Hi, I'm Louise Einchcomb, currently running Equine Distance Learning.

Horses have been a huge part of my life since I was nine years old, and I am passionate about helping people understand both horses and themselves. My background combines academic study, practical horse experience and coaching, allowing me to make equine learning accessible, engaging and relevant for learners of all ages.

I hold a BSc (Hons) in International Agricultural & Equine Business Management, an MSc in Applied Equine Science, and am a BHS Accredited Professional Coach. I am also an APEC Advanced Coach, Master NLP Practitioner and Trainer of Hypnosis, specialising in rider confidence, mindset and horse behaviour.

Through Equine Distance Learning, I support home educated learners, horse owners and aspiring equestrians to develop their knowledge through flexible online courses that can be studied from home and at a pace that suits the individual. We work with learners from a wide range of backgrounds, including many with additional educational needs, and pride ourselves on providing supportive, personalised tutor guidance.

As both an educator and a parent, I understand the importance of finding learning opportunities that genuinely engage children and young people. Horses provide a wonderful way to inspire curiosity, build confidence and develop independent learning skills, and it's a privilege to help learners pursue their passion while gaining valuable knowledge and recognised certificates.

I look forward to supporting more home educating families on their equestrian learning journey.
