Erika is from Philadelphia, USA, and has been riding professionally
since an early age - mainly in show hunter and showjumping. She has competed to 1m50 and been placed to 1m45,
and won major championships in show hunter and show jumping in the
USA.
In NZ Erika has competed up to 1m25 (on Karen Niederer's
ex-eventer, Roannie) and is currently our stud rider and trainer. Erika
has been competing TP Conversana for us this season - taking her from
90cm at the beginning of the season up to 1m20 (placed at her first
1m20). She will be showjumping JK Latano this winter as well. She has
also competed TP By George in dressage (the first time she has ridden
dressage) for many placings.
Erika has many years of experience
teaching and training different levels of riders and horses. She is
really great with kids and adults alike, is always encouraging without getting tense, and is a positive and helpful trainer. She can get on and ride the horse or
pony too (Erika is only tiny). Students so far say they've learned
more from her than many other instructors in NZ.
At the moment Erika can only teach at Tielcey Park as she and her fiance have only one car. Ground levies apply.

Andrea Raves is originally from Germany and has now been in New
Zealand for more than 20 years. She has the German qualification of ‘Reitleher
FN', is a Dressage NZ ‘A Grade Trainer', and is an ESNZ Grade 4 Coach
and Assessor. In recent years she has been the recipient of several
Prime Minister's High Performance Scholarships, which have enabled her
to make trips back to Germany to observe some of the world's top
trainers at work.
Andrea represented New Zealand several times at Grand Prix level in
Australia with ‘Greendowns Fetterman', and has gained several National
and ‘Horse of the Year' titles on different horses.
Since 2001 Andrea has been the Training and Rider Development Officer
for Dressage NZ. For more than 10 years now she has been teaching in
Young Rider squad programmes for Dressage NZ and has taught Eventing
Squads.
Her teaching philosophy is based on the "Scale of Training" and "making
a true connection over the horses back by dropping the base of the
neck" is one key issue in her lessons. Without this connection there
will be no collection!
She has written her philosophies down in "The Road to Collection".
Andrea travels throughout the country teaching from Northland to
Dunedin. She visits Tielcey Park, Hastings, Nelson and Blenheim on a regular
basis.
