Raquel Santos has always loved horses. Her experience began at an early age with her father, Carlos Santos, a jockey turned FEI dressage trainer. As she grew up learning in her father's business, she loved the concept that a rider could dance with horses.

 

To further her riding education she went to Dressuurtal Van Baalen, home of Coby and Marlies Van Baalen for 6 months to learn the ways to run a successful dressage competition barn.

 

She returned to California to re-start her business in Southern California 2019. She has developed and competed horses from training level to FEI.  

​

She is currently based in Orange County at Peacock Hill Equestrian Center, where she is developing a dressage sales program and training horses and their clients in competing.
