I am a 31 year young Egyptian Arabian (DO NOT BE FOOLED BY MY AGE, I STILL ACT LIKE A KID SOMETIMES) who teaches many timid riders to canter and learn to confidently ride. My trustworthy and honest work ethic in and out of the arena, and on trails/beach rides lets me help you to improve your skills. You will love me as I am a barn favorite! I have taught hundreds how to ride. I am SO happy to be a part of the Breezy Meadow Equestrian Centre Family!
Background:
Over the course of my horsey life, I have been a RACEHORSE in Delaware as a youngster, then was sold to a boy for trail riding who had me for 8 years. Also, at Rusmill Farm Stable when I was 16, I met Regina, and became a wonderful lesson horse. Being honest in my work ethic, my partner, Regina, always says, “I am WORTH MY WEIGHT IN GOLD!” I have taught so many to canter and confidently ride on trails and over jumps. I can excel at Western Pleasure, Ranch Riding, and Western Dressage. I am able to STILL do gymkhana/speed events quite well and fast! You have to KNOW what you are doing on me when it is “GAME ON” at the Western Shows as I AM QUITE FAST!
My talents are in Western Dressage, Trails/Beach Rides, Lessons, Themed Festivals/Party Pony/Unicorn Rides, Camps, Gymkhana Speed Events, Beginner Xrails, teaching bareback canter and just an overall confidence builder horse.
ZERO VICES: NO BUCK, SPOOK, REAR, KICK, OR BITE.

Winston is a beloved, steady, 11 yr old 16.3 Thoroughbred. He is light bay with tons of chrome, who is a perfect hunter and equitation mount for the intermediate and advanced riders looking for a classic English horse. He goes both English and Western. Winston is ridden by multiple riders, ages 9-59 year olds and always is a steady packer. He is very uncomplicated and sweet. Winston is consistently the same at shows and at home. Always champion as he commands the attention and catches the judge's eye. He willingly goes out on trails and is with you every step of the way, or packs his rider around safely and allows them to learn proper form and is sure to win your heart. He is a barn favorite.

I am a wonderfully smooth, yet zippy 28 yr old 14.2 hand chestnut pinto Welsh Cross mare (I am NOT mare-ish except when playing with Sierra on my free time). With ZERO vices or spookiness, I am a lovely trail mare and also willingly do pony parties/themed festivals, lessons, beach and trail rides.
Enjoying life MORE than EVER, I am thriving on the love at our barn who celebrate my talent.
Background:
My name used to be Leah, but was changed to Autumn to match my “burnt red/orange/copper penny, fall colored” coat. I was a rescue pony before coming to Breezy Meadow Equestrian Centre. Over the course of my horsey life, I have possibly had a foal or several foals, which my owner, Regina noticed. She saw something in me that was special and didn’t hesitate (even though my papers stated clearly “AGED,
which means over 19) to give me a chance to become a great mare for our riders and a welcomed addition to this barn family. I can do gymkhana quite well and fast! You have to KNOW what you are doing on me when it is “GAME ON” at the Western Shows or in the Jumper Ring as I AM ALSO LIGHTNING
FAST, YET SMOOTH!
I am extremely loved by a sweet girl named, Molly, who willingly shares me with others on days when I am needed for beach or pony rides, trails, or other lessons/camp.
When we are at home or at festivals/parties, I am gentle and patient for pony rides, camp, and lessons. I am NON SPOOKY and LOVE trail riding.
My talents are in Advanced Youth or Adult Rider Lessons, Trails/Beach Rides, Party Pony/Unicorn
Rides, and Camps.

I am a 18 year old bay quarter horse mare affectionately known to our Breezy Meadow Equestrian Centre Barn Family as “Bee”. I had some training issues that were worked through by Regina who saw SO much MORE in me, and that I was not a good fit for my former owner. I fit perfectly here and soon became a Breezy Meadow Equestrian Centre Barn Favorite loved by many! Being known as a “Babysitter Horse” has earned me the trust of taking little tikes 3 and up around the arena at the walk, trot,
and canter. I am very honest in lessons especially with very young riders who learn by my willingness to allow them to guide me and learn proper riding and communication. I am great at Western Dressage and Riding yet am rock solid on the trails, on beach rides, and at pony parties/festivals. My gifts allow youngsters and adults to canter for the first time while not on a longe line. Regina trusts me enough to “know” my job and knows my honest work ethic. I am able to excel at both English and Western and
able to do Mini and Short Stirrup Division classes with xrails at shows. I have had a couple of foals
(horse babies) and continue to be motherly to my riders.
Background:
Over the course of my horsey life, I have been a mommy, and a barn favorite at Baymar before being sold to another stable. I was, in my younger years, known as Maria there. When I was 12, I met Regina, and after some serious retraining became a wonderful lesson horse. Regina, always says, “I am, like Cloud, WORTH MY WEIGHT IN GOLD!” I have taught OVER 100 riders and counting to canter and confidently ride on trails and on the flat. I can excel at Western Pleasure, Ranch Riding, and Western Dressage.
My talents are in Western Dressage, Trails/Beach Rides, Lessons, Themed Festivals/Party
Pony/Unicorn Rides, Camps, Beginner Xrails, teaching bareback canter and just an overall
confidence builder horse. Also, I am a great candidate for a therapy horse.

