About Nancy

I have been very lucky to have traveled the world with my horses and had the opportunity to study with Top Performers at the Elite levels. Through this experience, I have developed effective strategies for balancing life with horses and family, success in competition as well as finding harmony and happiness in daily life.

I am passionate about helping young athletes find the tools they need to stay confident in the show ring while still experiencing the joy that being a young person should bring.

“I first met Nancy Lavoie when I was sixteen through her junior dressage camp at Ashby Stock Farm in Ashby Massachusetts. From this time, I have continued to train with Nancy at least every other month. Through this time with Nancy, I have not only developed my riding, but I have also developed my mental awareness. She has influenced my mental state to a more positive and relaxed place. Through different exercises, she has taught me how to slow my mind and control my anxieties. She has created ways to tangibly find a path to achieving my goals.  I have found that she brings out the best in all her students and clients. Each person has something to take away from working with her.”

why work with me?

I have a passion for horses and helping people succeed. I believe we are all capable of achieving what we set our minds to. My dream is that I can create a bridge between the reason you started riding and the success you want in competition with your horse. I have spent my life building this bridge for myself and it is with great enthusiasm that I pass this information on to you.

My goal is to help you:

  • Map out a blueprint for finding your identity and achieving your dreams
  • Learn strategic planning and goal setting in your athletic life and your personal life
  • Stay grounded at horse shows
  • Learn how to balance your health, work and school obligations, family dynamics and work/life balance
  • Achieve your goals and dreams

"I've worked very hard to learn all I can about how to ride, and how to teach people and train horses to move up through the levels. Over the years, I discovered that I could contribute even more by helping people find the right mindset for learning and competition.

Most recently in my career, I have been studying, attending seminars and developing a super program for helping others succeed. I don't imagine I will ever give up training horses, however, expanding my program to include personal and performance coaching has been a truly gratifying experience for me!"
