Dressage Training in New York

Reimagine Horsemanship offers lessons and training throughout the Hudson Valley. We specialize in equine rehabilitation and relationship-based horsemanship. We combine liberty work, classical dressage, ranch work, and natural horsemanship to reset the minds and bodies of troubled horses and provide them with a healthy, versatile education.

We utilize classical schooling principles to strengthen and develop healthy riding horses. We are noncompetitive. We practice dressage for the fitness and therapeutic value that it offers horses when executed correctly over time.

Traning/lesson board is available at our home facility in Poughquag, NY. We offer a holistic environment designed to help horses heal and learn. Along with regularly scheduled sessions, their education is immersed into their lifestyle and daily handling. We collaborate closely with vets, farriers, nutritionists, and physiotherapists to provide horses with whatever they need to establish and maintain their physical, psychological, and emotional well-being.

Horsemanship and liberty lessons/audits are available at our home farm. Our relationship-based horsemanship educational program teaches participants about horse care, herd dynamics, body language, horse whispering, animal communication, biomechanics, and much more. Students can participate in an array of activities with horses including round pen work, academic line work, trick training, obstacle challenges, jumping, trail, and classical dressage both in-hand and under saddle.

All disciplines and levels are welcome. Please visit our website for more information.... See More

A seasoned and successful competitor, and dedicated student of the "art" of dressage, Vanessa offers her students a wealth of accumulated knowledge having spent many years learning from several top professionals. Clients note that their horses are soon going with more volume and expression in their gaits, and are happy in their work. The emphasis is on the systematic gymnastic development of the horse where each stage in development is based on the foundation of previous work. Attention is paid to the quality of balance and suppleness, the horses's back is soft and the rein contact is light. The student develops an independent seat and makes steady progress.
