Suzanne Galdun - https://positivelydressage.com/
Suzanne is one of only nine rider biomechanics coaches in the US currently accredited by Mary Wanless in her Ride With Your Mind method, and has been studying under Mary for over 10 years. Based in the suburbs of Chicago, IL, Suzanne has become a highly sought after clinician herself, teaching all levels of riders and horses, helping riders make small changes in their body to facilitate positive change in the horse.
​
While staying accessible to the local grass roots dressage community, Suzanne also coaches international FEI riders such as Lauren Sprieser and Jessica Jo Tate, as well as many of their students in clinics. Lauren notes that Suzanne’s teaching is “exceptional, accessible to all levels of rider, and intensely valuable to riders and auditors alike.” JJ has had Suzanne as a guest on her podcast and Facebook live discussions, connecting Suzanne’s style of teaching with her own classical training background. In 2023, Suzanne was a featured presenter at Equine Affaire Ohio, presenting both riding clinics and unmounted interactive lectures. She also is working with RideiQ.
