More about Julie

JULIE COCHRAN DRESSAGE

  • USDF Gold, Silver, and Bronze Medalist
  • USDF "L" Graduate with Distinction
  • USDF Certified Instructor - Fourth Level

USDF Gold Medalist Julie Cochran, a native of South Florida, began her love affair with dressage as so many of us do- a mesmerized young girl in love with her beautiful Arabian gelding. As Julie grew, her passion for horses grew, too. 

Finding her calling in dressage in her early twenties, Julie has been a full time dressage trainer for over 30 years. Julie earned her Gold Medal on her own gelding, Poseidon, who she trained from training level through Grand Prix. A seasoned competitor, Julie has competed numerous horses at shows across the South and many in FEI Level competition.

Julie loves to ride and compete and her true passion lies in training dressage riders and fostering harmonious relationships with their equine partners. Specializing in classical dressage, Julie emphasizes correct basics, balance for the horse, and building confidence for the rider. Julie works with all breeds of horses and every level from young horses all the way up to Grand Prix. With her training method, Julie has helped numerous clients achieve their USDF Medals as well as Year-End Awards, Regional, and National Titles.

Julie is passionate about helping you achieve your dreams with your horse!
