Meet the Trainers and Teamleaders!

Alex has been working with Icelandic Horses since 2000 and since then has worked for big names in the US and around the world starting at age 18. These accomplished trainers and instructors include Carrie Brandt and Terral Hill, Gudmar Petursson, and Laura Benson in the US, and champion trainers and breeders Eyrun Yr, Jessie Hujbers, and Omar Ingi Omarsson in Iceland. Alex was one of the first American trainers to be certified as a FEIF Trainer Level 1 under the USIHC system in 2022.

Alex has also had a successful competition record achieving the highest national ranking in both 2015 and 2016 in T4 (loose rein tolt competition), and received the highest national ranking in 2022 in Group Open Four Gait. Additionally Alex has been branching off into the discipline of Working Equitation, showing the versatility of the Icelandic Horse and her skills as a trainer in dressage and obstacle work. In 2022 she was the highest ranked Level 2 rider in the region and third nationally. Her unique work in bridleless riding has earned her special recognition and a special relationship with her horses.
