Hannah Russell brings over 20 years of experience riding and showing in the hunters, jumpers, and equitation on the A/AA circuit. She has trained under top dressage instructors, started green horses in their showing careers, and has recently expanded her skills into cross country riding with drag hunting and team chasing in England. Hannah specializes in working with adult amateurs, particularly those returning to riding for enjoyment, as well as adults and juniors focused on competing.

Hannah recognized a gap in the industry: many riders wanted to progress beyond lessons but weren’t quite ready to own a horse. This realization inspired her to develop a boutique leasing program that provides guidance, flexibility, and the opportunity for riders to grow at their own pace. Our goal is to support riders at every stage of their journey, whether building confidence, advancing skills, or competing, in a welcoming and supportive environment

We always maintain 1–2 additional assistant instructors to offer lesson opportunities beyond our leasers, welcoming beginners, kids, and riders who aren’t yet ready to lease. Currently, that includes Jessica Cebulla, a lifelong horse enthusiast with a B.S. in Equestrian Science. Jessica spent many years competing at rated shows and has ridden in clinics with top equestrians such as Joe Fargis and Linda Allen. Known for her approachable style, she emphasizes form, function, and fun, helping riders build strong foundations.

We are constantly growing, always learning, and excited for what’s next. Our mission is to create a program where riders can enjoy the partnership with their horse, progress toward their goals, and experience the joy of riding in a way that fits their life.
