Sandy Gregoryand her holsteiner mare Calimba
"My
jumpers have benefited tremendously from the
dressage work that I have been doing with Kim.
Both of my horses were started and competed
in Germany then imported to the US, so were
trained with the German principles. The dressage
training has given me a better understanding
of how to access my horses' athletic abilities,
greater adjustability riding to the jumps, better
ridablility between the jumps, and has given
my horses much better strength and balance."

Training/Instruction
Students of all levels from beginner to advanced, amatuers and professionals
are offered a variety of training options based on the individual needs of the horse and/or riders. One thing is common...the program focuses on correct basics. Dedication, commitment to a program, smart work, consistency, and a focus and appreciation for the basics are the cornerstones of success! These principles apply to horses and riders of all levels and are the keys to a successful program regardless of whether you are starting out at Intro or mastering the FEI levels.
When it comes to
reschooling horses I take the time to correct the problem from its roots. No short cuts to get the horse and/or rider into the show ring! The horse's
health and well being as an individual are priority one. Horses with very solid training and students who know how to ride correctly
and handle a variety of training situations are the product of the program. Students learn to really ride
and train their horses in and out of the show ring not just pilot the horse
around around a test.
Lesson and training packages are available.
