Summer Lessons are a success!

Wow! What a terrific summer we have had. I've been very busy with lessons and training and I love every moment of it!

The paddock renovation is complete, as well as the fence in the front yard. The newly fenced in area there in perfect for riding. I will be putting some jumps out there in the near future!

Thank you to all of my wonderful students (and their families) for giving me the opportunity to share my knowledge with them. I am very passionate about what I do and it is very pleasing to see all of you learning so much.

Please feel free to add any comments, or ask any questions right here on my blog.

Summer Horsemanship Lessons

Summer horsemanship Lessons are in full swing!

Wow, what a response I am receiving from offering horsemanship lessons! It seems a lot of you were looking for something more than just a riding lesson. Good for you!

If the riders of today want to become responsible horse owners in the future, then they need more than just a riding lesson!

I am truly enjoying working with all of you, kids and adults. It brings me joy to see the amazement on your faces when you see how we can get the pony to move with us-no halter or lead rope required.

Thank you to those who had to suffer through the mud and the muck! Now that the paddock is completed, what a difference it makes.

• Basic ground work for the horse
• An understanding of the importance of ground work
• Leadership & Communication
• Herd behavior & Body Language

• Proper grooming techniques
• Explanations of tack and its purpose
• Tacking up

Beginner Riding includes:

Healing Shine-a MUST read

Whether you are a horse person, or not, Healing Shine, written by Michael Johnson is a must for your collection. A rodeo cowboy in Oklahoma, Michael purchased Shine on a whim. Says he can sense his greatness. He was advised NOT to buy the gelding for various reasons, and did anyway. He goes on to write about Shine's training, and this is very important according to Shine - his own training. Against his traditional cowboy thinking relatives advice, Michael continues to try and understand Shine in a very unique and somewhat foreign way. His story will make you laugh and cry. Oh, did I mention it is true?

Check out my website for a neat little story about this wonderful author.....
