Horses Are Our Life
Hana Poulin Dressage & Driving LLC is family owned and operated at Moonlight Equestrian Center in Center of the Universe, Epping, NH.
With over 50 years of combined experience, we’ve honed our own skills to offer excellent horse care and instruction in everything. We teach the basic skills of Dressage and Driving techniques to the advanced skills of both. And that’s for more than just our two-legged students, we also teach your horses under the saddle and in the cart.
We offer both indoor and outdoor riding rings and are surrounded by miles of beautiful trails that we enjoy with our students on their journeys through horse life.
Every instructor we have is well versed in everything horse and supportive during both the rider and horse’s paths to becoming the best they can be in Dressage and Driving.

“I definitely recommend Hana Poulin to anyone looking for a very good trainer for themselves and their horse(s). I have a rescue horse/ex-racehorse/amish owned/from auction, so you know nothing about their past. Not willing to hitch him without someone knowledgeable being there/assisting, I contacted Hana Poulin who responded right away. Hana has given me and him the chance to be a driving team. Confidence for both of us and safety for both of us. From fitting his harness, knowing I need a different cart, to how to hook him up to this cart and finally driving. Also ground work, finding the right bite for him. And I previously owned a driving Draft Horse and drove! We owe it all to Hana. Anyone with questions on Hana's ability can contact me with any questions or information, I will gladly provide how it helped me and my horse.”
