Debbie Kondoff has been working with and training dressage horses for the past 40 years. Originally, a hunt seat equitation rider in Michigan, she got interested in the beauty of dressage by watching her coach, Mike Sutton train Beppo to levels of International competition. While at MSU Vet School, Debbie eeked out time to pursue her dressage training under the tutelage of several prominent dressage instructors gaining experience riding different breeds such as Lipizzaners, Arabians, Morgans, Standardbreds, Thoroughbreds, as well as the occasional warmblood. Although all horses benefitted through dressage training, it was apparent some just had a better aptitude for the work. (Source)
