Riding With Style

 Hello horse lovers. I would like to introduce myself. I am Carmen Herrmann Stiles of the World famous  Herrmann’s Royal Lippizaner stallion show.  I have decided to open my private stable and to help people  learn the true art of training and riding horses using natural horsemanship and resistance-free  techniques.

 If you are looking in the Sarasota, Fl. area for a riding instructor for dressage, western pleasure, hunt  seat, or equitation lessons, look no further!!! We also offer full coaching, and winning show horses are  on the premises… What is most important for all of us trying to maintain our budgets, our prices cannot  be beat by anyone else!!!

 I have taken what has been passed down from my family of accomplished trainers and used for  hundreds of years… I have applied this classical and humane training style to all horses, and guess  what, THEY LOVE IT! Problem horses...NO PROBLEM!!! I currently have one (1) full training slot open for  summer, so please contact us soon for more information.

 I focus on a natural balanced seat – which can be applied to dressage, jumping, trail riding and western  disciplines. I teach in clinic format for rider equitation development. Biomechanics, and how the body  works in motion is a science of your movement in balance with the horse. The first step a rider needs to  accomplish is how to become a PERFECT partner, one that does not make a horse’s job physically  harder, or mentally stressful. We encompass a diversity of higher learning to inhibit a naturally balanced  ride.

 I follow a slightly modified version of natural horsemanship combined with resistance-free techniques.  These methods are based on horse psychology and sociology, so the horse and rider begin to  communicate more effectively. My goal is to build a trusting relationship between you and your horse. I  want students to have a working understanding of how horses learn and understand a logical system of  aids, how to reward and when to discipline.

 Riding is a wonderful sport. It teaches respect, kindness, and responsibility. It can help elevate  self-esteem, which helps to promote a solid work ethic.

 You are never too young or too old to enjoy the time spent with a horse. Please take the time to look  through our website and give us a call!

 I am also available for clinics and consultations.
