Meet Pam Bauer – Owner & Trainer at German Magic Farm

Pam Bauer, owner and resident trainer at German Magic Farm, brings over 32 years of international riding and teaching experience to her training program. Her journey has taken her through Germany, Austria, Japan, and now the United States, where she shares her deep knowledge and passion for horses with riders of all levels.

Pam began her teaching career in Germany, where she earned her official training license and judging credentials—up to Level 3 in dressage and 1.30m in jumping. She taught both disciplines to riders and horses of all ages and skill levels, and during her 15 years of teaching there, she earned her Silver Medal and coached the Bavarian Pony Team to multiple national championship victories.

Following her success in Germany, Pam spent a year training and teaching in Austria before heading to Japan. There, she competed in dressage up to the FEI 5th level and rode for Olympic dressage rider Mieko Yagi. She served as Chief Instructor at the prestigious Tokyo Riding Club, where she trained horses and students all the way to Grand Prix level. In addition to her competitive and training work, Pam also volunteered at a hypotherapie facility (similar to USA handicapped riding), offering therapeutic riding support for individuals with disabilities.

Now based in the U.S., Pam runs her own training business, dividing her time between her home base at German Magic Farm, nearby farms, and the many horse shows she attends with her students and training horses.

Pam specializes in building strong partnerships between horse and rider. She emphasizes correct and effective body positioning and aids in both dressage and jumping disciplines, helping her students become confident, capable riders.

With her diverse international background, years of professional experience, and ability to connect with horses and riders of all types, Pam creates a supportive, relaxed, and fun learning environment for everyone at German Magic Farm.
