Our Skills
Our training is based on Richard Shrake resistance free horsemanship, natural horsemanship, and basic dressage. We have 15 years experience developing and refining our training and riding skills with a variety of gaited horses for show and pleasure riding.
Every time you handle or ride a horse, you are teaching them habits. It is up to you if they are good or bad habits. We help you learn good habits.
 Resistance Free Horsemanship Lessons
Our lessons will help you learn effective communication and riding skills that create trust and respect with your horse. This process takes practice and effort and is the foundation to maintaining positive experiences with your horse.
