Courtney mohler: Head trainer

Courtney Mohler is an FEI dressage trainer who has earned her USDF Bronze, Silver, and half of her “Gold”  medals aboard her self-trained horse, Dutch Enough.  Her teaching and training style is tailored to each individual partnership with a plethora of classical exercises to help every rider achieve a harmonious relationship with their horse. Her training program focuses on achieving lightness and suppleness through a seat focused approach. She enjoys breaking down the training process into understandable pieces that allows a clear progression forward for any level of rider. She is a firm believer that “Dressage is for every horse.” Correct training can benefit any breed, type, or discipline of horse. Improved balance and self-carriage is immensely important for any partnership. Courtney has been riding since she was born and was lucky enough to grow up in a horse-loving family.  Courtney has had extensive opportunities to clinic and train with her own horses and client owned horses. Some of her favorites and most influential clinicians: Charles De Kunffy, Jessica Jo “JJ” Tate, Richard Malmgren, Jeremy Steinberg, Jim Kofford, and Robert Zandvoort. She enjoys continuing her education and plans to pursue hosting top clinicians who have a shared “horse-first”, kind, and empathetic approach in their training principles.

As a USDF Bronze, Silver, and Gold Medalist, I am passionate about developing horses and riders through thoughtful, classical dressage training. I earned my medals aboard a self-trained horse, an experience that shaped my belief in correct, patient horsemanship and the importance of allowing each horse the time it needs to mature both physically and mentally. I am also an L Graduate with Distinction and regularly judge local schooling shows, which further strengthens my eye for correct, effective training and horse development. I continue my own education by training and clinic-ing regularly with respected professionals Scott Hassler and Claudio Oliveira. My competitive accomplishments include multiple Champion and Reserve Champion titles at Region 9 Championships, two Adult Amateur Equitation Final wins, qualifying for the US Dressage Finals, and competing at multiple CDI events through the Small Tour levels. Above all, I am committed to helping each client pursue their individual goals and dreams while building confident, harmonious partnerships with their horses.
