Training
Josie offers comprehensive training for horses at all levels and across various disciplines, catering to a wide range of needs. Whether you are looking to start your horse under saddle without the traditional “breaking out” process, help a rescue horse rebuild trust, rehabilitate an injured horse, address problematic behaviors, assist an OTTB in transitioning to a new career, or simply provide a spring tune-up, Josie is equipped to help. With a strong foundation in dressage, she focuses on teaching balance, rhythm, and responsiveness to aids, ensuring that each horse is well-prepared for their specific goals—be it becoming a dressage star, an eventing champion, or a dependable trail partner.
Showing
Team RES actively participates in starter and recognized events, as well as dressage shows. Josie is passionate about developing young horses and coaching students across various skill levels. Her personal aspirations include advancing to the upper levels of both dressage and eventing. If you encounter Team RES at any shows, feel free to stop by and say hello!
