Noelle Henrich

Noelle has been riding since she was three and teaching since 2024. She has competed on a variety of horses across the eventing and jumper worlds — taking home ribbons on seasoned school horses and green self-made horses alike.

She has taught students of every age and every skill level, and her teaching starts from the horse as a teammate rather than a piece of equipment: riders learn to read what a horse is telling them from the ground before they are asked to read it from the saddle.

She teaches every lesson on the schedule herself. The program tops out at a size she can run alone, on purpose — riders are matched to horses by her, and level changes are her call.

Teaching Philosophy

A rider who is unable to tack up or handle their horse on the ground is not a real equestrian. The best riders are built on groundwork and an understanding of the animals they ride.

Progress is measured against a skill, never against another rider. Nobody is allowed to canter, jump or leave the lunge line until they are ready to do so safely.
