The Purpose of My Training is to Help The Rider Communicate With Their Horse Kindly and Effectively, To Teach the Horse How to Carry the Rider With the Lightest Possible Aids Producing Soundness and Suppleness. To Bring Out the Very Best of Both Horse and Rider Creating Beauty and Joy.

I am passionate about horses!! I love everything about them. My relationship with my horses and students fills my spirit with joy. I want to share the joy and the knowledge I have to help you and your horse form a bond to help you reach your goals. I listen to the horse and I listen to the rider and together we collaborate and develop a relationship of trust and harmony, we work on our skills, we develop exercises to forward the training and communication and we have fun at the same time.

I have found that when you understand the horse you can help him relax and enjoy his work. When you understand yourself and how you react to the horse, you can learn to communicate in an effective way to develop an understanding and a winning partnership.
