About our clinician:
Kimberlee Barker is a Masters Level Working Equitation and USDF Grand Prix Dressage rider, trainer, and competitor. Kimberlee is a recognized Working Equitation Coach in USAWE’s Coaches Network, has earned her USAWE Pewter, Bronze, Silver, and Platinum Medals. Kimberlee is currently only the third person in the U.S. to have earned a Platinum Medal and the first to earn it with the new stricter requirements through USAWE. A graduate with distinction of the USDF “L” Judge Education Program, Kimberlee has earned her USDF Bronze and Silver Medals and has nearly completed her Gold.
Kimberlee is known for taking “non-traditional” dressage horses up the levels, and her most recent dressage partner, RedPrairie Storm (Dales Pony) earned the Reserve Champion placing in the Oregon Dressage Society’s 2021 State Championships in the Training Level Open Division, as well as being the high point horse, out of all breeds, competing in WE in 2023. Kimberlee and her long-term dressage partner Gladheart Black Harris (Morgan) are currently competing at Prix St. Georges and plan to compete at Grand Prix in 2024.
Recognizing that Working Equitation uses dressage principles to create a relaxed, athletic, and obedient horse in both traditional dressage work and in dressage through obstacles, Kimberlee believes that this sport creates the ultimate harmonious relationship with the horse. She enjoys working with all breeds of horses and teaches students from Introductory to Masters in Working Equitation, and Training Level to FEI in Dressage. Kimberlee judges and teaches clinics in both Working Equitation and Dressage and is based in Corvallis, Oregon.
