Riding Lessons

My interest for equitation began at a young age and started with studies then evolved to western pleasure and play days. I have since gained 10 years of equine experience. Holding titles of 2013 Miss Rodeo of the Ozarks and 2015 Miss Rodeo Arkansas has expanded my knowledge and experience in the rodeo and equine industries. My experience ranges from barrel racing and pole bending to working for a cutting a horse trainer. I have ridden with trainers like Bronc Rumford, Devin Warren and Cara & Scott Brewer. I constantly work to learn and implement new training techniques. I will continue attending clinics and seminars to provide the best care and attention our clients, both two legged and four.  I have a passion for teaching children and keeping the western way of life alive.

 

Our rates are more than affordable for the simple reason of teaching proper horse care and handling from the ground up. I know first-hand what it feels like to be limited on equine involvement due to finances so I want to make it affordable to learn! The first session will consist of introduction to how to communicate with the horse and getting comfortable then start with bareback riding to learn about how the horse moves and progress to saddle. I believe in the importance of understanding horses, handling and anatomy before advancing.
