Kristen Bramley, Owner and Head Trainer at Kasson Ridge, has been riding for over twenty years. Everything from “schoolies” to the competitive show horse. She has been competing on the “A” circuit for over 15 years. Kristen has shown her own horses in the hunters, jumpers and equitation. She has also done some lower level dressage and eventing. She has ridden with dressage riders such as Lendon Gray and Kathy Connelly on her own horses as well as clients’ horses. She has ridden with hunter and jumper riders such as Lisa Jaquin, Rusty Holzer, Jenni Martin, and Eric Horgan.

Kristen has been raising and training her own horses since the late 90’s. She has brought her own horses through the ranks with wins at horse shows such as Old Salem Farm, Fairfield, Ox Ridge, HITS Ellenville, and many other local shows such as the Farmington horse show. She enjoys starting young horses as well as fixing troubled horses.

Kristen has many years experience managing large training facilities as well as breeding farms. She has clients that have shown on the local circuit as well as the “A” circuit. She teaches beginners through advanced, green horses through the seasoned veterans.

Her primary goal is to install confidence in both horse and rider and teach them the most that they can absorb. Her future goals are to continue to bring young, green horses, kids and adults, and ponies through the ranks of the horse show world, beginning with good basics and ending with confident champions.
