence

Amy Hose, a respected rider and trainer, works in close partnership with Anmore Dressage. Her role is a natural extension of Anmore’s values—technical quality, thoughtful training, and long-term development of horse and rider.

Amy brings an encouraging, considered approach to every session, building rider confidence and encouraging horses to think. Her clinics at Highbank reflect the wider ambition of Anmore: to foster a supportive community where learning is taken seriously, but never rushed.

During the clinic, riders will benefit from:

  • Small group format to suit each combination
  • A balance of pole layouts focusing on rhythm, control, and rider timing
  • Progressive exercises aimed at clear improvements, not quick fixes
