Like you, I want to improve the state of dressage in this country. I am a lifelong student of dressage and focus my teaching solely on developing riders' seats. Teaching dressage, especially to the adult amateur, requires attention to so many details that most trainers welcome the opportunity to have a non-competitive colleague improve the basic quality of riding for their students. I do not maintain my own barn of clients so I hope to be your colleague as a seat consultant.

My teacher at von Neindorff's once told me that the first 10 years of riding was spent perfecting the seat, the next ten is spent on schooled horses learning the movements under skilled supervision, and then you can become a horse trainer. Routine lunging for both novices and confirmed riders can develop better riders in less time, using advanced biomechanics coaching skills and optimal communication strategies. One of my strengths is the ability to break down the complex task of sitting well -- my goal is to be complementary to your training. I can enhance your program with my focused seat training.
