performing horses and ponies

Jema Leopold has been training horses and ponies for circus, gala and pantomimes since 2003. She has an amazing connection with her equine friends who love to please for the reward of a kind word or a little treat.

Jema and her four legged team will wow the crowds at Scorton Steam in the morning and afternoon of each day. Her routine called Big and Little will be a firm favourite. This double act is performed by Henery the horse (15.2hh for those who work in horse heights!), and tiny Oberon the miniature Shetland, who at just 32 inches is the smallest comedy pony act in the country. Despite the difference in size they are firm buddies and love to show off.

Bella, Popcorn, Patches, Oliver and Harley and a little dog called Benji complete the team and between them they will bow, rear, lie down, sit, march and dance……all because Jema asks them to.

Come and choose your ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ equine favourite and cheer them on!
