Rochelle Kilberg Dressage

12/13/2025

After 27 years running the boarding business at Hazelmere, it’s time for a new chapter. 💛

I’ve made the decision to wind down the horse-boarding side of my life, while continuing to coach students, travel for clinics, and focus on training my own horse.

I’m incredibly grateful for the wonderful friends, clients, and memories built along the way. What a ride it’s been — from years with every stall full (plus overflow in the private barn!) to long days of training horses and supporting riders. Thank you for the trust, loyalty, and community that made this place what it is and kept it thriving for so long.

This past year has brought grief, reflection, and a lot of perspective. Now feels like the right moment to slow the pace a little and make more room for family, friends, and time with my own horse. This isn’t goodbye to the horse world… just a shift. I’ll still be around, and I hope to see many of you at clinics, shows, and around the ring.

Thank you for being part of this chapter.

Here’s to the next one. ❤️🐴✨

If you’ve ever seen me compete or attend a clinic, you’d know my dad was always right there by my side. From loading the trailer in the early mornings to cheering from the sidelines and reminding me to believe in myself, he was my unwavering support system.

Whether it was long hauls traveling to California for competitions or being there for every ride, he never missed a moment. His faith—both in me and in the higher power—was always a guiding light. He encouraged me to trust the journey, strive for my best, and approach everything with gratitude and belief.

This picture is a beautiful reminder of his presence, his dedication, and the spiritual strength he brought into every moment.

Last Saturday, we lost my biggest supporter, my motivator, and my hero. My heart feels heavy, but I’m endlessly grateful for the lessons he taught me, the memories we shared, and the faith he inspired in me.

Thank you for everything, Dad. You were more than a supporter—you were a legend. Your love and faith will forever guide me. ❤

🌟 Huge thank you to Leslie Reid, Wendy Christoff, and all the amazing volunteers, sponsors, and generous donors who made the Team Strategy Pathway Symposium possible! 🌟

Your dedication and hard work brought our community together for a weekend full of learning and growth. Special thanks to Dieter Laugks from Germany for sharing his insights on throughness, relaxation, and balance. His emphasis on well-rounded training was inspiring, and it was incredible to see the progress in each horse.

It was Hoejbo (aka Beaux) and my first outing in a large spectator environment, and he was a superstar—handled it like a champ! A big thank you to my dad, my biggest cheerleader, for making it possible to have such a special horse. Here’s to building on these lessons and continuing to strive for excellence! 🐴💫

Thank you 📸 Marion Cox Photography! You captured many beautiful pictures of us!

Thank you 🙌 Amanda and Odette for helping me level and Harrow our low-maintenance textured, dust-free footing.

We purchased this footing several years ago from Footings First LLC.

One of the best choices we made when doing footing improvements to our stable.
