FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I spend time assessing the rider and horse at the beginning of the lesson program and work toward the individual rider's goals and capabilities with the horse as an individual in mind.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been riding and teaching dressage for over 40 years. I have been fortunate to be able to work with top trainers over the years as well as raising my daughters in the sport. I have my USDF bronze and silver medals. My clients who choose to show are confident and successful. My older daughter won 2008 Young Rider Championship.
