About Us

Hello! We are Shana and Thomas Ritter.

We live in Portugal where we work with riders of all skill levels, all disciplines, and all types of horses. We have published two books on dressage, one based on biomechanics and the other about the work on the longrein. Our next soon-to-be released book is a systematic  process to train the Flying Changes.

Having taught clinics throughout USA, Canada, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and The Netherlands, we now teach online courses empowering everyday riders like YOU to train your horse - yourself. We give you the tools to understand the what, the why, and the how.
