So excited to announce that Shannon Peters of SPeters Dressage is coming back to Fox Hollow Farm to clinic this November 2nd and 3rd, 2024!
Shannon is an extremely talented and accomplished rider and coach and a mentor of Sarah’s!
Shannon is a U.S. Dressage Federation Bronze, Silver and Gold Medalist, and three-time National Championship competitor: on Luxor in 2007 when the two were crowned Reserve National Champions Intermediare I; on Flor de Selva in 2009 when they took home 4th place in the Intermediare division; and on Akiko Yamazaki’s Odyssey in 2011 after winning the Grand Prix Special at Del Mar and Burbank CDIs.
Shannon loves to bring young horses through the levels, one of the most successful being Weltino’s Magic, with whom she won Reserve National Champion at the 2008 Young Horse Championships.
College brought her to Boulder, Colorado. It was there that she developed her successful dressage training business which she moved to San Diego in 2002. Her own dressage education began with Nancy Baker and “S” Judge Debbie Riehl-Rodriguez. For the past 20 or so years, her mentors have been Karl Mikolka and Steffen Peters. Shannon is well known for her attention to the details of riding and competing.
Today, as a popular clinician, teacher, coach, and wife to Steffen, she is featured in dressage symposiums around the country, often focusing on a subject most important to her, the rider’s position.
“What we may not realize is the extent to which the rider’s position affects the ex*****on of movements by the horse. It’s about so much more than just pretty riding – it’s effective riding, and preparing our horses to perform their work correctly.”
Please contact Sarah directly if you’d like to be on the waitlist to ride with Shannon or if you’re interested in auditing (650)995-6969
