Teaching Riding as a Career: From A1 to Indispensable Coach
Ross Algar was born in Cambridgeshire in 1960. He started riding at the age of four and completed his first one-day event at the age of eight. He went on to represent his local Pony Club in both eventing and dressage championships and competed his own horses in affiliated events. At the age of nineteen he joined The King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery. He rode as part of their display team, and became an instructor at the Army School of Equitation at Melton Mowbray. After twelve years he decided to leave and become a freelance instructor. His wealth of experience and knowledge have made him an incredibly popular trainer. He has recently helped produce a British Rural Riders Team rider, a National Champion Dressage rider and a World Champion Single Horse Carriage Driver. He continues to compete himself.
