Horseback Riding in Sherwood, Oregon (Washington County)

I offer instruction in classical dressage-based horsemanship for any level of rider. My methods are based on 'Old World' military horsemanship that takes the techniques of training horses for jousting, mounted archery, mounted combat, etc. and adapts them to practical horsemanship. These methods are rooted in centuries of study in the nature and biomechanical interplay between horse and rider, handed down from master to student, throughout most of recorded history. No force or coercion is used in this style of training, but rather the goal is trust and forming a partnership, conditioning and making the horse supple, with the goal of improving their ability to carry the rider, athletically, for many happy years. If this sounds like the better aspects of what is now called "Natural Horsemanship, well the classical masters had a name for it, they called it "Horsemanship". :)

If this style of horsemanship sounds like something you would be interested in learning more about, I invite you to come out, meet me and my lesson horses, and let's discuss your horsemanship goals and how I might help you achieve them. Feel free to contact me at with any questions you might have.... See More
