  • Courtney Clark

    Courtney started off her riding career at Fox Hill Farms in Pleasantville, New York. She eventually began working the barn, and progressed to teaching lessons by the time she finished high school.

    Her passion for horses took her to Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York, where she earned her BA in Biology. She was an active member of the equestrian team, under the guidance of coach Cindy Ford, for all four undergraduate years. She qualified and competed at IHSA Regional, Zone, and National Finals, both as an individual and as a team rider.

    After college, Courtney worked at the Riverdale Stables in the Bronx, where she fulfilled the roles of both trainer and assistant barn manager. During that time she also expanded her scientific knowledge, working under contract for Wildlife Conservation Society and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as a seasonal biologist and bird bander.

    Courtney teaches full time, attends shows and coaches the IEA teams.

    She enjoys spending as much time around horses as possible!

    Dina teaches private and group lessons to riders of all levels, and is a coach of the IEA teams.

  • Siobhan McBride

    I have been riding since nine years old and always knew I wanted to pursue a career with horses. Started teaching and running camps at 17 years old and have been doing it ever since as well as barn management. Worked in Wellington up until covid when I came back north and started equine sales. I found my forever horse at that point and decided I would buy her out instead of rehoming her. I enjoy hunter pacing with my mare Saoirse and have hopes to practice coaching with her and my dog, Dude.
