LISA STEELE

Lisa has been a professional trainer and instructor for over 30 years.  She outlines her resume as follows:

 

"As a rider and trainer, I have experienced in a wide variety of disciplines including Dressage, Hunters, Jumpers, and Equitation. I have been extremely fortunate to study under some of the top trainers in the country. As a junior, I was a member of the United States Pony Club and was able to train with the very well known dressage rider, George Williams, as well as Kathy Connelly and Julie Ulrich.

 

As a young adult, my interest shifted over to the Hunter/Jumper discipline. I was particularly interested in the Hunt Seat Equitation divisions which incorporated so many of the dressage principles I'd grown up with. I found the classes technically oriented and the riders beautiful to watch. I was coached and trained by these wonderful, New England based trainers:

 

Frederick Hunt (Hunt Seat Equitation) of Charisma Farm.

Ian Silitch (Jumpers and Hunters) of IMS Stables.

Susan Tuckerman (Jumpers and CT) of Little Sunswick Farm.

Carl Catani (Hunters and Hunt Seat Equitation) of River Wind Farm.

Mitch Steege (Hunters and Jumpers) of Red Acre Farm.

 

As a professional, I feel it is important to keep my teaching fresh and up to date. In the last 5 years I have ridden in and audited clinics with Michael Dennehy, Geoff Teal, Scott Hoffstetter, Archie Cox and the legendary George Morris.  In the spring of 2004 I attended a 3 day Trainers Clinic in Chicago with George Morris.  In the fall of 2006 and 2007 I attended the 2 day USEF sponsored Trainers Symposiums in Wellington Florida which included internationally known trainers Karen Healy, Archie Cox, Danny Robertshaw, Candice King, Norman Delajoia and Missy Clark.

 

I have always enjoyed working with all levels of riders as well as training any level and age group of horses."
