Shelley R. Rosenberg is an accomplished horsewoman, trainer, rider, artist, teacher, and author of My Horses, My Healers, about healing from childhood sexual abuse with the help of her horses.
Rosenberg's current projects include facilitating workshops at the Epona International Center for Equine Experiential Learning including a new workshop for survivors of trauma; developing Epona's stallion training program; sharing her experience and giving back by reading from her book and speaking at sexual trauma groups and advocacy centers around the country. As Epona's ranch manager, Rosenberg is at the forefront of caring for and learning from our horse colleagues as well as co-creating and facilitating workshops in collaboration with director Linda Kohanov and other Epona instructors. Rosenberg's skills with horses and humans help people develop awareness and authenticity within themselves and in their relationships with others.

Riding since the age of 12, she has over 30 years of experience training horses, teaching riders in western, jumping, dressage, hunter, and driving horses. Rosenberg's experience with horse breeds spans from Arabians to Haflingers, Warmbloods, rescued Mustangs, and horses recovering from abuse that require rehabilitation. In her long career she has successfully competed for the long-list on the U.S. Olympic equestrian team; co-created and run (with Barbara Rector) a therapeutic riding program for adolescents at Sierra Tucson; and conducted Dressage clinics. Rosenberg was president of the Tucson Dressage Club, and for 18 years ran her own Dressage Center in Oro Valley.
