Our Story

The Heart and Hooves Horsemanship program fosters a caring, supportive, and energetic atmosphere to practice natural horsemanship based on mutual respect with horses. Understanding how a horse thinks is the foundation of all-natural horsemanship and fuels a deeper level of two-way communication that can be used in any discipline. Every exercise and activity have meaning and builds a solid foundational relationship that unites horse and rider. Our program provides the building blocks necessary to gain a true partnership with meaning to both horse and human that inspires continued growth. The Heart and Hooves Program strives to expand your natural horsemanship skills while promoting confidence in participants and their equine partners equally.

Our program offers a 120 x 250 outdoor riding arena, a 50 ft. round pen, 15 outdoor private stalls, parking area, community campfire, chuck wagon (lunch is provided) for our guests and our ever-growing obstacle course. We have approximately 80 obstacles spread out over a 5-acre area; including many different types of ramps & bridges, a pyramid, tire jumps, water obstacles, horse trailers, mailbox, culverts, tarps, flags, backing obstacles, tearjerker and many more!
