Horsemanship Program

Roberta Dzimiela
Roberta Dzimiela has spent several years training horses and giving private and group horsemanship lessons. She has been influenced by horseman such as Tom Dorrance and Joe Wolter. When training full time, her personal interest was colt starting and working with “problem” horses. A horse named Holly inspired her to redefine which direction she wanted to go with horses. Her goal is to continue learning all she can from the greatest teachers; the horses themselves, and to share her experiences with as many people as she can.
