Molly combines her passion for the sport with an intuitive understanding of horse and rider dynamics to foster growth and success.
As a young profesional in the dressage world, I am actively looking to work with other horses and riders who are interested in gaining confidence and developing life-long horsemanship skills, all while I pursue my dreams of riding on the international stage. I invite you to explore this site to learn more about me, and how I can help you and your horse reach the next level!
As a proud native of Charlotte, North Carolina, I am on a passionate mission to represent my country as one of the top dressage riders in the United States.
From a young age, I discovered my love for horses and the art of dressage. My journey has been fueled by unwavering dedication, countless hours of training, and a deep desire to continually improve. I believe that every ride is an opportunity to connect with my horse and showcase the hard work we put in together.
What truly drives me is my passion for excellence in this sport. I strive not just to compete, but to embody the spirit of dressage—grace, precision, and harmony. Despite my ambitions, I always aim to stay humble and grounded, cherishing the relationships I’ve built within the equestrian community.
I invite you to join me on this exciting journey as I work toward my goals and represent the United States in the world of dressage. Thank you for your support, and I can’t wait to share my experiences with you! – Molly
I take pride in helping riders and horses of all levels develop their skills, emphasizing the importance of good horsemanship and correct basics while ensuring every horse is treated with care and compassion.
Although no two horses are alike, I tend to select my horses based on their unique personality, temperament, and willingness to learn (and have fun!)
Not only does Molly have a natural gift and talent with horses that started at a young age, but she is a beautiful rider that has shown an unsurpassed dedication to advancing her own riding and training. Beyond that, she truly cares for her horses in training as she cares for her very own ‑ their happiness, health and soundness is her top priority. As a rider, I appreciate her honesty and the fact that she does not cut any corners – insisting on always doing what is correct – verses what simply looks good. Since 2010, she has coached me on 3 very different horses through multiple levels – always bringing a positive attitude and a belief in me and my skills that give me the confidence to ride to the best of my ability. I feel fortunate to call Molly not only a friend, but an asset to the equestrian community here in Charlotte.
Molly is an incredible horsewoman who has a unique ability to connect with both her horses and riders. Her empathetic approach brings out the best in everyone, and her skill in pivoting ensures that the horse’s best interests are always prioritized. She is a rare trainer who makes the journey fun while helping a diverse range of horses and riders reach their full potential.
My sweet horse didn’t always present “sweet.” She is high spirited, athletic and slow to emotionally mature. We cycled through several training situations and were at our wits end…and then we found Molly. Molly took a look at my horse with fresh eyes, from a place of compassion and, importantly, from the horse’s perspective. She was fair, yet asked more in every situation. In two short years she transformed my mare from a bucking, unpredictable, inverted misery to a balanced third-level happy horse. And she brought me along too, letting me know, with great honesty and kindness, when I needed to push a bit more. Our partnership is invaluable. Molly has been a gift to me….and a gift for Razz.
Bringing years of experience and exposure to the very best in training, competition, and education, Molly Paris offers personalized hands-on services that helps both horse and rider develop the skills and confidence needed for a lifetime of success.
Based in Charlotte, NC, and Wellington, FL, Molly is a professional dressage rider whose approach emphasizes horsemanship and mastering the basics, ensuring every horse is treated with the utmost respect and care.
