My name is Judith and I've been teaching riding to children and adults for over 15 years. I am certified with the American Riding Instructors Association, and have had my certification since 2005! I believe in teaching my students everything about horses! I have school horses available at my facility, and also offer boarding, training and trailer in lessons. Fully insured and available to travel to your farm as well. My training leans toward the classical dressage style of riding. My riders start on the lunge line to develop a secure balanced seat. From there they are introduced to steering their horse and simple arena figures. When they are ready, an option of a semi-private or small group lesson is available. All riders learn how to connect and communicate with their horse using their seat, leg, and light rein aids. Training for your horse is also available, I offer training rides and lessons to my boarding clients. OTTBs welcome! I love helping ex racehorses transform into beautiful dressage horses! If you would like to come out and visit the barn, or set up a lesson, please give me a call and I can tell you more about my program.... See More
