Training & Lessons
In residence at Broad Meadow Farm is Pat Eidel Schmoll. With 40 years of professional experience, the last 20 in Wellington FL, she has recently co-located her practice to Ocala. Pat designs a customized program for every horse and rider, any breed welcome. Pat believes that dressage training can increase strength, balance and flexibility in every horse. The goals of the rider are taken into account, as well as the needs of the horse, in order to develop a suitable program. This approach to the work is also applied to horses in the hunter and jumper disciplines as well.
Ship-in horses are welcome, and we have a limited number of schooled horses who are available for lessons and showing.
