Horses as a life long investment - an accomplished dressage rider and skilled horsewomen.

Ariel’s passion for horses began at a young age on her family’s farm, where she was deeply involved in horse ownership, breeding, starting, and competition.

With the support of her parents and mentorship from renowned clinician Arthur Kottas, she expanded her education beyond her home province of Nova Scotia—training with world-class horsemen and women across both English and Western disciplines.

While developing a broad foundation, Ariel also pursued dressage at the FEI level, successfully competing two horses, WinniePuuh and Sedona, and proudly representing Canada at the Florida International Youth Championships and multiple North American Youth Championships.

Today, Ariel spends her winters in Florida and summers in Canada, continually immersing herself in the highest levels of sport and education. She believes every discipline offers valuable insight, adding depth to a well-cultivated skillset. Her connection-based approach emphasizes the emotional, mental, and physical well-being of both horse and rider, using strategic, adaptable training to build confidence, enhance abilities , and encourage effective, harmonious movement.
