Copyright 2008 Paige Pierce Training

After graduating from high school, Paige moved to New York for college and a great job opportunity working for Senator Howard Nolan at his breeding/training center.  Paige gained a vast knowledge in the breeding and training industry to add to her experiences of successful show riding, as well as continuing to ride, break and train with her Mother.  Paige held racetrack licenses from New York to Florida as an exercise rider.

Paige brings to her students her lifetime of experience in the show ring as a Jr. Champion to an adult competitor getting to the “Rolex” in 1985.  She also credits her success to her Mother, her Dressage coach Tony Mason of England and her experiences with former coach of the US Olympic team, Michael Page, in the late 80’s.

When she returned to the central coast in 2003, Paige brought back with her a lifetime of incredible experiences and successes. Those successes have brought her where she is today, with a great and successful group of competitors on the “A” circuit.  Paige invites new riders of all levels to join her team! 

Paige grew up here on the central coast with her first riding experience starting as a toddler.  Paige’s first coach and Mother started grooming her for her journey in the equine world at the age of 3, with her first pony “Sheila”.  “Sheila” was a Shetland pony small enough to bring home in the back of a VW “Bug” in 1967!

From there, Paige had a second pony and then at the age of 9 got her first horse “Top’O The Mark”.  Two years later in 1976, she and “Top ‘O The Mark” (Mingo) became CSHA’s Hunter/Jumper reserve champion horse and rider!

In 1977 a job change for Paige’s family took her to the East Coast.  Paige continued her success as a Jr. rider on the “A” show circuit from Virginia to Florida, with many championships from state to state.
