About KB Equestrian: Passionate about helping riders with their horses, and horses with their riders
It wasn’t until I was in my early 20s that I got involved with the sport of dressage.
As a young rider, many of the local dressage trainers did not seem very welcoming to me, and often I would reach out and never hear back.
This, unfortunately, halted my desire to perusing dressage, but then I met Patrick King of Patrick King Horsemanship and found my way into the sport.
I then became his apprentice and dedicated my career to dressage. Within the first two years of riding dressage, I earned my Bronze Medal with my beloved horse Winters.
Within the first four years, I earned my Silver Medal aboard my partner Cedric. We are currently still showing at the FEI level.
It is my mission to provide high-quality dressage instruction to all ages, abilities, and disciplines.
I am often helping many hunt seat riders fine-tune their skills with the use of dressage, and it is a very fun process!

I will never forget the silly pony I rode and the amazing trails we went up.
On one side would be a hundred or so foot drop and beautiful scenery and the other would be looking directly up an impossibly tall mountain.
When we reached the top it was the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen.

Do you have a horse-crazy child, who has always wanted to learn how to ride?
Riding camp at Cougar Mountain Stables is a fun, educational, and rewarding experience that will promote responsibility, build character, and create memories that will last a lifetime!
Our program is horsemanship unique, emphasizing the special relationship between children and horses.
Everyone spends time grooming and caring for the horses from the ground and learning safe ground habits. We ride primarily bareback, especially with beginner riders.
Children learn to ride much faster bareback, gain their balance more quickly, develop a closer relationship, and better communication with the horse.
Some say bareback riding can actually be safer without the trappings of tack to get tangled in and distracted by.
We do have a nice selection of Western/English saddles, and our more experienced riders will usually practice with saddles as well.
