AYSHA BANOS

ASSISTANT TRAINER

Aysha uses horsemanship and her skills from gentling mustangs to create a deep connection with horses. This connection goes deeper than solely riding, creating a cohesive enjoyment for both horse and rider on the journey to upper-level dressage. Aysha has over 7 years of experience training horses and 16 years of experience riding and has competed up to Prix St Geroge. With a firm belief that training starts from the ground up, Aysha has devoted her career to refining the nuanced relationship between rider and horse.

MARIE HERRON

ASSISTANT TRAINER

Marie uses her knowledge of biomechanics and personal training to inform how she approaches programming for each horse and rider.
