INFORMATION ABOUT OUR JUDGES:

Phoebe Foulkes: I am a full time dressage competitor, coach and trainer, having competed through the levels up to FEI Medium Tour. Additionally, I am also a qualified F level (Novice level) Judge and in the process of upgrading to Elementary level. The combination of coaching and judging has given me a wider insight and knowledge of the sport which I endeavour to pass onto riders that I coach. I love helping riders and always aim to provide constructive and positive feedback while teaching and judging.

Carly Boon: Carly has been judging since 2009, and is currently an E level judge (Elementary level), actively working to upgrade. She enjoys building camaraderie and growth in the Dressage sport, and when not judging, is busy working with her two mares who keep her learning.
