Dan James
Goals
To help create well rounded horses that are able to go on to do any discipline or job to achieve that perfect equine relationship.
About Me
Double Dan Horsemanship was first founded in 2009 when Dan James and Dan Steers settled in North Arm Cove, New South Wales, Australia. Dan & Dan started performing at regular entertainment shows and horsemanship clinic bookings around the country. In 2012, Dan James started the North American branch of the DDH Program. James has been touring the country giving clinics, competing and developing a rider?s ability to establish strong partnerships with their horse.
Cowboy Boots or Tennis Shoes
Depends on the job! I prefer to wear tennis shoes when I’m roman riding because it’s better for the horse’s backs and way more stable for me.
If you could do any other discipline, what would it be?
Polo, it’s action packed!
What makes you most proud?
When the hard work and sacrifice we put into being horsemen is rewarded. Whether that is an award winning performance or simply performing a maneuver that you have worked so hard to achieve.
What is the best advice you have ever been given?
Simply, enjoy what you do.
