My goal in training horses is to give a young horse the best chance at a good life and a career. I believe that having a strong, positive start in training from day one can play a major role in the way a horse responds to training later on. My training program is a combination of methods,which have been inspired by trainers such as Buck Brennaman, Tom Dorrance and many others that use a natural ho
rsemanship approach. It is based on understanding the way a horse's mind works and how best to communicate with each horse as an individual, to effectively engage both mind and body. This makes training much more effective for me and the horse. I have loved horses since I was a child and have been fortunate enough to spend the last 20 plus years being involved with all aspects of horses, in many disciplines. My experience ranges from reining, cutting and roping to polo, jumpers, dressage and anything in between. I have found that, no matter what discipline the horse is destined for, the process for starting them is essentially the same. The horses that prosper, have the most longevity in their sport and the most willing to work have had the best possible start early on in life. Good discipline and solid handling are needed to prepare your horse for any type of riding. I specialize in:
-starting under saddle (roping prospects, polo prospects, etc.)
-retraining problem horses
-groundwork (leading, trailer loading, standing while mounting etc.)
-correcting bad behavior (barn sour, biting, kicking, bucking, etc)
Full training is available. Other services:
