Our Team

TRAINER & OWNER

Juliane Dykiel

I am a USDF bronze, silver, and gold medalist, as well as a proud owner of Singing Winds Farm. Based in Massachusetts, I offer specialized dressage training, private lessons, and sales to students of all levels, as well as full board at our Uxbridge facility. My passion is training horses through the levels, as well as diagnosing training issues. My love for horses began the first time I sat in the saddle, and has carried me through my long journey of training my own horses from the ground up (I love starting them myself!), seeking coaching from top riders, and teaching students of all levels. You can learn more about my path to dressage here.

ASSISTANT MANAGER

Mia Morningstar

My name is Mia Morningstar, I am 19 years old. I started riding when I turned 13, I had always loved horses and begged for lessons but not having the funds for it I became a working student. I worked at my first barn for several years, almost everyday learning and riding all different types of horses. Finally the time came and I was ready for a project. In 2021 I became the owner of Gambia, a 16yo Hanoverian mare. We started pursuing dressage, and I fell in love with the art of it. In 2024 I competed in my first dressage show, and earned my first third level score for my bronze medal. I am honored to be a part of the Juliane Dykiel Dressage team!

MEET THE TEAM

We are so grateful for our amazing team! Our barn family, working students, and partners help us keep our horses feeling and looking their best. We couldn't do it without them!

Liza Radstake

Liza is one of our talented and dedicated working students. Liza says: "I lived in the Netherlands my whole life and moved to the US during my freshman year of high school. I recently earned my USDF bronze medal at the end of the 2024 competition season. In addition, I currently compete my young mare Luna Clara MHF at second level, and recently imported a Dutch warmblood from the Netherlands who is currently in training. I love working with Juliane and helping out with the training of the horses."

Nick Iarussi

Nick and Juliane are the proud owners of Singing Winds Farm, the home base for Juliane Dykiel Dressage. Nick and Juliane have spent time traveling throughout the United States together with their horses, and as dedicated horse people they are both committed to providing top facilities, care, and support to the community of horses and humans at Singing Winds.

Anne Dykiel

The bug has to come from somewhere, and Juliane’s mom, Anne, is almost as horse-obsessed as she is. She is a phenomenal horse woman that specializes in solving behavioral issues on the ground, but is also wonderful in the saddle. She loves to use clicker training and positive reinforcement particularly for insecure horses. She is also a wonderful ground person with young or difficult horses to make Juliane‘s job safer.

PARTNERS

Bates Saddles

Juliane earned her USDF medals in Bates saddles, and has been utilizing their comfort and support ever since. With a spooky horse particular about his saddle's fit, the Bates was the only saddle he would go in that kept his rider feeling centered and secure. Thanks to the help of Janie at Pelham Saddlery, we've fit many horses in our barn with their very own Bates!

Salamander Studios

For Amanda at Salamander Studios, photography is much more than simply capturing a pretty picture. Her goal is always to capture a moment in time that evokes a myriad of emotions. We are so grateful for her partnership, and for making our horses shine on screen! Visit salamanderstudiosllc.com to book a session with Amanda and experience the magic for yourself.
