with Jacquelyn Dickey
Born in Chicago, Illinois, Jacquelyn was introduced to the world of horses at a very early age. Her father bred, raised and trained Morgan horses, while Jacquelyn was in the saddle showing at the tender age of two. Later in life, after marrying a Coast Guard Officer and starting her own family, her desire to show Hunters and Jumpers led her to Mystic Valley Hunt Club where she apprenticed for Sally Hinkle and Roberta Boylan and embarked on an instructional career. A Coast Guard transfer to Maryland led her to a job with Sharon Brandis Myers where Jacquelyn was introduced to the beauty of Dressage. It was Gina Miles in California that introduced Jacquelyn to the world of Three Day Eventing which would become her training and teaching passion.
Jacquelyn has combined the skills obtained from these proven trainers, and others, with the knowledge she has gained from personal experiences to create a program that is time-tested, yet fresh and innovative. Jacquelyn's training philosophy results from years of study with many great horsemen and women of all disciplines.
