Annette Rosemann
Passionate about horses and teaching, Annette has worked locally and on the winter circuit in Florida for many years focusing primarily on dressage and eventing. Enthusiastic and outgoing, Annette’s charm helps Butler students feel right at home and her dedication to the basics of riding helps to create excellent riders.
Her biggest passion is riding and teaching dressage, so adult riders will love the in-depth explanations of how and why things work the way that they do. Whether you have never ridden a horse or you can jump a three and half foot course, her insightful teaching methods will make you feel like every lessons was a success and leave you wanting more
Nicki Parnell was introduced to vaulting at the relatively late age of 21 when she joined Great Falls Vaulters. After competing for only 3 months (as a “trot kid”), she was hooked on vaulting! While continuing to compete at the” Copper” level, Nicki has enjoyed coaching competitive Novice, Trot and Para-vaulters as well as recreational vaulters of all ages – from tiny tots to their mothers. She loves to emphasize harmony with the horse and to find ways to make vaulting fun!
In addition to her vaulting experience, Nicki has gained valuable experience as a full-time working student as well as a therapeutic riding instructor. An avid rider and traveler in her spare time, she graduated from Hood College in May 2010, and is currently working as a Graduate Assistant and applying to veterinary school.
