Dressage is both a path and destination of competitive horse training, with competitions held at all levels from amateur to the Olympics. No matter what level you are at, Jane will work with you on your personal goals.  The fundamental purpose of Dressage is to develop, through progressive training methods, a horse's natural athletic ability and willingness to perform, thereby maximizing its potential as a riding horse. At the peak of a dressage horse's development, it can smoothly respond to a skilled rider's minimal aids by performing the requested movement while remaining relaxed and appearing effortless.  Jane will work with you to solidify seat, leg and balance so you are in harmony with the horse.

“Classical riding is the art of riding with, rather than against the horse, in harmony. ”

Jane believes that correct classical riding only occurs when the rider has a good seat, correct and well-balanced body position, moves with the horse's motion, and gives and times the aids correctly.
