A few questions I hear often. If yours isn’t here, the Contact page is always open.
Do I need to already be experienced to work with you?
Not at all. I welcome anyone who is curious, hardworking, and eager to improve, regardless of where they’re starting from.
What disciplines do you teach?
My background spans three-day eventing, show jumping, and dressage, all built on a foundation of classical flatwork. That foundation is what I emphasize regardless of which discipline a horse and rider are ultimately headed toward.
What if my horse (or I) is struggling with something specific?
That’s exactly what the Program Intake form is for. It walks through your current schedule, goals, and any specific struggles up front, so I can build a plan around your actual situation rather than guessing.
Do you focus more on competition or on the fundamentals?
Fundamentals first, always. A rider or horse with a genuinely solid foundation can go on to compete successfully if that’s the goal — but competition results without that foundation tend to be fragile. I’d rather build something that lasts.
How do we get started?
Fill out the Program Intake form with some details about you and your horse, or reach out through the Contact page if you’d like to talk it through first. Either way, that’s the first step.
