Hello from Lindsey, trainer at LP Dressage! I have been around horses my entire life, and doing dressage for almost 20 years. My interest, frustration, passion, and curiosity for saddles began at a young age with my Welsh Cob, McDuff. I believe in one year I bought and sold almost 10 saddles for him! Years and tons of horses later, I was still running into so many frustrations between functionality, support, fit to the horse, and fit for the rider. After moving to Texas in 2021, I met Jacquie and began consulting with her as a saddle fitter. In 2025, we really began collaborating on ideas and developing a language of feel versus vision, and jokingly, Jacquie decided I have a very educated tush- perfect for describing what and where things are lacking or too much.

Between her saddle fitting and engineering expertise, and my feel and finesse in the saddle, Encore Equestrian came to light. Jacquie is now training me how to flock and fit, on top of working together to thoughtfully curate your next favorite saddle!
