Susan Watkins has been training and competing in Working Equitation since 2010 when she accepted an invitation to help organize the sport in the USA.

Rose Watt has been competing in Working Equitation since 2009. Beginning with a Riding Master’s dual major degree from Meredith Manor over 40 years ago, she and her students have shown successfully in Working Equitation, IALHA Nationals Morgan Nationals, Regional Dressage, and Quarter Horse Western Riding events. She believes Working Equitation is the perfect sport. It has a logical progression through the levels and allows both horse and rider to safely enjoy dressage, obstacles, jumping and speed. It’s the perfect place to gather, learn, and to enjoy great people and great events.
