Philosophy: My own passion for dressage, began at the age of 14, and was nurtured by classical dressage masters Hans Moeller and Herman Friedlaender. These great men both enthusiastically accepted me as a student, along with my inexpensive Thoroughbred/Quarter Horse mare. Over the years they trained me in a classical approach, which emphasized a correct, independent and balanced seat, and effective use of the aids. Underlying their approach was their deep-rooted love for the horse, and appreciation for the harmonious relationship between horse and rider. It is my goal to impart this same approach to my students.

Mission Statement/Goals: To nurture in students a love, appreciation and respect of the horse. To foster in students a passion for dressage.
