With 40 years riding experience and 25 years as a professional, Sarah Pinney has truly made her passion for horses a lifetime commitment. Classically educated in Portugal, Great Britain and the States, she emphasizes a classical dressage foundation for both horse and rider. She believes that with such a foundation, you and your horse can pursue any equestrian discipline. Her training abilities and techniques have been shaped by such world-renowned trainers as Joao Olivieria, Jean-Claude Racinet, and Maestre Luis Valenca.

Her forte is starting young horses to saddle and giving them a solid foundation. She welcomes horses of any breed to train, but has specialized in training the Andalusian and Lusitano horse since 1989.
