Margo Hepner-Hart has been a trainer for
over 30 years for Arabians, half Arabians, Saddlebreds, Friesians, and
many other breeds. Training in driving, English pleasure, western
pleasure, dressage, saddle seat, equitation, and showmanship.
As a youth she showed hunter/jumper and eventing in Canada at big
shows with 30-40 horses in each class.
As time went on she decided that dressage was her true calling and
went head on into the dressage field. Took from the best trainers from
Germany, and was very successful in the show ring.
After she finished school she kept on with her education for dressage
and started her own training facility. She was given a grant thru the
USET to further her studies abroad. She then studied in Germany with
Gerhard Politz for several months and then a couple of years
later, Mr. Politz moved to California and she then moved there and
worked for him as his assistant trainer. Then moved back to her own
facility.
Since back home she has been in the successful business of training,
instructing and judging horse shows nationally and internationally.
In her own barn she shows 5 gaited Saddlebreds, Dressage, Park, and
English Pleasure, with half Arabs. And for the fun of it has mini
donkeys and a mule and various other animals to keep things
interesting.
