Jill Giese
Raised with Alberta cowboy know-how, Jill's horsemanship skills were furthered with fifteen years of training in Europe. From Canadian Western Championships through jumping with legendary English hunts and on to dressage accolades her riding and competition experience is varied and exciting. Privileged to learn from some of the world's best trainers and riders (Carl Hester, Anky van Grunsven, Kyra Kyrklund, Michael Beining and Hannes Baumgart) she has developed a unique teaching program. Drawing from this eclectic background her approach in training, breeding and competing is very much designed with the individual's need in mind. Her ultimate goal is to enable students to reach their potential, ultimately on a Hanoverian bred at the farm!
