Fortissimo Freestyles is a business that came to life in 2002, born out of my lifelong passion for horses and music. As a dressage rider and a classical musician, it just made sense to combine my two great loves.
Over the years I have designed freestyles for many Paralympic games as well as riders based overseas or travelling to compete overseas. I am currently proudly sponsoring Robbie McKinnon, Rochelle King-Andrews, Robyne Smith and Andrew Driffield.
Fortissimo Freestyles is recognised as Australia’s leading bespoke freestyle design service.
I offer every kind of equestrian freestyle including:
• Dressage
• Para Dressage
• Pas de Deux
• Musical Rides
• Demonstration Freestyles
• Hack Workouts
Each crafted to ensure your performance is truly unforgettable.
A freestyle is far more than a test; it is a performance that begins before you even enter the arena. I work closely with each rider to develop a theme that reflects the unique personality of their horse while captivating both judges and audience from start to finish. Through innovative choreography and expressive, carefully selected music, I ensure musical phrasing aligns seamlessly with your horse’s movements, with precise tempo matching for every pace. The result is a completely bespoke piece of art.
Each freestyle is built around a carefully developed theme that reflects your horse’s personality, colour, movement and breed, ensuring your test stands out in any class.
Precision Music. Intelligent Choreography. Competitive Edge.
Music is professionally mixed to create a cohesive, powerful score — no simple crossfades — with seamless transitions and clearly defined cues.
Choreography is fluid, balanced and thoughtfully mirror-imaged, making it easier to ride, easier to remember, and easier for judges to follow. From Novice to Grand Prix, every test is crafted to showcase the very best of your horse’s training while maintaining flow and rideability.
If you’re ready to elevate your performance and ride a freestyle that is both strategically competitive and artistically unforgettable, Fortissimo Freestyles will bring your vision to life.
Ready to Stand Out?
Your freestyle is your signature performance — a moment to leave a lasting impression.
Whether you’re preparing for a championship, aiming to improve your competitive edge, or simply wanting a freestyle that truly reflects you and your horse, Fortissimo Freestyles will deliver a routine that is strategic, artistic, and unmistakably yours.
Every horse has a story. Every rider has a vision.
Your freestyle should honour both.
Designing a freestyle is a collaborative and creative journey — one built on listening, understanding, and shaping something that truly reflects you and your horse. I take the time to get to know your partnership, your goals, and what makes your horse special, so that together we can craft a performance that feels authentic, confident, and uniquely yours.
