Nancy Anheuser has been interested in horses since a child, starting with lessons at age 10 earning Horsemanship badge through Girl Scouts. She owned her 1st horse at age 21 when she graduated from Nursing school. Nancy has learned a lot from the many horses she has owned since then. Horses are the best teachers if we are ready to listen and learn. Nancy is currently retired from Nursing. She loves to work with beginning horse lovers, teaching them the foundations of riding safely and most of all to respect and care for the horses who are their best teachers.

Jodie has been a riding instructor at Pine Ridge Riding Center for the past two years. Her love for horses started at a very young age when she baby sat horses for a family friend. When she was 10, she began taking riding lessons here and her love for horses has never stopped. At 15, she was given the opportunity to teach riding lessons to beginners which has become a strong passion. Her goal is to be a professional riding instructor and horse trainer. Outside of teaching she also shows in 4H and at local hunter shows. She’s so grateful for the opportunities here at Pine Ridge and is excited to be a part of this years' horse camps.
