Renee Peters has over 20 years of experience, spanning the breadth of riding styles; beginning with Hunter-Jumpers and transitioning to Dressage. Renee has been riding from the time she could barely walk. After her success with Joy, her first horse, she always knew she would be a horse trainer.  Renee has a love for the training process, she has the patience to let the horse and rider develop their skills at their own pace, building a foundation for their riding journey. She discovers what works for each individual horse’s personality; their progress is what motivates her and is the hallmark of her teaching style. Renee has a passion for helping horse and rider develop a connection, whether they are interested in competing or simply want to create a better partnership.

Renee began her career under the tutelage of great trainers such as Courtney King Dye, Silke Rembacz, Janet Foy and Werner van de Brande.  Rehabilitating the horses with baggage has given Renee exceptional insight into horse behavior. Both have provided Renee with the expertise that she relies on as she engages with a variety of horses and riders on a daily basis. She has worked with a vast collection of breeds and her students come from all backgrounds and levels of experience, from the walk-trot novice to top-level competitors, most of whom are adult amateurs. Renee is particularly skilled in working with horse which have had a poor start. With her strong background and natural gift, she is able to meet them, where they are, address their issues, establish goals, and with patience set them up for success.
