About Jacquelyne & The Team

A lifelong partnership with the horse — refined into an art.

Jacquelyne Toher, Head Trainer

The hand that shapes the program.

Jacquelyne was born into the equestrian life. She grew up on her family's farm in Carlisle, Massachusetts, learning natural horsemanship from her parents and serving four consecutive years as 4-H President. She was selected for the Extreme Mustang Makeover, gentling and competing a wild mustang in 100 days — featured on Ride TV.

From 2009 through 2015 she apprenticed with Jane Karol of Bearspot Farm, deepening her command of classical dressage. She has trained with Hope Cooper, Vincent Flores, Sue Downer, Greg Best, Beverly Lynch, Vitor Silva, Volker Broman, Sandra Beaulieu, and continues her own instruction with Jerry Schrunik.

"A horse deemed dangerous can become happy and successful — with empathy, time, and a near-encyclopedic understanding of behavior."

The Team

A small, deeply experienced team — devoted to the horse, the rider, and the bond between them.
