Mindy Price is a USDF Bronze and Silver medalist with over 30 years’ experience riding, training, showing, and teaching at all levels. Mindy is well-known for her ability to develop dressage horses, from inexperienced youngsters to award-winning upper level horses.
Lessons with Mindy are based on classical dressage, a discipline that builds the horse and rider’s athletic potential and develops the rider/horse partnership. Mindy takes an individual approach to each rider/horse pair, tailoring lesson content to address the unique needs of both human and horse.
Mindy’s students range in age from 7 to over 70. Some are serious and successful show competitors, and others just want to have fun developing a deep partnership with their horse.
