Welcome To Raindance Stables

Ana Moreira

Owner

I’m the owner and stable manager of Raindance Stables, and I founded both the Equine Learning and Theatre programs. I instruct in both disciplines, driven by a passion to connect people through horses. Our Equine Learning program has supported adults and children facing anxiety, depression, and ADHD. In Equine Theatre, we help young riders develop synchronized riding, strengthen their foundational skills, and unleash their creativity. Using natural horsemanship methods, we guide riders in forming genuine connections with their horses while encouraging personal growth through imaginative expression.

Caitlin Moorhouse

Riding School Manager

My role at Raindance Stables is to manage yard administration and horse training, and I’m also an equine theatre instructor. I’ve been fortunate to perform in all of Raindance’s major theatre productions. My passion for the performing arts began early, and I earned a distinction in drama during matric. I aim to teach riders how to tell meaningful stories with their horses. I also assist with Raindance’s Equine Learning program, which helps people understand themselves and others through guided interactions with horses. Using body language and natural horsemanship, we communicate with horses in ways they understand and respond to.

Bradley Chapman

Stable Manager

My name is Brad, and I’m the Assistant Stable Manager at Raindance. I hold CATSSETA and EQASA qualifications in Stable Management and as a Riding Instructor. While stable management is my primary role, I also coach students in riding and jumping, which I truly enjoy. I am a certified Equine Therapist and run my own business, Equi-Infinity. I’ve also completed modules in Practical Equine Psychology through Ekwos. I’m excited to keep learning and expanding my knowledge of horses. I believe in the power of education and look forward to what the future holds for us on this journey.

Ameli Groenewald

Instructor

Hi My name is Ameli, and I am so excited to be the newest instructor on the Raindance Team! I’m 19 years old and have been passionate about horses for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong background in Showjumping, Dressage, and Showing, and horses have truly become a way of life for me. There’s nothing that brings me more joy than helping others grow in confidence and discover their own love for the sport. Coaching allows me to share that passion and be part of someone’s journey – which is such a special experience. I’ll be around the stables with my dog Thomas, so please feel free to come say hi or have a chat anytime!
