Licensed Foundation Level

James Riedeman, a recently appointed Foundation Level Instructor of the Philippe Karl Ecole de Legerete, lives in Albuquerque New Mexico, USA. James is a life long student of the horse. A native of Michigan, he began his education in the official competition dressage methodology. With much work, he progressed through the levels as far as the Grand Prix. From there he proceeded to graduate the L judges program. In his professional training, James always wanted to produce a horse who is calm, supple, loose, confident and keen. His search lead him to the Ecole de Legerete (school of Legerete). Under the careful instruction of Master Instructor Bertrand Ravoux, James was able to navigate the years-long intensive Teacher’s Course program and finally achieve the level of Foundation Instructor. With a fundamental respect for the horse firmly in mind, James is now willing and able to share the knowledge of the school with interested parties. He is available for clinics throughout in the USA at your facility. He is also able to teach and train at his ranch in New Mexico.
