Jen and Saddle Up

Hi – I’m Jen Williams of Saddle Up Horse Training. At Saddle Up, I teach several disciplines of horseback riding, including English Pleasure, Dressage, Western Pleasure, and Reining. Ialso break young horses to ride, train horses in English and Western Pleasure, Dressage, andReining. I also have fun chasing cows and cutting (or really any type of riding) when thechance pops up. I grew up in a family of educators, but I have a degree in Engineering from the University of Wisconsin Madison. I love the area, and I always knew that I would settle here, even when I
was working for several years with some national level trainers out on the west coast of Oregon. I now live in Oregon, WI, with my husband, Scot, and my two boys, Calvin and Jack. If you
add the herd of horses and some new barn cats, it seems to make for a big family (don’t forget the chickens).  I try to have lots of hobbies around for when I’m not riding. I wouldn’t call the kids a hobby, but they do take up the majority of my non-horse time. When I do have some free time, I enjoy tennis, biking, skiing, gardening, quilting, camping, knitting and much more – I like to keep busy. I also march for the UW-Madison Alumni band in the trombone ranks every year.
