Testimonials

We are blessed in Arcadia to have Anne-Katrin and her riding school in our neighbourhood. I am a “mature” lady rider. [Actually, I am an “old” lady now. I have owned many horses over the years. Some fairly green, others with more dressage training. After two losses to Cushings, as well as my advanced age, I decided horse ownership was no longer practical.

Then I saw Anne-Katrin’s sign. With her beautiful horses and her excellent teaching and training skills I have progressed through areas of expertise that I never envisioned for myself.

And any achievement is thanks to Anne-Katrin AND her miracle Sterntaler. It is fabulous to ride a horse so well trained, so competent, a horse she knows so well so she sees clearly what the rider is not doing correctly. All her horses are beautifully trained and cover the full range of rider preferences in terms of temperament and skill levels.

I am having so much fun. I thoroughly recommend classical dressage training with Anne-Katrin and her wonderful team of beautiful German Riding Ponies for ALL mature lady riders!” Louise Sonnino

“My teenage daughter and I have been learning Dressage with Anne-Katrin for past two years and we have gone from eager beginners to intermediate riders. We started out doing Private Lessons to now Semi Private. My daughter has built inner confidence in her abilities and I have proven as an older beginner that you are never too old to learn. With every lesson we are always learning new techniques and improving our riding skills and style. Anne-Katrin’s enthusiastic and caring personality makes each lesson entertaining as well as respectful of each of our riding capabilities. Her sound knowledge, teaching style and care for her horses keeps us coming back for more.”
