Testimonials

"Laurie has helped me more than I could ever adequately express. I came to Laurie as a lower level rider with a very challenging project horse. While many would give up then and there, Laurie said that she would help me if I was willing to work hard. And we did. She stuck with me through the tough times and celebrated with me over successes. Her training system is clear and has a strong foundation even when adapted to each horse, so it doesn't take any time at all to see the improvements. Under her guidance, I have taken my below training level horse to fourth level. Without her determination, honesty, and friendship I would still be trying to get a solid working trot."

"I wish I would have started riding with Laurie years ago! She has simplified and clarified so many aspects of dressage riding for me. My horse is happy in his work and we are progressing up the levels correctly. Laurie is an incredibly gifted teacher - it's an extra bonus that she has the eyes of a judge!"

"I think Laurie is one of the best trainers there is anywhere, period!  She has amassed an incredible base of practical knowledge that allows her to come up with many creative ways to move both her students and horses forward.  She is a unique combination of a professional who can both be a trainer and be a successful competitive rider."
