As seen at this year’s Horse of the Year Show…
Emma Tytherleigh is coming to the British Liberty Show 2026 🐴🎭

Emma is a world-travelled equestrian performer whose journey began with a big dream and a deep love for animals. From discovering Trick Riding at 16, to performing across Europe in world-class productions like Cavalia and Cavalluna, to stepping into the HOYS arena she once sat in as a teenager — Emma’s story is pure inspiration.

But what makes Emma’s time at BLS so special isn’t just the spectacle — it’s the heart behind the training.

At BLS 2026, Emma’s demos will show:
🐴 How trust and partnership sit behind great performance
✨ That learning can be joyful, playful and effective
🎠 Why ponies (yes, Shetlands!) are capable of so much more than we think
🐶 How personality, patience and clarity create confident animal partners

Joined by her unforgettable team — Rocko, Rollo and Cowboy — Emma’s sessions are fun, educational and deeply uplifting. Perfect for families, horse-kids, professionals and anyone who believes horsemanship should make you smile and think.

Calling all horse-mad kids, brave teens, and the parents who support big dreams 🐴💫

We are SO excited to announce Thea Harkness of Thea Equestrian as a trainer at the British Liberty Show 2026 — and she’s bringing serious fun, inspiration, and boundary-pushing energy with her.

At just 14 years old, Thea is proving that anyone of any age can begin the journey into liberty and natural horsemanship. Her work shows that connection can start as play — and that learning with horses doesn’t have to be heavy or intimidating.

At BLS 2026, Thea’s demos will show that:
🌿 Liberty is for beginners (and kids!)
🐴 Connection comes before control
✨ Young riders absolutely belong in this space
🔥 And yes… bridleless fun is possible 🤯

Thea is inspiring the next generation to question tradition, lead with empathy, and believe that kindness and courage can go hand in hand.

If you’ve got a child who lives and breathes horses — or you believe the future of horsemanship should be lighter, kinder and more curious — this is one you won’t want to miss.

🔥✨ HUGE LINEUP ANNOUNCEMENT ✨🔥

This is a moment in horsemanship history. Never before seen at a U.K. event!

🤠 Douglas Owens — “The Liberty Cowboy” is coming to the
British Liberty Show 2026 🇬🇧🐴

Founder of The Douglas Way Horsemanship, Douglas is more than a liberty trainer. He’s a mentor, athlete, lifelong horseman and leader whose work has impacted people around the world.

Raised in the saddle, his horsemanship is forged from a lifetime with horses — ranch work, rodeo, liberty, bridleless, Roman riding, English and Western.
This isn’t theory.
It’s lived experience.
Miles. Sweat. Heart.

At BLS 2026, you’ll witness a trainer who blends grit with humility, liberty with intention, and leadership with deep empathy — challenging you to grow not just as a horseperson, but as a human.

Douglas’ sessions are known for being transformational.
Not just about what you do — but who you become.

✨ He joins an already explosive lineup alongside:
• Kat Pickering
• Mia Rodley
• Sarah Stone

🔥 LINEUP ANNOUNCEMENT 🔥

We’re excited to announce Sarah Stone as part of the British Liberty Show 2026 lineup 🐴

After two decades with her horse Barney, Sarah says it was only when she changed her training approach five years ago that everything truly changed — proof that it’s never too late to build a deeper connection.

She now joins Kat Pickering and Mia Rodley — with a huge international trainer from America being revealed tomorrow 👀🇺🇸

We’re incredibly proud to announce Mia Rodley as part of the British Liberty Show 2026 lineup 🐴

A world-renowned liberty trainer, Mia has wowed audiences across the globe with her breathtaking liberty displays of up to 10 horses at once — powerful moments of harmony, trust and freedom.

But behind the spectacle is something even more meaningful.

Mia’s work is rooted in understanding the horse as a social, emotional being. Through years of study, mentorship, and observing her own herd, she’s developed a deep insight into herd interaction, body language, energy and intention — the quiet conversations that shape true partnership.

At BLS 2026, Mia has some seriously exciting demonstrations planned to show you how, with the right understanding, you can make real leaps and bounds in your own connection and journey with your horse.

This is liberty with purpose.
And it’s incredible to witness live.
