Ute Tarasoff

Ute was born and raised in Baden-Wuettemberg, Germany, where she grew up on her father’s warmblood breeding farm. She is a licensed German Pferdewirtschaftsmeister, which is the highest certification attainable as a German equine professional.

With this license, she is recognized as a master trainer of both the horse and rider. She completed a total of 9 years of study and apprenticeships within different licensed horse farms and breeding stables, including a horse fitness center in Bavaria, to to study Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine to facilitate the rehab of injured horses and more importantly “retraining and repurposing” them for when their race careers had ended. To complete the master program she had an additional 2 years of study. German’s formal training program includes both apprenticeships and classroom studies..

These experiences, having trained horses from training level to the highest level of competition, training students of all ages and levels in a variety of disciplines and having embraced every opportunity to mold herself into a multi dimensional horse woman over the past 30 years Ute brings a level education, passion and perspective that is leaving it’s mark on the horse community of Wisconsin.
