Cara is a rural surveyor by trade but her true love has always been horses. Through Wilder Ways, she is lucky enough to live her joy and hopefully helps others to live theirs. She started riding at the age of 6 and she's been hooked ever since. She loves learning about her horse and their partnership and has been really fortunate to have had some great learning experiences over the years; starting off with Pearl Cranna, her riding instructor, lifelong friend, and mentor to more recently training with the natural horse-master, Peter Campbell in Canada.

Nikki has lived in the West of Scotland for over 20 years and worked as a freelance botanist, traveling and walking in many of the most remote and beautiful parts of the country. Riding had always been a big part of her life and so she walked with potential 'horse adventures' in her mind. She was lucky enough to be able to come back to riding about 10 years ago and to use this knowledge of Scotland's hidden landscapes alongside her horse obsession. She has also been able to develop her own abilities through learning some of the techniques of natural horsemanship.
