Ride with Classically Trained Dressage Clinician

Carol's classical dressage training crosses the boundaries among the
German, Spanish, and French systems:

German system while growing up in Great Britain and Germany
French Classical approach during her years with Christopher Bartle (Saumur)
In 2002 and 2003 at the Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Equestre in Spain

To round out her classical training she also lessoned from riders of
the Portuguese School of Equestrian Art and the Spanish Riding School
while clinicing with Karl Milkolka, Rockivanski, & Arthur Kottas. She
regularly travels to Spain and Portugal to continue training with
mentor Juan Matute.

Carol competed in Dressage at the FEI level in Europe for several
years often representing the USET at shows. Before concentrating on
Dressage, she had been selected as reserve rider for the US Eventing
team for the Seoul Olympics in 1988 and long listed for the Barcelona
Olympics.

Carol holds her Bereiter license from Germany and instructor's license
from Spain. Carol was the head trainer for the Bavarian Warmblood
Association's 100-day test in Britain that was judged by German
evaluators who then arranged for her to oversee the trainers for the
German 100 day test. After the Warmblood evaluations, she was invited
to participate in the Friesian and Haflinger tests.

Carol offers the rare combination of not only being able to ride at
the highest levels, but to transfer her knowledge and 'feel' to her
students.

Carol helps riders develop the relationship riders wish they could
have with their horse…a riding relationship where the horse feels what
the rider wants - and then responds.
