In support of the Ammy Army!

Hello,

I'm Stacie a dressage trainer in the Sacramento area. Just joining on here from one of my students, and Ammy Army member, Stacy Mortazavi.

What a fabulous forum! I love the general orders and the mission in general. Very, very cool idea.

I hope you don't mind my joining in- sharing my support of your mission.

I train in dressage, but work with a variety of breeds, notably Spanish horses, but the arabs have a special place in my heart. For years I rode on the open h/j circuit, but I've also done limited distance endurance, cow work, and ridden a variety of styles at different times in my life. Currently, I have a straight Egyptian gelding (who I've done a little bit of EVERYTHING on) by Simeon Shai, and last year bought a 3/4 arab mare as a schoolmaster in our barn.

I'm really excited for my students who have arabs and will be showing or competing in endurance this coming season. They've put in a ton of effort and deserve every opportunity to enjoy what they've accomplished.

I look forward to meeting some of the other members of the forum.

Stacie made it! I'm glad you're here. Welcome to the group.

I've been riding with Stacie off and on for 2 or 3 years now (how long has it been?). She's really great and has helped me and my horses, both from the ground and the saddle.

Stacie has well rounded training techniques and background. She's very humble out that I think. She even did some training with Parelli. Maybe she'll tell us about that sometime.

Hi Stacie and welcome aboard!!...Glad to have another expert here and especially dressage! Too bad you live so far away! Hope you find this forum a great place to network and share your experiences and knowledge...I know I would be appreciative!

Cheers!

Welcome Stacie! Glad to have another from the Nor Cal area. We would love to see pictures of you Simeon Shai gelding!

Thanks Kaitlyn. He's the one on my profile pic to the left. He's very similar in color and markings to his daddy. Just a bit shorter and stockier I think.

Mermaid Akhnaten is his registered name. Named for an Egyptian pharoah. The "Mermaid" part is surely from the breeder.

But, he's known around the barn as Augie, Augie Doggie...or Wuzz Up D' Auuugggeee.
