Vefele's Equine Partnerships
Vefele’s Equine Partnerships (VEP) was established in 2012 by Vefele Petruik to provide quality education that brings horses and riders together in harmony. In addition to serving the established dressage community, VEP aims to provide both competitive and non-competitive riders with a safe and fun environment to grow their relationships with their horses.
While pursuing success in the show ring, miscommunications often arise that can damage the relationship between horse and rider. The focus at VEP is to foster the classical collaboration that harmonizes communication between partners.
At VEP, we work with you by providing common sense and readily understood techniques that strengthen the bond between you and your horse. This bond is based on sympathy, confidence, and respect, and as such, will be a strong, enduring bond.
We at VEP work tirelessly with all riders at all levels and in all disciplines to help each individual rider build a lifelong synergy with his/her horse, and we want to help you do the same.
