She is a fantastic teacher who makes every rider, no matter the ability (able bodied or special needs), feel like they can succeed. She even got me, an older former rider, back in the saddle again after feeling I’d never get to ride again. She understands the horses and what they can do and believes in them as much as she does the riders. Sarah is a wonderful teacher at all levels, and even better human being. She’s made my life better by being in it.” -Heather Hunt https://www.theconnectedequestrianllc.com/new-page daily 0.75 2020-12-11
