After studying equine sciences in college, Ariel began her career in 2004 teaching lessons and riding professionally. With a lifetime of experience loving and appreciating horses as an amateur rider, she was eager to grow professionally in every aspect of the sport. Learning from numerous clinicians and mentors along the way, she developed a unique perspective of teaching and training her riders and their horses, based on studying the fundamentals of equine behavior. Her program centers around understanding and communicating with the horse as a knowledgeable partner, training with patience and above all, kindness. From proper ground work, to foundational position in the saddle, no detail is missed. The respect for the animal and the way they learn about the world is always the foremost priority. Equestrianism at its core means understanding both how horses feel, and how their bodies work. Her mission is to create well rounded equestrians who will confidently support the welfare of the horse, their proper care, and protect the future of the sport with integrity.
