Angelika enjoyed an illustrious competition career which in turn led her down the path of becoming an international judge. "From my own experience as a competition rider I can only advise every competitor to take part in judges' seminars," she remarks. "They give a more objective view on everything and one's own riding improves significantly due to this."

The Equestrian Center at Pineland Farms is providing excellence in dressage education, with the goal of creating highly skilled professional and amateur riders and trainers to steward classical principles and ethical practices within the sport of dressage in the United States. Its holistic approach encompasses off-the-horse fitness; theory-to-practice; instruction on equine schoolmasters; and the athletic development of both rider and horse, while promoting the respectful treatment and longevity of these equine partners.
