From her first pony ride at a Maine county fair in 1977, Stephany’s passion for horses ignited. After Hunter lessons, Pony Club, and her first horse, she discovered Dressage and became a working student for Michael Poulin. Following a successful management career and grooming for Jane Savoie, she earned her National Trainer Certificate in Germany and returned with her horse, Rocky. Since 2002, Stephany has earned her Bronze and Silver USDF Medals, is working toward her Gold, and competes extensively. One of nine accredited Ride With Your Mind coaches in the US, she trains horses to FEI levels and studies natural horsemanship. Based at Rough Diamond Ranch in Okeechobee, Florida, she teaches and competes, traveling to teach biomechanics clinics. A lifelong learner, she’s currently competing her horse Dante at Third Level, aiming for FEI.
