Sabine Schut-Kery captured the attention of dressage enthusiasts around the world when she competed in the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. She and Sanceo displayed elegance, harmony, balance, and poise in one of the world’s highest-stakes and most competitive environments. With every ride, the pair achieved a new all-time personal best score, surpassing the elusive 80% twice, helping to secure the United States Team Silver Medal, and culminating with an impressive fifth place in the world in the individual competition. Sabine’s path to the Olympics, however, involves quite a unique history. German-born and classically educated within the German system, her career began in the entertainment industry, where she trained and showcased horses in exhibitions. Those exhibition years are why Sabine is who she is today and are an invaluable part of her success in the sport of dressage. It is during this time she developed her training philosophy, techniques, and style that she has taken into the dressage arena. In 2005, Sabine made the decision to focus solely on developing horses for the sport of dressage. She remains true to her German classical dressage roots and trains under Olympian Christine Traurig. She bases her business at The Palms Equestrian Center in San Diego, California. Of the many critical components that involve training, Sabine prioritizes the welfare of the horse above all else. “When I train a horse, it is important to me to interact with him, not only on a physical level, but a mental one, as well. I feel it is my responsibility to safeguard the spirit and the soul of the horse.”
