US Grand Prix dressage rider in 2007!

Malin has been a professional trainer, coach and competitor for over
thirty years. Few can equal the accomplishments he has had in multiple
disciplines. Tim and his students have had great success at both
Hunter/Jumper “A” shows to the indoor circuit and at top Dressage
shows. He owned and operated the show barn Golden Mean for over 15
years and is a graduate of The University of Connecticut.
Tim

Gold, Silver and Bronze medals. Tim is successfully competing in the
Grand Prix, Grand Prix Special and Grand Prix Freestyle in the CDI***
divisions with his horse, Harmony’s Coolio. With this horse, at his
first Grand Prix, they were the FEI high scoring champions. He ranked
13th nationally at the 2007 Festival of Champions and is

Tim has been
significantly influenced by Olympian Ashley Holzer who coached him
exclusively for seven years. Tim

the Alexander Technique to help students overcome their challenges. He
is a positive, solution-oriented trainer who can evaluate the needs of
both the horse and rider and put together a successful combination.
Tim is available for clinics and lessons in Dressage and Jumping.
One question everyone asks: What is Golden Mean? Golden
Mean is the name I chose for my business. Golden mean refers to the
mid-point between any two extremes - a point of "balance". It is my
goal to help horses and their riders find their own personal "mean".
