Meet the Trainer
Owner, manager, and head trainer, Brie Seltser put her feet in the stirrups at age six in Peabody, Massachusetts. She found her passion when she began competing in the hunter circuits and became a member of the United States Pony Club. At age twelve Brie qualified for USPC National Championship Games and at age fourteen qualified for USPC National Championship Polocrosse. She competed in HITS and several other show circuits in Florida, Massachusetts, and Georgia. Brie has competed at the USDF Regional Championships in Wellington and Ocala, FL and Conyers, GA finishing in the ribbons every year. In 2017, Brie and her friesian, Hylke Van De Klei, qualified for U.S Dressage finals and finished in the top 10 of their class. While moving up a level, they proceeded to finals again the following year. In 2021, she was Champion in her Regional Championship Musical Freestyle class with friesian stallion Thiadrik Fan Matthy’s Meadow (owned by Paul Woods and Marty Grahek), qualifying her to compete at the U.S Dressage Finals once again. In the same year, Brie coached and trained her former friesian partner, Hylke, and his current young rider for the same journey. They proceeded to win their Junior Championship class at Regionals and finished 3rd in their Musical Freestyle Championship class. As they continued their training under Brie, they went on to Dressage Finals 2021 finishing as Reserved Champion in the junior division. In 2022 Brie, yet again, brought home the blue in their division at USDF Regionals and will head back to US Dressage finals in Kentucky along side her student who was Reserved Champion in 2nd level freestyle and 4th at 1st level freestyle with a wildcard score.
Brie continues her journey to achieve her gold medal competing both personal and client horses. Her goal is to bring her young horses to the Grand Prix ring shining in her true passion of musical freestyles where her artistic and creative eye can paint a master piece in the arena. Brie orchestrates her own music for her freestyles bringing an avant-garde perspective into the classical art of freestyles.
Along with her creativity, Brie brings out her bold side when she ventures into the cross country field. Her love for eventing remains strong even while dancing the freestyles. Qualifying many young horses for American Eventing Championships only drives her heart more in the dressage arena. “Dressage is the foundation, it is what sets your score in eventing. Great dressage only makes for better jumping.” Brie says. Her theory continues to prove her right finishing on her clean and clear scores with many of her client and personal horses. In 2021, she coached her junior rider through AEC’s where they finished 16th out of large division of 50 riders.
Brie resides on her equestrian facility in Ocala, FL. with her husband, Jimmy Haskins, nine rescue dogs, two rescue cats, and veiled chameleon. Her and her husband’s love for animals go beyond the moon. “It’s a life style not a job. Not just for me but my husband as well. Every animal on this farm is family. Dogs, cats, lizards, client horses or personal horses. When they’re here, they’re family.”
