Teaching this special boy piaffe was so fun! It also shows that the horse doesn’t have to have the best movement or confirmation to achieve greatness…. It takes slow, systematic,and patient training! I trained him from a green broke 3yr old to a successful Grand Prix horse ❤️❤️

Congratulations to my wonderful student Roberta for earning her Silver Medal a few weeks ago at the HITS Dressage show🥳🥳. She has worked so hard towards this goal on her Friesian Jord, whom she purchased less than 2 years ago. Way to go Roberta I’m so proud of you 👏👏❤️

Saturday at HITS Dressage Show and USDF Championships was another beautiful day. We had some ups and some downs but everyone rode great and showed great sportsmanship through out it all! I’m so lucky to coach this amazing group of people
❤️
Roberta and Jord did 3rd 2 again today and scored 61.7% and another AA Blue ribbon. This has now made Roberta an official BRONZE MEDALIST🎉🎉🎉I’m just so happy for them 😍
Audrey and Dooley continued their improvement and were 2nd in 2nd 3 open…. Way to go Audrey 👏👏👏
Jess and Chevy rode 1st level test 3 open on a 66.8 % and 5th place in large class! Jess has done such an amazing job bringing this youngster along!!! They will ride their championship class tomorrow.
Kevin and Ryss had their most relaxed, mistake free test of the week end earning 66.9% and 4th pl. The future is so bright for this young horse and Kevin😍
Audrey and Quantum had many beautiful moments in their Open 2nd Level championship class; but a lovely but unfortunate flying change in her counter canter that kept her score a bit lower than we wanted. She still earned a 64.9% - one judge had her at 67%. They finished in
The top 1/3 of the class. On to third level for this talented pair 😊
Jackie and Metro had a few uncharacteristic mistakes in both counter canters and in her free walk which kept their score lower than we wanted in the AA 2 nd level championship class. The rest of the test showed really great quality and super scores. They finished 13 out of 28.
Kevin rode Royal in the 2nd level Open championships. Royal was very nervous and “ animated” in the warm up but ended up settling down nicely and put in a clean test thanks to great riding by Kevin! One judged really liked it and one judge didn’t…. Onto the freestyle Championships tomorrow 💪💪💪💪

Day 2 at HITS Dressage show and USDF Regional Dressage Championships in Saugerties, NY was a beautiful day. The horses all were so good! This is such a great group to coach ❤️

Oh well, that’s showing for you 😳. We were thrilled!
She and Dooley rode 2nd 3 for a 63.3%. They continue to get a little better each time.

Last day of showing at HITS Dressage show was rainy and soggy. The horses were super anyway !
Jackie and Metro had a really good 2nd 3 and were 1st in the class 😊
Jen and Rubin had a pretty good ride. A bit of trouble with some unnecessary flying changes kept their score down a bit lol They still did well on a 66.8% and 6th pl. I’m so please for Jen that her new boy is a rock star and that she will have an amazing future with him!
Kat and Genesis continued to improve each day at 3rd3 and today scored 64.6% and 6th pl. c. Seeing the improvement this team has made together makes my heart sing!
Audrey and Quantum still having some struggles with the left counter canter, which is costing some points but the trot work has improved so much! They still scored 66.6% 🎉 Their future is so bright!
Audrey and Dooley put in a better test . This level is hard for him but he is getting it and continues to try very hard for her! They scored 63.8.
Rusty was a little funny today so we scratched him.
Such a great week end we all had! So much improvement all around. Training these amazing animals takes time and patience and they each progress at their own pace. It’s such a rewarding journey to be part of that process with each of these pairs. It was a fabulous time with all Team JPK riders and our wonderful support people! I’m feeling blessed to be able to coach this great group ❤️❤️
Thank you to HITS for putting on a wonderful show! The show ground improvements are amazing. Steve and Debra Reinhardt do an incredible job in all that they do to run the show! Thank you to all the volunteers who kept the rings running smoothly😊

Show day 2 at HITS Dressage show was another successful day!!
Devon and Rusty put in another solid ride but not quite as brilliant as yesterday’s 79% lol. They were 3rd in the class on a 67%. But they ended up ECRC CHAMPIONS on a combined score of 73%.
Kat and Genesis rode 3rd 3 again…. Kat now has her BRONZE MEDAL 🎉🎉💪💪 I couldn’t be happier for Kat and so proud of how rideable Genesis has become at the shows!
Jen and Rubin did another fabulous Tr.3 and had 73.2% and 2 nd place. These 2 have become such a great team in such a short period of time 😍
Jackie and Metro rode 2nd 3 and earned a 67.5% and 2nd pl. So much improvement in this pair this year 😊
Jess and Chevy dis their 1st 3 and earned 66.9% and 6th place. Then they rode training 3 for a 67% and 6th place. They are now qualified both for regionals at both Tr and 1st level. Once this young man gets some showing mileage and maturity he will be just incredible. Jess handled his baby shenanigans with great skill and tact!
Audrey and Quantum had a few bobbles in their test along with many great moments too…. They still earned a respectable 62.6% Audrey and Dooley continue to make great progress at 2nd level ……Some super moments!
Kevin and Clyde were 2nd in their Free Style on a 66.1% with such fun music and choreography ! Kevin is doing a great job training this boy!

I had quick trip in and out of Apple Knoll Farm Sunday for the NEDA Summer show to help Jess Iorio and her young home bred horse Chauvency. They had a great Training 3 with one spook and the rest really solid. They were 2nd open on a 68.4% and they are now qualified for regionals. Great riding Jess! So fun to help you and it’s even more special that it’s on Rio’s baby 😍

I still miss this boy all the time ❤️❤️
My Friesian Bauke ; I earned my USDF Gold Medal on him back in 2015. I trained him from a 3 year old all the way to the top level of our sport . He was a pleasure to ride everyday 😍
He came into my life by way of my good friend Suzanne Walker 😘😘

Day 2 at HITS Dressage show was very successful! Every one is figuring out their new tests and new levels 😊
Zoe ( who had never done a dressage show before )and Maverick won AA training 3 on a 69.2 %
Devon and Rust won JR/YR training 3 on a 67.6% This pair is really becoming a great team!
Audrey and Quantum won their 2nd level test 3 on a 66.9%. Sooo much better than yesterday! Audrey and Dooley were 6th in 2nd 3 on a 60%. Dooley was not so happy in the new elevated ring and had a few too many distraction mistakes. The parts between the spooky moments were very good!
Maxine and Maverick were 5th in 1st 3. The walk and trot work was great. The canter still needs some work but is improving.
These girls all rode so well and are learning so much along the way. Every one was so supportive of each other. I’m incredibly proud to coach this great group of people 💕

First day at HITS Dressage Show, first show of the season, is in the books.
Devon and Rusty won the dressage seat equitation class on a 79.00%. Then they won Tr 3 on a 70.00%. Audrey showed both her horses second level. It was a big jump for them but they both did very well their first time at 2nd 3. Dooley was 5th on a 62.9 %. Quantum was 6th with a 62.8%. Lots of room for improvement but a great start for them both. Maxine and Maverick had some beautiful moments mixed with some very spooky moments in their first ever 1st 3. The new elevated ring was a bit overwhelming for him today but the work between the scared moments was great! Zoe just schooled today in preparation for her first ever dressage test tomorrow.
Great job girls! I’m very proud of all of you 😍
