As a professional Laura Beth strives to make her students as passionate about riding & showing and encourages children to start riding at a young age, like she did. She loves watching her students evolve into confident, effective riders and believes the discipline they learn through riding will serve them their entire lives, no matter what career path they eventually pursue.  She teaches students their own philosophy: Ride for yourself and the ribbons will follow. She helps her students understand that "every horse is different and you can't ride them all the same."  She emphasizes to her students how important it is to develop a feeling of being able to adjust your riding to each horse.

Laura Beth still ambitiously shows herself, with her own horses, Chanel & Leander.  Chanel will be showing in the pre-greens hunter while she continues to show Leander, her Grandprix horse.  Laura Beth enjoys taking her students to the away shows such as Saratoga, Hits, Monmouth, Old Salem, Devon and Capital Challenge, National Pony Finals, Marshal Sterling Finals & Zone II Finals, as well as supporting and showing at our local Long Island horse shows.

Christina Levi is an instructor teaching hunt seat equitation and basic horsemanship to beginner, intermediate and advanced students. In the equine community however, she has worn many hats..  Through the years she has assisted equine veterinarians, has managed several barns, has coached for the Equine Special Olympics and has been an active participant of equine rescue to name a few.  In addition she as been no stranger to the show ring, as a rider, trainer and sometimes announcer.  Her insight of horse and rider can only be gained with her twenty plus years of experience.

Ultimately her passion for horses and special way with people has helped her create a signature style of instruction.  After having the opportunity to train along the east coast Highwind Farm is where she calls home.  Attributing to this fact is that their philosophies on horsemanship and hers are much the same.
