Semi-retired from the horse business, I am available in a limited capacity for lessons for youth, young adults, and amateur adult riders. Please note, I won't start anyone younger than 7 years, and youth between the ages of 7 and 10 will be tested in an initial lesson/consultation to determine capability. Also note, riders must have their own horse that they feel comfortable upon.

I have a degree in horse ranch management and a Bachelors of Science in Animal Science with a concentration in Horse Science. I specifically studied horse training and am a former horse trainer who showed at the Intercollegiate level as well as Western Pleasure for AQHA. I'm no longer showing in the arena and if you're interested in showing, I would recommend another trainer who is still active within the industry.

These days, I'm more focused on providing basic horsemanship under saddle, and riders can be either of Western or English disciplines. In fact, incorporating English riding skills into an all-around horsemanship program is great for horse and rider so if you don't have a discipline that's ok too.

If you have a horse that needs tune ups, I am also available for this service. Not all horses are suited for show and not all riders seek competition, but every horse should be well mannered and every rider should feel comfortable and confident.... See More
