Tanya Vik Dressage offers training for both horse and rider in a positive, fun, supportive, and professional environment.
"Training is more than just what happens in the arena with the horse. So much of the experience is about the relationships created at the barn not only between trainer and client, but also between clients. I am blessed with a wonderful group of people who not only are committed to their horses, strive to improve their riding skills, but also help to create a great barn atmosphere. I believe the training environment should be challenging enough to be rewarding, help create a wonderful partnership between horse and rider, and provide a great atmosphere so that clients can’t wait to come back to the barn." -Tanya

About Training:
TANYA VIK offers a wide range of dressage training programs tailored to the needs of each horse and rider, from novice to upper levels. A gifted teacher, she communicates not only the hows but the whys of dressage training.
Tanya has a special talent for explaining equestrian biomechanics: how a horse can be encouraged to move properly by a rider who is sitting correctly. Students are taught with a combined focus on developing a good seat and position, learning horse training skills, and increasing their theoretical knowledge so they can optimize their ability to ride effectively.
She aims to have each horse happy in his work, and to help riders achieve their goals whether this includes competition or not. All levels of dressage horses and riders are welcome. Programs range from a lesson once a week to the full training of horse and rider. Trailer-in lessons are also welcomed.
Tanya's barn is located in a secluded area within Riverside Equestrian Center. It has a quiet and peaceful feel, with the advantages of a larger facility at its doorstep. Clients enjoy the friendly atmosphere, and appreciate the airy, clean stalls with attached paddocks and the all-weather dressage arena with mirrors. In addition, Riverside offers two covered arenas with lighting and numerous outdoor arenas; extensive trail areas; dressage shows; and guest clinician programs.
