lasting progress.
Led by international Grand Prix rider Aaron Janicki, our training program develops dressage horses at every stage of their careers. Aaron has trained and competed eight horses to Grand Prix, bringing experience from young horse classes through the highest levels of the sport.
Our work follows the classical training scale, with attention to rhythm, relaxation, contact, and the progressive development of strength and collection. We adapt the work to the individual horse, building understanding and confidence as the demands increase.

Training with
a clear direction.
Alongside our own breeding and sport horses, we accept select client horses for training and sales. We begin with a conversation about the horse’s background, current work, temperament, and your goals, so we can discuss whether our program is the right fit.
For horses offered for sale, training and presentation go hand in hand. We help develop the horse’s work and communicate its experience and qualities to prospective buyers, with the aim of finding a suitable partnership.
We have helped hundreds of amateurs, young riders, and professionals find riding partners, with horses going on to success through Grand Prix.
