USDF Silver Medalist Janae Klingler has ridden with several Olympians including, Shannon Dueck and George Morris. She also has trained regularly with USDF Gold Medalist Janna Dyer for over 10 years. Janae has experience with horses and riders of all levels and abilities. She has started many horses from ground work up and is currently competing her horse at Prix St. George. In lessons, Janae focuses on developing correct basics in her students, while also emphasizing the development of feeling the horse and the connection with the horse. Lessons are geared towards the horse and rider becoming more supple, relaxed and correct in their movement. Janae believes that any horse and rider can learn the principles of dressage and use those principles in their own disciplines. She uses the principles of dressage to make the horse more soft, supple and athletic no matter the discipline or breed of horse. Janae has been successfully coaching Pony Club for the past 5 years. Each year her riders have competed and placed at both regional and championship rallies in dressage, show jumping, eventing and tetrathalon.
