Dressage Clinics with Olympic Silver Medalist

Lisa Wilcox

Presented by Rick Silvia Dressage and FCEA, these weekend clinics will have something for everyone.

Lisa's teaching style is extremely detail oriented, she conveys her experience and wisdom with enthusiasm. “Do it with a smile” has always been Lisa’s motto. Her ability to articulate corrections and recommendations for improvement make her an outstanding clinician for auditors as well.

"I have yet to find a perfect horse. My objective is to work with their mental capabilities and gain their trust. That is how I come to understand them, which enables me to work with their physical deficiencies, if any. This takes time and patience...... Professional trainers know how many hours they must spend working on and improving the horse's weaknesses and mental capabilities. Think long-term, and you will not only have a horse that understands you but also one that enjoys what he is doing. This is the key to harmony." Lisa Wilcox

Colorado raised - Olympian Lisa Wilcox invested a large portion of her early dressage career training in Europe with some of the sport’s masters, including Herbert Rehbein and Ernst Hoyos. While residing in Germany, she passed the professional horse trainer, or Bereiter, and riding-instructor, or Reitlehrer, exams. She also served as the head trainer at Gestüt Vorwerk, one of Germany’s best-known Oldenburg stud farms, for seven years, riding such famous stallions as Rohdiamant, Royal Diamond and Relevant. She and Relevant won the individual silver medal at the 2003 Open European Championships and earned a team silver for the U.S. at the 2002 World Equestrian Games and a team bronze at the 2004 Olympics.

Lisa moved back to the U.S. in 2006 and started her teaching and training business based at Rick Silvia's Dream Street Stallions farm in Florida. Lisa and Rick Silvia teamed up to develop Dream Street Dressage (stallions) with many outstanding young prospects earning invitations to and placements at the Young Horse National Championships, Horse of The Year accolades at the FEI levels and even a spot as the USET alternate for the Young Horse World Championships (Lullaby - 2006). Lisa was instrumental in helping Rick further his riding education, shape his teaching style and become the competitor he is today.

In 2017, she won the World Cup Freestyle and Grand Prix at the Adequan Global Dressage Festival and posted the second-highest Grand Prix score at the Nations Cup in Wellington on Jacqueline Shear’s Galant. She also won the 2016 Palm Beach Derby National USEF Developing Horse class with Horses Unlimited’s stallion Gallant Reflection HU.
