A huge congratulations to our client Sally Bisaccio on the purchase of Fiona! I truly couldn’t imagine a more deserving person for this incredible horse.
There is something incredibly special about watching a horse you’ve poured so much into begin a new chapter with someone you’ve had the privilege of teaching for years.

Now I get to watch their partnership unfold, and I couldn’t be more excited for what lies ahead. Congratulations, Sally!

Meet Ariana & Wild Heart!

We’re so excited to welcome Ariana to the Liberty Festival and introduce something NEW to the International Liberty Horse Association — Bridleless Dressage!

Known for her calm, patient, and empathetic approach, Ariana is passionate about helping horses and humans develop deeper communication, trust, and harmony. Her work focuses on Groundwork, Liberty, and Dressage, with an emphasis on understanding things from the horse’s perspective.

Today, Ariana is riding her Mustang, Wild Heart, whom she adopted in 2017 through the Extreme Mustang Makeover. Together, they were awarded Reserve Champion, and their accomplishments have continued to grow. In 2025, Wild Heart became the National Dressage Pony Cup Mustang Champion, earned two USDF All-Breeds Awards for the Mustang breed, and earned two ILHA Ba****ck & Bridleless Champion titles.

Ariana is also a USDF Silver Medalist and an ILHA Liberty Horse Champion with her other mare, Mermaid. She has shared her knowledge as a clinician at events including the Liberty Festival, Midwest Horse Fair, and Equine Affaire.

Her approach is rooted in helping horses feel safe, relaxed, balanced, and confident — while helping their humans develop the awareness and skills to communicate with them in a compassionate and respectful way.

And this year, we’re excited to bring that philosophy into something new for ILHA with our Bridleless Dressage class!

📅 Saturday, October 10
⏰ 10:15 AM – 10:45 AM

Come watch Ariana and Wild Heart demonstrate the connection, balance, communication, and partnership that make bridleless dressage so special.

Be sure to add it to your Liberty Festival schedule and come check it out!

Getting ready for the Liberty Festival with Ellie Mae has pushed me in ways I didn’t expect…Jumping ba****ck, riding bridleless, doing things that scare me a little, and chasing a goal that means more to me than I can put into words. International Liberty Horse Association
