For competitive riders and everyday partners alike — any breed, any level. I’m especially passionate about supporting nervous or anxious riders.

Dressage‑based, biomechanics‑driven training that blends rider cross training principles to develop rider body awareness and build confident, connected partnerships. I’m Madison Benicky, a USDF Bronze Medalist and biomechanics‑focused trainer dedicated to helping horses and riders build confident, connected partnerships. My foundation is in classical dressage, but my approach is designed for every

rider — competitive athletes, green‑horse owners, and everyday horse lovers who want to understand their horse on a deeper level. I blend traditional training with yoga and ballet principles to develop rider body awareness, balance, and clarity. This mindful, movement‑based approach helps riders communicate more effectively, ride with softness, and feel truly in sync with their horse. I believe every horse deserves thoughtful, individualized training — regardless of breed, background, or price tag. My coaching focuses on understanding each horse’s unique personality, movement patterns, and learning style so they can shine in their own way. I approach my riders with the same mindset: we all come into the arena with different learning styles, physical abilities, and experiences, and too many riders see these as limitations. At Lumiere, I help riders recognize these elements as strengths and use them to build confident, connected partnerships. With calm guidance, clear communication, and a patient teaching style, I help riders rebuild confidence, trust their bodies, and feel safe and capable in the saddle. At Lumiere Dressage, my goal is simple: training that makes sense, builds confidence, and strengthens the bond between horse and rider. No pressure, no ego — just thoughtful, connection‑centered horsemanship for any breed, any level, any rider who wants to grow. I proudly support both everyday riders and competitive athletes, offering clear, biomechanics‑based coaching that helps every partnership reach its full potential.

Proudly offered for lease!

Pudding On Aires aka "Belle" is a 21 year old Anglo Arabian mare, standing at 16.1hh. Don't let her age fool you, Belle has a ton of miles left in the tank and loves her job. Belle is looking for her next rider to teach and bring up the levels. This mare lives to teach. She is a ride that seeks a very correct rider, but she is both patient and forgiving throughout the learning process. If you want to learn how to do things the right way, she's the girl for you. Belle has 3 lovely and easy to sit gaits. She is confirmed and proficient in 2nd Level work and has schooled elements of the upper levels. She is full of zest in her work and light off the aids. Belle is a sweetheart who is loved by all that come in contact with her. She would love a rider that has an interest in competing, but she is also available to those wanting to simply ride and learn! Best suited for the intermediate to advanced rider. Please contact with any additional questions!

Available for on-site only full or half lease.

Proudly offering ST Almonesq “Amy” for on-site only partial or full lease.

Located in Canton, GA near Northside Cherokee Hospital.

Amy is a big bodied 14.3hh, 21 year old Arabian mare with tons of miles left in the tank and wanting a consistent job. She is an extremely easy keeper and low maintenance. Amy is a fun, safe ride with smooth, easy to sit gaits. She would be perfect for someone new to Dressage that wants to explore the lower levels. Amy is forward thinking without being hot and is same horse riding out in the field as she is in the arena. Opportunity to show.

First horse show for me with GWIF and what an experience. What a team. I am constantly impressed by our riders at home, but now even more so at a show. I coached a total of 105 Dressage rides this week and every single student that stepped into that warm up arena came in with their game face and took direction beautifully. Even with show nerves there were no attitudes, not an ounce. They rode their horses the best they could in that moment. Many riding to a 6 to 10 point improvement on Day 2!! I walked away from the show completely inspired by them. I am so proud of every single one of you. Thank you for trusting me to be your coach.
(I wish I could have gotten ribbon photos with everyone, but alas, the insanity of horse shows)

Today marks the last day (for me, kids still have tomorrow left!) for Super Group! It has been such an honor watching these kids grow over the last 12 weeks. Their progress has been amazing to watch. Not one is remotely the same rider as when they started! They've continuously inspired me with their bravery, determination, and endless sense of humor. And I've easily learned as much from them as they have from me. You all make me a better teacher. Our sport has such a bright future with riders like these working their way up
