Caitlin Ryan-began riding when she was eight years old. Riding became an escape from every day life and she soon discovered that there wasn't anything she couldn't do while she was with the horses. As a youngster being around horses gave her a tremendous amount of confidence and happiness. Horses became her direction in life and even more so, they became her true passion.
For Caitlin it is all about the horse, not just the competitions, or what she can do next, or how high she can jump, or how many nice horses she can ride .It is about any horse, old or young, talented or just destined for the trails. Horses are all equal to her, she sees more than just a breed or how big or small it is, she sees a spirit that no other animal or human has, and it is beautiful. Equestrian is not merely just a sport, for Caitlin it is a way of life.
Caitlin is a young up and coming trainer in the Northern Virginia area. She has ridden successfully to Prix St. Georges dressage and has trained higher. She trained under John Winnett and other successful dressage trainers. She currently competes in Jumpers and trains with Joe Fargis, Alex Castillo and Manuel Torres. Caitlin feels it is extremely important to always continue to further her own education not only for herself but her students and horses.
