Wendy has been teaching for over three decades and has experience in all riding disciplines. She holds a BHSAI certificate from England and an Advanced Teaching License from the state of Massachusetts. She was a groom for the United States Three-Day Equestrian Team and is a graduate of the Morvan Park Equestrian Institute in Leesburg, Virginia, as well as the Talland School of Equitation in England, holding certificates in training, riding, and teaching. She has been a featured clinician at the Equine Affair in Springfield, Massachusetts, and is a columnist for the Horseman’s Yankee Pedlar.      

In 1990, Wendy was selected to receive the New England Dressage Association Scholarship to work with Dr. Deb Bennet, a nationally respected paleontologist and frequent columnist for Equus Magazine and the USDF Bulletin. Her goal was to understand how a horse's anatomy and conformation influence his way of going. She has developed a special talent for analyzing the horse’s posture, finding out where he is stiff and locked, and then developing exercises to relieve and release the stiffness.     

Wendy is a firm believer in improving a horse’s talent and performance through suppling exercises which free the shoulders and hind end. Her most significant successes have been with problem horses. She had elicited improved performance through her exercises and creative application of these techniques.

In addition to her formal training and education, Wendy has worked with the biggest names in “Natural Horsemanship” including Ray Hunt, Buck Brannaman, Bryan Neubert, Joe Walter, Greg Eliel, Jeff Griffith, and others. She incorporates the techniques she has learned into her training, communicating with the horses in a way they can understand, and helping them feel confident and secure in our environment. The result is a calm, content, willing, and supple horse — ready for any riding discipline.
