Elizabeth King - Owner, Weltbrook Training Center
​
Elizabeth began her riding career in the hunter/jumper world, but her main focus switched to dressage in 1999. Her competitive dressage career began in 2004 and since then, she has competed with over twenty different horses at various levels from training level to Prix St. George. She has trained extensively with Tom Noone, Gunnar Ostergaard, and Melanie Southard.
Elizabeth works with many different levels of horses and riders, as well as riders of different disciplines. It is in her beliefs that the teachings of dressage can be used to help every horse and rider team better enjoy their time working together. The basis of dressage is to develop a balanced, straight, adjustable, and responsive horse.
This diverse history in the horse industry has given her a love and respect for all breeds and types of horses and taught her many skills that she uses daily in her approach to teaching and training. Through her experience with such varied needs (both human and equine) Elizabeth developed her philosophy that guides and structures her individual training techniques, fostering a complete understanding and connection between horse and rider.
