Hunter/Jumper/Equitation Trainer Jesse has been riding and training horses for over 20 years. Her love for horses led her to earn degrees in Equine & Equestrian Management. She specializes in Thoroughbreds and problem horses, and helping their owners achieve their personal goals both at home and in the show ring.

Leslie Morris

She has participated in many USDF Instructors Workshops and is the recipient of the USDF Region 9 Teaching Excellence Award. She is happy to work with any level rider and horse.

Rebecca Smedley

Eventing and Dressage Trainer

Rebecca grew up showing hunter equitation in south Florida. She graduated from Wesleyan College in Macon, GA where she competed on both the Hunt Seat and Western equestrian teams. Over the years she has worked in a variety of disciplines eventually finding her niche in the Eventing and Dressage worlds. She coaches riders of all ages and levels, tailoring lessons to meet their individual needs. Her goal is to give clients the confidence to learn and grow in ways that will help them succeed both in and out of the saddle.

Nikhol Kelly

Dressage and Eventing Trainer

Nikhol started her equestrian career as a very young child in the hunter/jumper world but quickly grew fond of a program called the United States Pony Club. While improving on both horsemanship and riding in this program, she was exposed to many different English disciplines such as Show Jumping, Dressage, Quiz, Eventing, and Mounted Games, qualifying and attending championships for four years. Nikhol later joined a western drill team, the Gerry Lane Youth Riders, where she rode as rodeo entertainment for five years. More recently, she has grown very fond of Eventing as it incorporates her love for different disciplines. She is a member of the USEA and has competed in numerous recognized and local events in Eventing and Dressage. For several years, she has been giving lessons and training horses at local equestrian centers. She graduated from LSU in 2015 with a degree in Animal Science and hopes to continue to spread her passion for animals and horseback riding. Nikhol coaches riders of all ages and skill levels. She centers her instruction on horsemanship and achieving individual goals.
