A little bio on Annie Bright Proffitt
(as told by her husband because she is WAY to humble)
Annie has been on horseback nearly her whole life. She has successfully competed on the A-Circuit in Hunters and Jumpers, but has since focused her career on Eventing over the last 6 years. She loves teaching lessons to both adults and kids- her enthusiasm for horses and riding is truly contagious. Everyone around her picks up on her passion for not only the horse but for the rider.
What separates her from the average instructor is her desire to teach the student to not only ride, but to properly care for a horse. She has a eye that sees things most instructors don't. Watching her kids versus others at shows always makes me so proud. She really makes an impact on these kids riding ability, responsibility and ultimately their lives as a whole.
Bottom line all of this is not only her passion but her life. Countless nights I wonder whether I'll come home to a barn slumber party, or her helping one of her students study for their upcoming school test. Or even her spending hours (an i mean hours) on end searching for the right horse, the perfect saddle or the best boots for one of her students. It amazes me the lengths she will go for her students. She is hands down a top tier person, top tier instructor and a top tier equestrian.
