Cindy has been riding since she was 8-years old. She has been training with Jodie since she purchased her 9-yr old, 17.2h Oldenburg gelding by Riverman named Raconteur,
in early 2005. Since then she has also been a very active competitor.
Cindy and Raconteur qualified for the USDF Region 3 Dressage Championships in their first two show seasons topped off
by a top 10 finish in the AA Training Level Championship in 2006. After the 2006 Championships, Cindy's 9-year old Oldenburg gelding wasn't sure he wanted to move up
the levels. Raconteur just wasn't sure Dressage was his sport. So, he had all of 2007 and most of 2008 off to 'find himself'. Raconteur returned
to the Dressage ring at the November, 2008 Blue Angel Dressage Show capturing the High Point award for the show with a score of 73.600%.
With Jodie's help and expertise, Cindy purchased her second dressage partner in 2007, Utrillo. Utrillo is a 16.3h Dutch Warmblood gelding by Neptune. The pair has steadily
moved up the levels, earning her USDF Bronze medal in 2012, capturing the 3rd Level Reserve Championship for Adult Amateurs at the
2013 USDF Region 3 Dressage Championships and represented Region 3 at the inagural US Dressage Finals in the same year.
Cindy has qualified for the 2014 USDF Region 3 Dressage Championships at both 3rd and 4th Levels and is currently schooling Utrillo at
Prix St Georges.
Cindy's goal is to return to the US Dressage National Finals with Utrillo. With these goals in mind, Cindy devotes much of her time and resources to lessons with Jodie.
Cindy finds that one of the great joys of riding is the ongoing process of working towards and achieving improvement.
Cindy and her husband, Glenn, own Morningstar Farm - a small private farm in Southport, Florida. Cindy trailers to Destin weekly for lessons. Her husband
maintains the Jodie Kelly Dressage website.
