William’s Father was Dick Micklem, a horse dealer and young horse specialist who used similar methods to Monty Roberts, learnt from Argentine polo players. Therefore William was brought up surrounded by horses and ponies William at the family home near Truro in Cornwall in the West of England.

After passing his British Horse Society Instructors Certificate in 1973 William went to work as chief instructor for Robert Hall in both Fulmer, England, and Pepperell, USA, which is when he began a lifetime equestrian association with Karen O’Connor, before coming to Ireland to work for Bord na gCapall in 1976. It was in Ireland at this stage that he began using his unique tool for improving performance, Habitual Hats. He also started training the Irish Junior and Young Rider Horse Trials Teams and designed Ireland’s renowned Golden Saddle Scheme for top young competition riders from Dressage, Show Jumping and Horse Trials.
