1171.0. "Colorado Trainers?" by DENVER::STELZNER () Tue Jan 30 1990 16:09

    Hello,
       I have just moved with my quarter horse to Monument Colorado (near
    Colorado Springs, CO) and need a good trainer in the area. Can anyone
    out there recommend a good trainer for English? Please send me their
    name and phone number or address.
    
    Thanks a million.

    I have been taking Centerseat but am open to learn Saddleseat, eventing
    and hunting. The only stipulation I have is to find an instructor who
    takes riding serious enough to discuss technique and style but is also
    a pleasure rider and can explain this new area and all its equistrian
    facilities, trails, shows, etc to me so I can become acclimated.
    
    Thanks again,
    Eve
    
1171.3Isnt Monument nice!?!BSS::SACHSTue Jan 30 1990 19:3619
    HI!
    
    Where in Monument are you?  
    
    Susan Deeds is a hunter trainer out of Castle Rock (Winsome Farms)
    and she's execellant!  
    
    Karen Goodell is a hunter trainer out of Colorado Springs, but
    she does travel to Monument each week.  She's the best I've had
    yet and will really work to whatever your needs are......However,
    I thought she was only going to Pinewind.  Mary Jo, do you
    know if this is the only place in Monument she visits?
    
    I do have friends that ride saddleseat, but I dont know who their
    trainer is....From what I hear, there isnt much in the way of 
    saddleseat around the Springs.  Perhaps Denver might offer more.....

    Most of the Arabian trainers in the area could help out with
    Saddleseat.  Pam King at BARA is EXCELLENT.
    
    I can't remember all the places Karen goes in Monument.  I'll check.
    
    If you are working in Denver, there are lots of places in the Parker
    area to check out.  Like the Dennehys', Ben Wade, Canterbury for
    hunters.  Then there are loads of Arabian and/or Saddlebred folks for
    Saddleseat training.  Martin Cockriel is right on 83 south of Parker.
