"In my first year at the barn, both Pickles and I have grown tremendously. He’s happier than ever, thriving with his pasture mates, and his overall demeanor and condition have completely transformed. Together, we reached many of our adult amateur goals, including competing in our first dressage show, and our partnership has deepened in meaningful ways.

Amber has supported me with unwavering positivity and determination, helping me overcome significant riding fears and hurdles. She is a joy to train with and even introduced us to western dressage, which we’re excited to pursue this year. Her encouragement has renewed my passion for riding and inspired me to push past every boundary. The barn community she’s created is just as special—welcoming, supportive, and united by a shared love and commitment to our horses. Amber is an exceptional caretaker and trainer, and simply a wonderful person to be around. I’m so excited for what the future holds."

"Owning a horse has been my childhood dream, and I’m endlessly grateful to have found Amber and the ALE family. She ensures that my mare, Lainey, is always safe, happy, and well cared for. Amber is not only an insightful and gifted trainer, but also incredibly supportive of my personal journey as a rider. She’s there to guide me every step of the way while giving Lainey the confidence she needs in new situations that are beyond my current skill set. We truly couldn’t have found a better barn to call home."

“Thanks to Amber and ALE, I was able to return to riding and showing with a renewed sense of confidence and purpose. Amber’s expert guidance has been truly transformational—not only for me, but for my horse, Kyzer as well. Through her thoughtful instruction and unwavering support, our skills strengthened, our partnership deepened, and our progress exceeded my expectations. I’m incredibly grateful to be part of a program where growth is encouraged, confidence is restored, and anything truly feels possible.”

“I am incredibly grateful to have been accepted into the Amber Lopresti Equestrian program and cannot recommend Amber highly enough. Coming from a Hunter background, I was seeking a program that would prioritize thoughtful, correct development rather than rushed progress—and Amber has exceeded every expectation.

Amber is deeply committed to proper fundamentals, helping riders rebuild their position from the ground up while developing a true understanding of correct equitation. She has a rare ability to clearly explain how the horse should use his body and how the rider’s position and aids support that work. Her instruction is classical, precise, and always rooted in what is best for the horse.

Beyond her exceptional teaching, Amber has been an invaluable partner in helping me find the right horse—one suited to my goals, abilities, and long‑term aspirations. She approaches this process with honesty, care, and genuine investment in her riders’ success.

What truly sets Amber apart is that all of this correct, disciplined work takes place in an atmosphere that is positive, encouraging, and truly enjoyable. Her program challenges you to improve every ride while reminding you why you fell in love with horses in the first place. I feel incredibly fortunate to be learning from Amber and wholeheartedly recommend Amber Lopresti Equestrian to any rider seeking correct training, thoughtful horsemanship, and a supportive, joyful program.”

“At a time when we urgently needed a new barn, discovering Amber and Alex at ALE felt nothing short of a blessing. From the very start, we were welcomed with genuine kindness and open arms. Our horse was navigating multiple health challenges and could be reactive, but the care, patience, and compassion shown by the ALE team meant everything to us.

Equally important, we have an autistic daughter, and finding an environment where she felt safe, comfortable, and truly accepted was essential. Amber and the entire ALE family embraced her immediately, making her feel loved and completely at home.

Amber is truly exceptional, and ALE has become the home we didn’t even realize we needed. We are endlessly grateful to be part of such a supportive, understanding, and compassionate barn community.”

“Amber’s biomechanics-based training has been truly transformative for my riding. Her approach brought clarity and purpose to my position, communication, and overall effectiveness in the saddle. The improvement in my partnership with my horse has been remarkable—I feel more balanced, connected, and confident every ride. This training has been a complete game changer.”
