Deirdre Sabo specializes in developing the horse and rider through a systematic approach called "periodization." This system focuses on developing the pair through a well-rounded approach of cross-training and classical dressage training. This allows the horse and rider to peak at the ideal time.
Deirdre Dressage is dedicated to promoting and supporting the classical style of dressage training. This training is supported by Deirdre's belief that the horse is brought along gradually. Deirdre believes in always using the natural way of training the horse and rider. It is very important that new horse owners and riders understand the basic principles of riding so that they and their horse may experience a healthy working relationship. She strives to improve the horse and rider so that they can enjoy their time together with strength and balance. She believes that dressage is the basic knowledge that all riders of all disciplines should learn to enhance their performance. A method should always be used when training the horse and rider and throughout her years of experience she has formulated a method that has been proven.
