BIT-BY-BIT EQUESTRIAN CENTER
About Our Horse Farm
OUR PHILOSOPHY
It is our belief that being an equestrian
promotes life skills such as responsibility
and integrity. We empower riders to improve
their horses' abilities and achieve harmony
with their mount. Building their technical
skills and confidence, will enable both the
horse and rider to achieve in schooling or
open competition.
Melissa has always been an equine enthusiast. As a child she
competed in 4-H and Penn Jersey in hunters. Melissa graduated
from IUP with a B.S. in Education and was a member of their
intercollegiate riding team.
Currently, Melissa competes in the ESDCTA and the USDF and
has earned many individual and team championship awards
encluding some highlights:
- Bronze Medal from United States dressage
Federation
- Silver Medal and Bronze Medal form Eastern
States Dressage and Combined Training
Association
- Third Level Championships ESDCTA 4th Place,
2008
- Second Level Champion ESDCTA, 2007
- Second Level Champion at Bucks County Horse
Park, 2006
In addition, she attended the "L" Dressage Judge training
program conducted by the USDF in 2008 and carries a Level II
American Riding Instructors Association Certification in
Dressage and Hunt Seat since 2001.
Melissa and her horses, Renodje and Heart's Journey, have been
training with Gabriel and Suzanne Armando.
Her philosophy of partnership with the horse is echoed in some
of her students achievements. From 2005, to 2008, nine of her
students earned year end awards at the Bucks County Horse
Park. In 2007, seven students earned ESDCTA year end awards
and three the special distinction of their Bronze Medal. At the 2008
ESDCTA Championships four students placed in the top six.
