About Jane E. Steiner

Jane E. Steiner (“Janie”) brings a lifetime of unparalleled equestrian experience to Mountain View Farm. Born and raised in Great Britain, she began riding as soon as she could sit a pony, training under elite instructors in Europe and earning her stripes in the Vine & Craven Pony Club. Her career spans continents and disciplines—from show hunters, 3-day eventing, and steeplechase racing to galloping million-dollar racehorses for legends like Wayne Lukas and Godolphin. A sought-after stunt rider, Jane’s Hollywood credits include CSI, Public Enemies, and MTV’s Rob & Big, where she taught Rob Dyrdek to ride. Blending grit, grace, and a circus performer’s flair, Jane is as versatile as she is skilled.
