"I had the privilege of riding with Geoff Teall for 2 years as a junior and working student. In that time he took me from passenger, to horseman. Not only did he teach me how to create impulsion, maintain perfect contact, and ride young horses; he taught me what it meant to be a true partner to a horse. Geoff taught me to always put the horse's needs first. He preaches and lives passion for the sport means passion for the horse. I have many things for which to thank Geoff. Mostly I am thankful for the lessons he gave me on life. It was through him I learned persistence, humility, respect, and how to truly listen. Montoga made me the person and horseman I am today, for that I will forever be grateful." - Sarah Hibel

"When our daughter wanted to train in Wellington we were fortunate enough to have been steered in the direction of Geoff Teall and Montoga, Inc. Having little prior experience showing at the "AA" level, her first year at Montoga she qualified for the THIS Medal placing 5th, qualified for the USEF Medal and Maclay Regional all three years, and she also qualified for the GMEE class in '09 and '10. Through her training with Geoff and Chris, to the excellent way Montoga is managed, to her experience with the many wonderful Montoga staff and clients, she had the best three years of her life, and we will be forever grateful for their dedication to our daughter's successful and positive experience." - Kim Levine
