I found a trainer that shares our belief in force free training, mutual respect and connection… after only a few visits we have found a whole new level of joy! And [have] learned a whole new level of horsemanship!

I’ve always had a dream of raising my own baby horse, but never believed it would be possible as I lack the experience and knowledge- after a couple lessons not only did I believe I had the capability, but had this kindled wonderment for all the possibilities that I might explore. This place was my aha moment!
