Training: If you have a horse that needs to be trained to go under saddle, needs a little more finish, better manners, better headset, etc, please contact me. I use Parelli Natural horsemanship techniques and do lots of ground work to get them to accept people as leaders! I teach the horse to respect you as a rider and to engage it’s hindquarters, and to have better flexion and softness. I do round pen work, arena work, and also trail work, mostly w a western saddle. I think a horse to needs be de-sensitized to many environments. I also have a lot of experience with endurance riding, and have an excellent endurance completion record and a lot of knowledge to share about how to successfully get through an endurance ride! Endurance instruction also available. I can also help you find a horse, matching horse and rider is important. I look forward to hearing from you!... See More
