TESTIMONIALS

“Stacee Collier is the real deal.  A superb horsewoman with the knowledge, skills, desire, and mental and physical ability to train dressage horses in the right way for them to blossom into their best as athletes while maintaining a good mental attitude.  Her talent abounds! She’s not only a great trainer but a wonderful instructor who can bring the best out of her students and their horses, and she’s a steadfast mentor for her students.  She will guide them thru the competition experience so that each show is a positive learning experience.  She has taken two horses that I have bred,  from scratch, starting them under saddle thru successful Grand Prix.  Deja Vu, the GP mare that Stacee owns, is one of the top gelders horses in the country.  Missouri is lucky to have both Stacee and Deja.”

“I have had the pleasure of watching Stacee work with several horses over the years.  Her passion for dressage is obvious in her clear training methods.  She has a talent to feel how much she can ask of a horse and patience not to push beyond what the horse can do.”

Stacee Collier has been on and off my radar for many years.  She was a working student for me at Osierlea many years ago.  I gave her her basics, and then gave her a trained horse to ride through Intermediare Level, at which she was quite successful, especially as a “first timer”.  
So with a good start, she has been able to  proceed and progress on her own, and has even trained horses to Grand Prix essentially on her own.  And that is not just the typical version of “to Grand Prix” (mainly draw-reined head-set and tricks and clatter).  She has actually striven to improve the basics of the horses that she has taken to upper levels, which is much more important (and rare).  That is, sadly, quite rare these days, and certainly commendable that she has stuck by the principles I taught her in the face of the currently fashionable false and shallow version of dressage that is to be seen at every horse show.  
A rider who can actually improve a horse in mind and body, irrespective of “level”, and as they advance through the levels, is rare these days, but Stacee has not gone over to the ‘dark side’ – she still deals with the classical principles of dressage, and the nature and psyche of the horse.  More power to her.