I love doing pony parties/themed festival rides, yet I have one question, WHY do I have to wear that unicorn horn?”
Before coming to Breezy Meadow Equestrian Centre, I was turned out in a field, my basic needs met, yet I did not have anyone visiting me or the love that I so need to thrive.
Now, I am enjoying life MORE than EVER and am thriving on the love of a gentle soul named Amanda. She truly loves me with her whole heart yet unselfishly shares me with others.
Over the course of my horsey life, I have had a successful career as a CHAMPION PONY JUMPER at PONY FINALS in Kentucky and also have been a CHAMPION barrel racing pony. I do gymkhana quite well and fast! You have to KNOW what you are doing on me when it is “GAME ON” at the Western Shows or in the Jumper Ring as I AM LIGHTNING FAST!
Sierra
Have you ever ridden a gaited horse? It is a uniquely smooth ride. That describes me. I am a Chestnut and White Paint (Spotted Saddle Horse). I stand at 15 hands and love giving lessons. I also go out on trails because I am calm and smooth. I am great for my mature (gals in their 50's/60's) riders and also take good care of first time riders on the trail. I especially enjoy treats from my riders so feel free to visit me soon :)
Bella - Show name: Fire and Ice
I am a 10 year old Quarab (Quarter Horse/Arabian). I am a Liver Chestnut mare with a dorsal stripe and chocolate velvet accents, a white strip on my face, and one white sock. Riders love my super smooth trot and cute mannerisms. I stand at 14 hands.
Students at Breezy Meadow train with me for Horse Shows. I am a hunter jumper. But I belong to Diane :)

The Nervous Rider You really want to do this! But you are so nervous, you keep playing disastrous scenarios in your head until you psych yourself out. Time to go for it! You are not getting any younger, and this is a lifelong dream of yours. Your “Horse Journey” needs to begin! You need an instructor with just the right balance of care, patience, high standards, integrity, strength, no nonsense mentality, and (did I already say?) patience. Regina Ennis is that person. She cares enough to make you do it until it is done correctly, no matter how long it takes. And yet she finds a way to end each lesson on a successful note, and let you know that you really did achieve something. Regina will be both sympathetic and empathetic to your needs. However, she will make certain that you learn to do all things involving horses the CORRECT way. This insures your safety, and well as that of her horses, and herself. She will calm your fears, and help you find your inner self confidence, which you sometimes find so elusive. Safety comes first with this instructor, then skill and confidence building. Regina is a very gifted instructor/trainer, with a lively personality, and a heart of gold. You have found the teacher you need. It is time to begin! I’m glad I did!

Three years ago, due to unfortunate circumstances, I had to find a new riding instructor. I found Regina Ennis and began riding under her tutelage. It was most fortunate for me. She has helped me in so many ways. She is an excellent encouraging teacher and has helped my riding both technically and mentally. My confidence has grown and I’ve been able to enjoy lifetime memories like challenging trail rides, beach rides and even a ride and canter in the snow. Regina is kind and giving and I’m proud to have her as a teacher and friend.

Regina has an innate connection with horses. She jumped on my mare and within ten minutes told me all about her past training as well as her strengths and weaknesses--all correct, because I know her previous owner. Within one lesson she taught me how to correct my horse's most problematic habit--something that has plagued me for a year. When you are on a trail ride with Regina or are taking a lesson, she doesn't just teach you 'shift your weight here' or 'move your leg there'. She helps you understand what is happening from the horse's perspective. She doesn't bully or force horses to do what she wants--she convinces them it was their idea!

Regina has been caring for my horses for several years. And my daughter took her very first pony ride with her six years ago. She is someone who truly loves all creatures, but is so incredible with horses. My mares have participated in lessons, trail rides and camps with Regina, and they are always happy and loved. She has a great knack for helping her student riders gain confidence and knowledge, and she really cares about each one of them. She has taken countless riders from their first pony ride to competitive shows. Whether you ride english, western, or not at all....Regina can take you from your first ride to being a confident jumper! She also does the best trail rides!!! So much fun!! And the facilities at the barn are top notch!!! Can't say enough about Regina and Breezy Meadow Equestrian! I highly recommend this knowledgeable horsewoman and her program to absolutely anyone! Give her a call! You will be so glad you did!

What a terrific ride today! Regina, I have to tell you how many times I've thought that I'm so thankful I found you. Don't ever underestimate the gift you give others. For me, you have taken a 59 year old woman who knew nothing about horses and instilled confidence that I'll be able to do what is needed to learn to ride. I have a long way to go but I'm getting there! I learn something
every time. When I leave I feel positive, confident and that I have accomplished something. And I have fun! I'm grateful for the time spent at Freedom Farm-for the learning, nature, peace and just being with you and the horses. It's my calm spot in a hectic life-very therapeutic!
Not everyone who calls themselves a teacher can teach. You're a wonderful teacher. You are energetic, positive, creative, fun and incredibly competent. And if that was not enough, you communicate your deep respect and love for horses and horsemanship. And it's obvious you want to share that and instill it in others.
I feel it's important that if we have good thoughts about others, we pass them on. And so I am. Thank you again, for your generosity of spirit and heart. And for giving so much more than a lesson.Always,Lois Martin
