Lori riding Breezy
My name is Lori Aman and I am the DHF Office Manager and Bookkeeper.
My professional bookkeeping experience involves accounting, 12 years of corporate cash management and 17 years as a trader and manager of staff in a Treasury Department. I also have some credit and collections experience.
Personally, I have ridden for most of my life (Quarter Horse, a little jumping, a little dressage) and was fortunate to find DHF in July of 2007 and start lessons with Jen. In July of 2008 I bought Jen’s mare, Nachtwind DHF (Breezy) and began another dream come true, learning to ride an FEI horse. When she had a career-ending injury in 2013, Jen had a three-year-old, Wildorado's Zachary, in training she said would be perfect for me. As usual when pairing horses and riders, she was right. When Zack died suddenly from colic, Jen had another perfect horse waiting for me, a 6 year old Hanoverian gelding named Rockin' Rousseau. Rocky has lovely gaits and is a sweetheart, but he and I had some problems, so Jen found me Arnie, a Halflinger gelding who is wonderful and a lot of fun for me.
Since I've been at DHF, I have had the opportunity to participate in clinic lessons with Mary Wanless, Heather Blitz, Dr. Gerd Heuschmann and David de Wispeleare and of course many, many lessons with Jen and other DHF Instructors.
In my various positions, I am thrilled to be able to contribute to the success of Dancing Horse Farm, as I believe wholeheartedly in its mission and "Dare to Dream."

Hi, I'm Lynda Sappington DHF's Webmistress,Marketing Director, Resident Artist and Domestic Engineer. I'm a professional sculptor, producing bronze horses, domestic animals, wildlife, some people, lots of trophies in bronze and resin, and one (so far!) life-size bronze of a 17 hand Friesian stallion. I'm also a painter of textural acrylics (palette knife work) - florals, interesting scenery, horses, cats, etc. I've sold some pieces and done a few commissions so far. It's a lot of fun to play with color! You can see my work in the cabin at the farm or on my website, www.LyndaSappington.com
I live on 8 acres just 3/10's of a mile from DHF with my dear husband of 50+ years, John, two house cats (Cricket and Jared) and a fluffy white Havanese dog named Toby. My sweet horse, "El Paso Aricos" (AKA "Ricos") is half-Andalusian/half-Appendix Quarter Horse (when you meet him, ask him to smile). He's my retired dressage horse (in 2021, he's 26). Ricos and I had fun showing dressage for a few years, then he helped Jen earn half of her points toward her Silver Medal. Did I mention he's not only a sweetheart but talented? He is!
Back problems led to back surgery which means I was off of Ricos for 4-5 years. Now he's thoroughly retired and I'm riding an adorable and talented Halflinger pony belonging to one of our boarders.

The solid foundation of this busy farm is Jen's husband, Lenny. An aerospace engineer (a real-life rocket scientist) by trade, he enjoys constantly improving the farm. He is always on the lookout for something to invent, design or build, including building potato guns and cannons. When he finds free time (free time seems be lost and in need of being found), he also loves to play disc golf and fly his fleet of radio-controlled airplanes. He also finds great joy in doing anything that involves his big toy---the tractor. Even though when he and Jen married in 2000, he had no horse exposure at all, he has developed a keen eye and become a great ground coach for her over the years. He also excels in his role as the best horse show husband on the planet.
