Apex Farm - About Stacy Sutton

Stacy Sutton is an active member of the United States Equestrian Federation, United Stated Dressage Federation, California Dressage Society and holds current Red Cross CPR and First Aid cards. She has been successfully teaching and training both horses and riders for 20 years, as well as competing for many years in the disciplines of Dressage and Eventing. Stacy now focuses primarily on the art of Dressage.

Drawing from her years of experience with quality trainers, fellow instructors, and human and equine physical therapists, Stacy Sutton has a unique ability to address each horse and rider's individual conformation and body type. These skills provide students with personalized tools to develop a classical and effective seat, thus enhancing the communication between each horse and rider.

Stacy provides an informative and systematic teaching style that breaks down in detail the mechanics of the rider's position in the saddle, and she can spot seemingly minor errors that can ultimately make a tremendous difference in the responsiveness of the horse.

Stacy provides safe, hands-on lunge lessons so that each rider may concentrate on their body positioning in the saddle and not have to "worry about the horse". Many riders can use this experience to improve themselves and use these fundamentals to progress faster with the training of their horse. She uses a variety of lunging skills including both German and French techniques that can only be acquired by years of experience. This includes 4 years as a competitive Vaulting lunger for the Evergreen Vaulting team.

Educational, on-ground lunge lessons can also be taught to the horse owner, enabling them with skills to not only "exercise" the horse, but to develop the owners "eye" and further the horse's education into becoming a well balanced and obedient partner.

Although Stacy primarily instructs Dressage riders, she also offers lessons and clinics to Eventing, Hunter and Jumper, Western, and English Pleasure enthusiasts, as what she teaches applies to all forms of correct riding and equitation.

Stacy Sutton is available by appointment for Organized Riding Clinics, Coaching Clients at Horse Shows, Riding Clients Horses at Horse Shows, Private Lunge Lessons and Horse and Rider Evaluations.
