I have been training with Dennesy for over a year now, and I am so happy with the progress I have made. She is extremely positive and consistently encouraging, which has helped my confidence and approach to riding. She is very attentive during my lessons and the corrections she makes are very effective. This supportive atmosphere is what makes every lesson something to look forward to.
Beyond her interpersonal skills, what sets Dennesy apart is her deep commitment to the welfare of the horses. Her entire philosophy, from her hands-on teaching methods to her own riding demonstrations, unequivocally shows that she always, without exception, has the horse's best interest in mind. This means our training is not just about achieving a movement or winning a class, but about fostering a strong, harmonious, and ethical partnership. She emphasizes correct classical principles, ensuring that the horse remains sound, happy, and willing throughout their career.

Talisma Equestrian and Dennesy provide an exceptional environment for you and your horse. The barn is quiet and drama-free with plenty of amenities. The arena is amazing! Dennesy’s lessons are always well-structured and intended to provide a positive outcome for you and your horse. She’s always so encouraging and makes sure that you can understand what she’s asking with the utmost patience. This place is a dream!

What started as a catch ride blossomed into a solid partnership with my sensitive young horse Liam.
Dennesy faces each training challenge with a positive and kind determination. She structures Liam’s rides with progressive exercises, lots of praise and breaks that build his confidence and relaxation. And his topline has improved so much!
Liam is so happy and eagerly looks forward to his sessions with Dennesy. We’re so lucky to have her as a trainer.
