Roz Moskovits has been a Riding Instructor for almost three decades!

While still a student at the Nova Scotia Agricultural College in the early 1980's, Roz was kindly encouraged by Al McNutt director of the Equine Unit and her instructor at the time, to teach the afternoon beginner lessons.

This led to an interest in attaining her certification as a Canadian Equestrian Federation Coach. Before challenging the coaching exam Roz gained valuable training and competition experience as a working student with the International Jumper Rider, John Kersley, and then returned to the NSAC to attend the coaching preparatory course with Mary Lew Murray.

In May of 1986 Roz successfully completed the CEF Coaching Level 1 Exam at Linden Farms in PEI. During her time employed at the NSAC, Roz became very involved in the Therapeutic Riding Program and completed her certification as a Canadian Therapeutic Riding Instructor in June of 1991.

Once certified, an offer to become the Facility Manager and head Riding Instructor of Clovelly Stables in St Johns NL kept her occupied for ten months until returning to the NSAC as full time Riding Instructor and lecturer.

With a keen interest in advancing her skills as a competitive rider, trainer and coach Roz accepted the offer to take over the Riding Lesson Program at Sunrise Stables in Greenfield.  During her time at Sunrise, a very vibrant lesson program was developed accommodating the needs of beginner riders, adult riders, summer campers from all of the Maritimes, competitive students, regular schooling and National level competitions, and a very successful Pony Club and Equestrian Club.

Roz continued to recieve regular instruction during this time from her coach, Susan Fraser as well as visiting clinicians such as Cara Whitham, Cindy Ishoy, Lorraine MacDonald and Gary Vander Ploeg.

During this time, Roz attained her Equine Canada Coaching Level 2 in Dressage.

Finally in August of 1998, Roz and her husband Rick opened the doors of their own facility. Click on "the Stables" to learn more about this facility and the activities within.
