Pam Fisher

Pam
A lifelong horsewoman, Pam Fisher started showing as a teenager and became an international advanced three-day eventing competitor with many titles as well as a successful horse trainer.
Fisher and her horse Lancelet were long listed for the 1996 Summer Olympics in three-day eventing. In 2009 Fisher was again long listed for the U.S. Equestrian team on her stallion, Sea Lion.
Fisher graduated from Alfred University with a BA in Animal Behavior and was on the College Equestrian Hunter Jumper Team. After college, Fisher trained with the best in the world, including Jack Legoff (Gold Medal winning U.S.E.T. coach), Bruce Davidson (2-time World Champion Event Rider), Eicke von Veltheim (German Dressage Olympian), Belinda Narin (US Dressage Olympian), Carol Thompson and Michael Matz (Olympic Show Jumpers), Captain Mark Phillips (U.S.E.T. Eventing Coach), Charlotte Bredahl (Dressage Olympian), and Kristin Hardin (Show Jumping Grand Prix rider).
For several years Fisher assisted trainer Taylor Jackson teaching racehorses to jump for steeplechase and timber races. During this time she exercised race horses at the Fairhill Training Center in Maryland in the mornings and jumped in the afternoons. Taylor worked for Frank Whitely (Ruffian’s trainer) and also was Jack LeGoff’s first stable manager at the USET. Taylor taught Fisher a tremendous amount about good horsemanship.
Fisher owned and operated her own horse facility in Colorado for 25 years, training horses for many equestrian disciplines as well as providing rehabilitation therapy for injured horses.  In 2013, Fisher finished her Naturopathic Medicine training in order to be certified to treat all creatures large and small.
Fisher is dedicated to the natural care, training and breeding of international quality sport horses.
       Fisher was interviewed on Wisdom of the Ages podcast in 2021.
