Introduction

At SJ EQ we train riders not only how to ride but how to become a partner with a 1200 lb animal. We focus mainly on dressage but teach jumping, western dressage, and basic horsemanship as well. I love watching riders learn a new technique or understanding a new concept. Teaching isn’t just my job but my passion and I love sharing my love with others.

I’ve been with SJ for a year now. I have made a lot progress in this short amount of time. My dressage seat has improved so much. In conjunction with that, my strength and endurance has also increased. Serenity has an intuitive approach to teaching that allows the rider and horse to grow together. She does a great job of tayloring each riding session to the need you have for that particular day. All this comes together to create a well balanced horse and rider.

Serenity is an amazing trainer and motivator. Not only does she coach me personally, but she also trains my horses and does such a great job! I can see a huge difference in my riding and my horses’ willingness to learn!

The best trainer in the entire world ever. I am so happy riding with Mrs. Serenity and we all love her so much. Once you're apart of the SJ Equestrian family you're real family. We all stick up for each other and we all get along. I couldn't ask for a better horse trainer, advice giver, or friend, than Serenity Villar.

I’m so glad to be apart of the SJ equestrian team! This group is truly what it means to be supportive and encouraging! Serenity is an amazing educator to say the least! Most instructors just bark orders and don’t bother to explain WHY you’re doing what they ask. Serenity takes the time to patiently explain everything in a way that you feel like you are communicating with the horse and that you feel like you are working together. I’m amazed as to how far I’ve come in my riding and how confident I feel!

I have been riding with SJ for a year now. During this time my dressage seat has improved greatly. I have gained strength and endurance as a rider. Under Serenity's tutelage I have enjoyed building my confidence and advancing my riding skills. I am enjoying the process of becoming a better rider.
