Testamonials

"Both of my parents were professionals in the hunter/jumper industry for decades and my grandfather the Devon Horse Show official veterinarian for many many years. As a result, I know this industry well and have very high standards when it comes to the care and training of my horses. I have known Sarah Watson for many years now. Over those years she has remained exactly the same: honest and genuine; incredibly gentle with all the horses she trains; understands that each horse is a unique individual that needs its own specific program that best suits that horse's needs; not only a beautiful rider, but softly effective; and most of all has an unparalleled love for her horses and riders. There are very few trainers in this county I would ever leave my horses with or allow him/her to ride and Sarah is one if them! I trust her implicitly and very highly recommend her!"

Testamonials

"Sarah is a dedicated trainer who takes excellent care of both her horses and clients. A true coach, her lessons build a foundation of riding skills that allow her clients to be successful in both the hunter and jumper rings. As an amateur returning to the sport postpartum, Sarah helped me overcome a lot of fear around jumping and enabled me to return successfully to the show ring, finishing third in our division statewide. More than that, she gave me the mental and physical tools to realize my own potential and continue to grow in a sport that I love. Sarah embodies horsemanship, sets her clients up for success, and does it all with a wonderful sense of humor that always makes riding fun".

"I have known Sarah for about 13 years now. I trained under her as a junior and she helped me accomplish so much in and out of the riding world. She taught me many basics of being a good rider, good horseman, and caring person. Sarah was a great influence on not only my riding abilities but a great role model on my personal life. She is genuine and kind as well as knowledgable about her job. I am grateful for the years I got to ride with Sarah and for everything she taught me."

"Getting the opportunity to work and ride with Sarah has been an absolute blessing. She is not only a beautiful and soft rider, but is a wonderful and knowledgeable teacher for students of all levels. I've watched her teach lessons to kids just learning to trot, all the way up to students who are competing at the rated shows and she caters to the needs of each rider individually. She truly cares about every horse in her program, and provides amazing care and training programs to keep them in shape and prepared for whatever is ahead of them. I trust Sarah implicitly, she is one of the most honest and genuine people that I've been lucky enough to encounter in the horse industry. In the short time I was lucky enough to be taking lessons with Sarah, my riding abilities increased exponentially. Sarah is a role model for her students, and I would highly recommend her for anyone searching for a riding program!!!"
