Hi! If your desire is just to be safe on the trail, or show in dressage and go up the levels, my goal is to help you have confidence and harmony with your horse. I have attained the USDF Bronze Medal rider award, and am targeting getting my silver in 2019. My accomplishments in the show ring have been made on a horse I have brought along myself, not an already trained horse that was purchased to attain scores, and the journey has been part of my instruction; a clarity about dressage gleaned from the experience of learning the levels, and from training with some of the best in Southern California as well as the nation. I can help you attain better riding skills, dressage instruction, and/or aid you to have confidence on the trail. I am also available to train your horse(s) during the week, if you are busy with a career and need them to keep fit. Professional and client references are available!

Kind, and compassionate, I put the horse's interests first. I have a history as a certified equine sports massage therapist and a natural hoof trimmer. My background in horses extends 30+ years and includes hunter/jumper, eventing, and exercising horses at the track, and for clients and trainers. I have focused on dressage for the last 20 years. I can work with problem horses and I specialize in OTTBs. I can come to your barn or home, or I am based at a relaxed, comfortable facility with a generous arena and trails.

Jackie teaches horses and their riders the correct foundation so they can move up the levels and have fun doing it.

Jackie is extremely detail oriented; she works diligently with her human and equine students to create an educated team that can train and compete in joy and harmony. It is Jackie’s goal to create horses who are straight, though, responsive and happy in their work and to make sure her riders improve daily. All of Jackie’s horses and students are comfortable in the arena and on the trails, all enjoy turnouts as well as time in their stalls. In addition to learning how to ride in a beautiful and sympathetic way, Jackie’s students learn first class horse care. Jackie has spent her life training horses; she is the rider to whom other trainers send their horses. From her childhood in the Thousand Oaks area, through her college days at Meredith Manor (where she earned a Level II teaching certificate and completed both the Advanced Farrier Sciences Program and the Riding Master VI Program), through her time training young horses in Holland, and continuing through her work over the past 7 years with Christine Traurig, Jackie is always learning and always teaching.
