TEACHING

"To teach is to learn twice. This philosophy summarizes
my interactions with my students: as I impart theories and
techniques to them, I too, learn from their reactions &
results. The USDF Certification process has influenced my
style of teaching both dressage theory and practice. While
most of my students are currently dressage riders, I have
always worked with riders from diverse disciplines of riding,
but have used the classical techniques as a basic framework
for approaching all riding. My work with juniors has been
particularly rewarding for me because of their direct approach
to learning and the ease with which they apply the methods
of classical dressage."

TRAINING
"A
desire to refine my communication with the horse has long
motivated my work to improve my riding. I seek to develop
an unobtrusive seat, while applying the aids with timing
and tact. The
horse, in turn, develops balance, suppleness, and self
carriage through three ways of education: lungeing, work
in hand and riding.
I interchange all of this to monitor the development of
the horse from the ground and to smooth out balance and
suppleness as the horse learns to carry greater weight
behind. Finally, but most importantly, I keep the horse’s
mental integrity foremost in all of my training. "
