About Ian…

Ian Vandenberghe, based at Hartsop Farm, Witney, has a lifetime of equine experience in many areas including; dressage, stud management, foal handling, farriery and performance nutrition. Ian has worked with Monty Roberts & Kelly Marks since 1993; playing a key role in the development of the first ever training courses in Montys methods. He is one of Monty’s ‘Master Instructors’ in his global network; as well as one of Intelligent Horsemanship’s most experienced trainers.

Ian’s considerable expertise are pivotal to the formulation & delivery of training programmes for individual horses at his yard. In addition, Ian is a key instructor on many of IH training courses, most of which are based at Hartsop.

In recent years Ian has reduced his breeding programme to focus mainly on training & re-training work. He retains one stallion ‘Antics’, whose breeding activity supports their very own children’s’ charity set up by Ian and his wife Sandy.
