Crystal Pines Performance Horses

💪🏋️‍♀️Training horses and riders is a lot like going to a personal trainer. At the start, it’s about building the basics and getting you ready for bigger goals. If you stop showing up, you’ll miss the chance to see real results. The more consistent you are, the tougher the sessions get — and before you know it, six weeks or six months down the track, you’ll notice the difference. Progress comes from showing up and doing the work.
And while you’re at it don’t forget to enjoy the journey it’s a long one! 💪

🔥It’s been a hot minute since I have broken one in, but when they are this sweet, I’m more than happy to enjoying the process for myself.
This is ride 6th and 4th ride the arena. If they were all this quiet we would all be horse breakers.

🎠The first horse I broke in as a youth was by Pepped Up Spin. I have had a number of them in for training over the years all with great temperaments and balanced to ride.
Unfortunately the Sire is now deceased

Note: This is not a service I offer how ever I know a number of reputable beakers to refer you to.

I can't stress this enough; Preconceived ideas can be a killer, these animals are not robots, take the time to work with them not against them!

"Ride the horse you’re on, not the horse you think you are on.”

It’s so easy to get stuck in the idea of how a ride should feel, or how we want our horse to go. But that’s not always the horse that shows up underneath us that day.

Maybe they’re a little tighter than usual. Maybe they’re more distracted, more tired, or more switched on. And if we don’t stop and really feel into that — we can miss the opportunity to truly show up for our horse.

You’ve got to ride this horse. Not yesterday’s version. Not the one you had in your head. Just the one you’ve got right now.

And when you do that — when you stop pushing for what it should be, and start working with what is — that’s when you can build more trust.

Be present. Let go of the picture. Ride the horse that’s under you, and meet them where they are each day.
