Lessons at Showtime
 

Are you a seasoned competitor who needs tuning up, or are you just starting to pursue an interest in riding? No matter what your level of expertise or interest is, a Showtime lesson program can be tailored exclusively to meet your needs. Lessons are offered daily, and can be private or group. A string of gentle, experienced horses are on-site and ready to ‘show you the ropes’. Showtime’s instructors offer a wide range of learning opportunities and instructs the beginner to advanced student in Western, Hunt seat, Saddle Seat, Driving and Halter.

We have a new lesson instructor Sarah Dyer.  Here is a short bio about her.

I am 29 years old. A recent graduate from William Woods University, I have a Bachelors of Science degree in Equestrian Science. I waited to get my degree for a few years, and then worked part time as I started my degree, later moving to Fulton, MO to finish it up full time at that wonderful college. I specialized in equitation, horsemanship, pleasure driving, HUS and Western Pleasure in college.

As a kid, I grew up in the city, but with a country girl's heart. I was horse crazy from as far back as I can remember, but my situation didn't make it easy to do anything with horses besides take lessons. So lessons it was, and for many years I rode several times a week at a Hunter/Jumper barn in Colorado. When I moved to Missouri, I took lessons with Bev Cathcart at Hidden Valley Farm, riding there for 7 years. Finally I realized that I wanted to be a coach and lesson instructor, to give other city kids like me a chance to hang out with horses. So off I went, finding a great college in Missouri that is very well known for its achievements in the Equestrian field.

I have shown many different types of horses. I have several champion and reserve champion ribbons in Hunter/Jumper and Saddle-type Pleasure Driving, and top 3 placings in many, many circuit and local shows. I also am the Pinto Association National Congress Champion in Stock-type Pleasure Driving for Amateurs, and Reserve in Open Driving.

In school, my major emphasis was teaching other students- student teaching while in school, and teaching lessons at a small barn in KC for the last several years. I enjoy teaching and coaching, and since graduation I have done my fair share of coaching, as well as while interning during the summers. Teaching and Coaching are my thing!
