About Pierre Cousyn
Grand Prix Dressage
Pierre has been my partner and teacher for the past 7 years and I am lucky to have him as a full-time trainer. Pierre has an incredible talent to quickly identify underlying causes for tension between the horse and rider and is able to explain solutions with an easy to understand "how" as well as "why", with both kindness and patience. The focus is on relaxation, trust and correct training. His passion for the horses makes him a joy to watch ride and teach.
Pierre has 40 years of experience in 6 countries.
He was formally educated in Europe and is a two-time graduate of the National Equitation School in Saumur, France, home of the prestigious Cadre Noir. He holds degrees in both Moniteur (Trainer) and Instructeur (Instructor for Professional Riders)

Pierre teaches all levels of dressage to Grand Prix, Eventers as well as flatwork for Hunter/Jumpers. Pierre places great emphasis on the importance of basic skills, even at the highest levels of dressage. He strongly believes that a happy relationship between horse and rider is the only way that dressage makes sense and that creating a strong foundation is the essential ingredient to success.
