Zimbabwean Jaime Lemmer is general manager at Al Ruwayyah track livery in Dubai. Over the past decade she has successfully transformed this once traditional livery yard into a (barefoot) track system. And with surprisingly (NO, WE’RE NOT SURPRISED) great results!

Despite the incredibly hot Summers typical for the Middle East, the difficulties of controlling the quality of feeds and forage, the horses at Al Ruwayyah live outside most of the year where they forage and mingle in a group of plus 30 horses.

Jaime is also the stables hoof care provider who actively takes her Al Ruwayyah crew out on desert hacks and various equestrian competitions.

Join us and listen to her story and experiences of running a track livery in the UAE!

The Paddock Paradise Podcast is not chained to a location or desk of some sort, so when we were in the UK for a clinic we could not resist paying a visit to Alyson and Maddie who own and operate PB Paddock Paradise Track livery in Newport.

We sat down for a little one -n-one.. well two actually and discussed Paddock Paradise, natural horse care and of course the WHY of operating a livery yard like this with Alyson and her daughter Maddie, both devoted to helping horses and spreading the word of natural care for equines.

IMPORTANT NOTE: the clinic dates mentioned at the very end of this interview have been set back to December. Please follow our page for more details about our scheduled events at www.paddockparadiseacademy.com

Evelien Riesmeijer started her journey into Natural Horse Care in 2018. Coming from a family of professional showjumpers, Evelien is no stranger to the process horse owners go through when they are first introduced to the principles of natural horse care.

In 2020 she joined Jaime Jacksons program in The Netherlands. Her practice has grown exponentially in the past two years, and she is now ready to take on students of the Paddock Paradise Academy as they work their way through our training program.
