Welcome to Hickstead, home to both Seven Oak Stables, and Blue Acre - two rival stables. Both offer opportunities for their clients to reach the highest level of excellence. Each stable differs from the other, so choose wisely and never forget, loyalty is everything... Meanwhile as the stables battle it out, there's trouble brewing at the university. Be careful, if you don't pick a side you may get caught in the cross-fire...

Intermediate and Advance dressage classes are covered by John Ryan and his wife, Marie Ryan. Both are power house equestrians in their own right, and between the two of them, have made several appearances in FEI shows, Grand Prix Titles, the Olympics, and other high profile Three Day Eventer tournaments both nationally and internationally.
Beginner Classes are covered by Griffin Keller. While Griffin is new to coaching and teaching, he comes from an excellent equestrian background. Griffin competed locally both with Hickstead University and individually in the local horse shows. Griffin's coaching style is fair and non-stressful. He aims to get students that are just beginning to feel comfortable with their horse. He does push his students, but not to where frustration happens - or past a students limits. Griffin covers beginner dressage exercises, and some intermediate.
John's professional grooms Ty Webber and Porter Griffin may also step in should any of the above coaches be unavailable for class.
class objectives
