MEET THE TEAM

FOUNDER / HEAD TRAINER

Miranda developed a passion for horses before she could walk. She began taking lessons at the age of 6 and worked her way up from the short stirrup hunter division to the competitive junior jumper divisions. As an amateur she was fortunate enough to work for and train with some of the top Grand Prix riders in the sport, gaining experience working with green horses, ponies and upper-level hunters and jumpers. Over the past decade, Miranda has enjoyed attending the “A” shows across the country as well as the local Colorado circuit. She continues to learn and set her own goals as a professional in this competitive sport. She believes in creating a strong foundation that instills confidence in both horse and rider. Lessons concentrate not only on the mechanics of riding, but also have a strong focus on the rider’s position. As a trainer, she starts her horses slowly and correctly, focusing on the basics that foster both physical and mental growth in the animal. She is a knowledgeable and enthusiastic teacher who will help you meet your short and long term goals, whether that is in the show ring or at home.
