After so many amazing years, it is time for a new chapter for Kurt and I. Starting in April I will be on to a new venture.
Unfortunately that does mean we are closing our doors to lessons and boarders.
Thank you to everyone for all the support, so many great lessons taught with incredible lesson horses. It was a fun journey but I look foward to the next chapter π
2 spots left, this is going to be a fun weekend of learning!!
Possibility to lease a lesson horse for an additional cost
Can't wait for this clinic, possibility to potentially use a lesson horse for an extra cost.
Excellent learning opportunity for anyone!!
Excellent read!!

Have fun playing and good luck these aren't easy!!
And that's a wrap..... what a fantastic and incredibly busy year we have had. So many lessons, new boarded horses, happy training horses/clients, amazing clinic with insights and a successful year coaching 2 4H clubs.
While I will be taking a step back for a bit to regroup, I can't say enough thank yous to everyone who supports and believes in me and my program π
Also to Kurt Baldwin none of this is possible without him!!
We have some new ears around here..... looking foward to getting this little lady ready for the lesson program
These two were absolute unicorns π¦π¦this lesson season...... so much love for both these boys π
Fun week! Everyone did so well but Bella and Crazy Horse defintely stole the show and got the most points in our little competition π
All obstacles are up in the field should be some fun lessons this week learning how to work through them on the ground and progress to riding!
Drop in also available to use them $10 per horse. Must be scheduled with me first to make sure it doesn't clash with a lesson π
Spot now taken
One time lesson spot available for 10am Saturday ( tomorrow) if anyone would like it π
All the lesson horses got some bathing and TLC this weekend and look absolutely fantastic now!
Thank you to all the riders and volunteers who did this for them π
Mother Nature Please Stop, We Would All Like To Ride As Much As Possible This Summer
With summer vacation coming up it will open up one or two more lesson spots please send me a message if you wish to book in.
Also any clients who are wishing to change ride times and ride earlier in the day please message me so we can change the schedule π
Lesson now filled
Have a rare lesson spot open tomorrow( saturday) from 11 to 12 if anyone wants a lesson π
Super proud of Monster and his rider this weekend at 4HOP. This rider had unfortunately found herself in need to lease a horse for the weekend. Having only ridden him ONCE before the show they managed to pull off a 6th, 4th and two 2nd places! Absolutely incredible riding for a horse who has never shown before with a rider that didn't know him at all.
So so proud of both of them and happy to own and raise horses who try their best at anything.
We had OCD Earthworx out this weekend to do rock removal from the arena.
So so so impressed, arena is looking amazing.
Check out the before and after photos π
He's Back!! I know there are lots of clients excited to spend time with this great guy again!
Huge thank you to Beej Logan and Anna for letting us spend the summer with Smoke again π
Only one riding spot left in this clinic.
Chris will be doing a demo May 21st which is a fantastic opportunity for anyone wanting to audit the clinic.
Please message to book either a riding spot or auditing spaces.
After only 3 practice rounds these girls rocked a mock drill practice.
Having so much fun in our winter lessons this year and all the winter class riders have made massive improvements.
Huge thank you to the local arena for more than accommodating us π
Can't wait to have this fabulous clinician back in Alberta
Highly recommend any of my clients try to attend this clinic π
Didn't get a chance to get many pictures but the kids sure had fun at camp today! Timber River Station thank you for having us.
Amazing response, this camp is now full. Working on a second date will update tomorrow π
Kids camp
Thursday February 24th 10 -2 held at Timber River Station.
As always a day of games and fun.
Bring your own horse or use one of ours.
Riders will need to bring their own lunch
Minimum age requirement 5 years old.
Cost $50
Please message or text 4034019416 to book
100% agree with this! Horses have a lot to offer. I am not always just teaching someone to ride but often giving them tools to deal with situations. Love how our horses can help in more ways than one π
So now the deep freeze and Christmas are over I do have the opportunity to rent some arena space for the rest of winter, a little bit east of Sundre. Arena fee will be $10 per rider and then for use of horse I would charge $5 which basically covers my fuel to haul them there. Prices for lessons would then be as follows
1 hour private $$55
1/2 hour private $35
1 hour group $ 45
1/2 hour group $30
If I have clients interested can you please message me. If there was enough interest in holding bigger group lessons( would need 4 riders) then I would waive the additional $5 for hauling per person π
