Certified Instructors

After serving passengers in high altitudes for nine years, Jenny decided to make a complete change in her career. Horses, that for several years had been a wonderful hobby, started to become the main thing in life. The passion to work with remedial horses and youngsters in a non violent way took her to Flag Is Up Farms in October 2009. After this, an extended two years adventure in Transylvania in Romania took place working at a ranch with a huge variety of horses. After reaching her goal to become a Certified Monty Roberts Instructor in 2011, she has been running Equus Finland introducing Monty´s concepts specially in Finland. In 2020 Jenny also became an Osteopath D.O, BSc, so these days Equus Finland offers both courses, lessons as well as osteopathic treatments for both humans and horses, with a specialty in helping riders to find a more harmonious communication with their horses. Equus Finland is from 2020 based in Alingsås, Sweden but regular visits to Finland still take place. Jenny is also a member of the Monty Roberts Instructors Committee.

Jo has been around horses and ridden for pleasure all of her life. At Oxford University she rode for the squad doing combined dressage and show jumping competitions. Jo pursued a career in Finance in London for 10 years before moving to South West France. She then brought a 3yo grey Arab Stallion who proved to be quite a handful, so she enrolled in some Monty Roberts courses in the UK. These techniques completely transformed the relationship she had with her horse allowing her to compete Internationally in Endurance with him – so she became determined to undertake all the training to become an Instructor. Jo became an Instructor in early 2010. Jo has now returned to the UK and her main focus is running a Highland pony stud bringing up the youngsters using Monty's techniques. Jo is available for one to one sessions and to run the Join-Up®, Long Lining and the Monty Roberts Introductory Course of Horsemanship at your facilities.

Chris has a lifelong passion and fascination with the animal world. After studying animal biology and physiology at university his interest in the Monty Roberts methods grew because it provided answers to questions of why horses behave the way they do, which professional trainers had been unable to answer.

This culminated in Monty inviting him to undertake the instructors internship at Flag Is Up Farms and becoming a certified instructor in September 2012.

There is not a more amazing moment than the moment of Join-Up. That is what Brenda Kooiman discovered about 8 years ago, when she took the first steps of Join-Up with a 4-year-old horse after reading Monty’s textbook, From My hands to Yours. At that moment she fell in love with these methods and when she moved to America two years later for work, she started a life-changing study of Monty Roberts concepts. Now, four years later, after working with lots of horses with problems she can call herself, with pride, a Monty Roberts Certified Instructor. Now she is back in the Netherlands, creating “a better place for horses and people, too”.

When Monty came to Sweden for the first time I went to see his demo. I saw something I had never seen before, a unique communication based on both his and the horses terms. I have been a hobby rider all my life and felt that something was missing in the communication between a human and a horse. When I saw Monty´s demo I knew what to search for. All this became very obvious when I bought a tricky young Thoroughbred that required a soft approach in order to get things done in a safe way for both of us. I applied his methods and it worked perfectly. I decided to make a change in my life after spending my whole working life in the corporate world.  I became a student again. I took the Monty Roberts Introductory course in Sweden with Ann Lindberg in 2014 and went on to do all the remaining exams and courses at Monty’s Flag Is Up Farms in Solvang, California.  I got my instructor certification in March 2018.  I am a believer of the method Join-Up® and I am determined to make this world a better place for horses and humans. I have been using the method with refugee children and horses in Stockholm and could see an improvement in the behavior of the children. I want to introduce the Join-Up® method to people through the Lead-Up program and show them how to better understand horses to improve their communication skills and gain confidence. I am based in Stockholm and Gotland.
