Heidi has been in the US since 2004, training in the north of Kansas City. She is a German FN certified instructor (Trainer C) and holds the "Deutsche Reitabzeichen" as well as USDF Bronze Medal.
Not only has Heidi won regional championships and national top ten's herself but also taken students to Midwest and Regional Championships, produced USDF Bronze Medalists and KCDS Champions.

While living in Germany Heidi trained with Gerd Velte (Spanish Riding School/Bereiter of Harry Boldt and Joseph Neckerman) and Markus Erkens (trainer stallion Leonberg to GP before he sold to the USA), both acomplished Grand Prix riders and Pferdewirtschaftsmeister FN.
Currently Heidi is training with Betsy Steiner and Dr. Christian Schacht on a regular basis and clinics with Jan Ebeling, Maryal Barnett and Juan Matute.

Heidi is strongly rooted in the German systematic approach to Dressage with the emphasis on the training scale, always keeping the welfare of the horse as a main focus. Allthough driven to performance she believes riding should be fun for the rider and the horses.

Heidi has several safe and well trained lesson horses available from beginner level to advanced. At the Wild Rose Equine Center location colt starting/backing is offered by assistant Dez Mallonee who has many years of experience to produce safe and willing riding horses.
