Erin's love for horses started at a very young age, and as soon as she learned about horses that could dance, her passion for dressage began. Her first trainers instilled in her a classical dressage approach, which helped her bring her first horse, King Julian, from Intro all the way to competing Fourth level and schooling Prix St. George.
As soon as she aged out of the Young Rider divisions, Erin began training and competing as a professional. She enjoys working with riders and owners of all levels to help them reach their goals whether that is growing their relationship with their horse, pleasure riding, or getting into the showring. Erin loves developing horses to move up the levels. She believes that while classical dressage is the best foundation for every horse, learning this art is a lifelong pursuit and having good trainers and mentors is crucial.
Erin recently relocated from Wellington, Florida, and is excited to bring her experience to the LSH team!
