Meet the Business Owner

Sarah K.

Business Owner

Sarah Klifa has been involved extensively in riding for more than a

dozen years. Going back generations, her family has been involved in

competitive riding, from the Olympics to instructors at the exclusive

«Cadre Noir» in Saumur, the French Military equivalent of the Spanish

Riding School in Vienna. Sarah trained under Kathy Hobstetter, a well known «A» circuit trainer in S. California where she proved her dedication early on as a working student. Kathy put Sarah on many difficult horses, off the track horses and German imports. She soon proved her ability to turn horses around and give them the opportunity of a bright future.

As a trainer and barn manager Sarah has worked under Kathy Hobstetter and Robert and Hillary Ridland.

Now a barn owner, Sarah has been praised for her ability to teach even the most complicated concepts of riding in the most simple and understandable ways. Doesn’t matter who the student is Sarah makes the «learning experience» a priority.
