Showing

Participation is year round at both the local and AA-rated horse shows.  Anne Marie's extensive show experience is an asset to students just starting out in the show ring and to students who are seasoned competitors.  To make the show experience both pleasurable and successful, various services are offered including grooming, schooling, coaching and trailering when needed.  Anne Marie's coaching style allows all of her students to compete confidently and learn with every experience. 

"Riding a horse is not a gentle hobby, to be picked up and laid down like a game of solitaire. It is a grand passion. It seizes a person whole, and once it has done so, he will have to accept that his life will be radically changed."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
