The Heart of Riding, LLC

The Heart of Riding, LLC Nickers for Clickers Training Academy is now open for kids and adults to learn how to train horses using reward based training techniques! Join me, will you?

Wonder Whinnies registration is now for curious horse loving kids! Heart of Riding, LLC is branching out into the world of bringing horse training to the next generation! For the last 5 years, I've been dedicated to teaching folks how to be better riders. This sometimes involves not only teaching the rider, but also teaching the horse. Spring 2024 is turning out to be a big time of transition for

Heart of Riding. While I will still maintain as many of my riding clients as possible, I'm moving my base of operations away from Frederick and into my Highland location. It's smaller, and doesn't have as complete of a facility, but it's closer to home and will allow me to finally do what I have been thinking about for several years - teach kids how to train horses with reward based techniques! The location is well suited for this endeavor, and I have a great little team of people who are going to help. The horses love it, and I am hoping we can teach a new crop of horse lovers how to train horses using empathy and science, and no horse will need to experience pain or fear during training (or hopefully ever). Instead, they will look forward to the kids (and adults too) to learn and grow and have fun while we can.

Mounting should be a good experience for the horse too. 🤍
Meet Scotland 🐴 He touches the cone, gets rewarded, stands still. Clear, positive, and safe for our students. This is what we mean when we say we consider everyone at Heart of Riding — riders and horses.

Groundwork lessons? More like ground play lessons! 😜🤓At Heart of Riding, it's Exploring Equines. These lessons help students develop practical skills, better communication, and a deeper understanding of horse behavior and welfare, all while having an absolute blast. 🙃🥹
From handling and grooming to body language and positive reinforcement training, Exploring Equines lessons build the foundation for rich, meaningful horse–human relationships.
