How the heck did this happen 🫣
Check out the year embroidered on this prize blanket from a horse show! How was that 21 years ago?? 😱

I remember this horse show, we were just kids.. I was on my pony, Blue, and my twin sister was on her mare, Indy. I believe she actually won this high-point blanket, but she isn’t in to horses anymore so it’s mine now.

First horse show of the season at Pacific Equine Sport Indoor Series 🏆
Angel and I competed in the 1.0m and our first ever 1.10m classes. There were many wins and learnings and new experiences. It was a fantastic weekend overall, and we are excited to be back in the ring after many years. Big thank you to my team for keeping me fed, calm, and focused through it all. And to the friends who came to watch us go.

I am both humbled and thrilled to accept the Canadian Choice Award for Excellence in Equestrian Facilities on behalf of Full Motion Advantage - Equine for the second year in a row. It is an honor to be continually recognized for the hard work and dedication put into creating a space that supports the well-being of both horses and riders, and it fills me with immense pride.

This award is not only a reflection of our commitment to excellence but also a testament to the amazing team that works alongside me every day. Every individual plays a crucial role in making our facility a true home for equestrian excellence. This recognition will inspire us to continue raising the standards of care, training, and service for years to come.

I am incredibly grateful to the Canadian Choice Awards for acknowledging the impact of equestrian facilities in this way, and we see this as a milestone in our ongoing pursuit of quality and innovation in the industry. This award reinforces our mission to provide a top-tier environment where both horses and riders can reach their fullest potential.

Well our 2024 training season is officially done 🐴
Our last student, Comet, went home today to conclude our outdoor training. Just in time for the cold weather to stay!! ☃️

I’d like to extend a big giant THANK YOU to everyone who was part of our program this year, and past years. It is so rewarding for me to help everyone in their horsemanship goals. This year was extremely fulfilling and jam packed full of awesome projects and clients. Our books were filled throughout the entire season and I cannot express how grateful I am for all of you.

We are currently booking for the 2025 season, starting in March.

Food is a powerful motivator. Anybody that has ridden here knows that 32 is an opinionated mare and she has some strong feelings about going in the barn. At one point she refused to go in there while sedated. And so, it was time for me to make an effort to change this behaviour. Over the winter I have been working on changing her mind about going inside without forcing her, without locking her up, but with R+. I have been putting her grain closer to the barn each day, and building her threshold to be near it. Then I started putting it just inside, and a little further each time without pushing her over her tolerance. Well today we hit our goal of going inside the barn as her own choice while allowing her to make the decision if she wants to remain in there or not. She went back and forth inside as she was comfortable but she always went back in and did finish all of her grain. #goals #goalachieved #thoroughbred #thoroughbredhorse #moodymare #bossmare #motivation #foodmotivated #positivereinforcementtraining #positivereinforcement #positivemindset #horsetraining #horsetrainer #horsetrainermoments #bigdeal

Decided to try something new this winter and joined the Gymkhana Club 🏇 We are having a blast and it’s a great way to keep some fitness through the winter. This sport is new to both me and 32, but she is catching on to the game 🏆

Our Story

I have lived with horses my entire life. There are a part of who I am and life just isn’t the same without them. As I am sure many of you know all too well what I am talking about. We are dedicated to our sport with the drive to always be better for our equine partner. Whether it be for competition or just to go out and enjoy riding. Here you will find a positive community all with the same goal in mind. Helping you enjoy your time with your horse.

Through my training program horses will gain confidence and strength. I truly communicate with these horses in a way that they understand so when the time comes for them to go home, the truly know what is expected of them. Understanding and communication is a big piece of the partnership. Of course you want to succeed with your horse, that is why I include lessons as part of your training experience. So you can go home and also understand the how’s and why’s of the process. The type of training I do ranges from c**t starting, western and english, to jumping training, to kid proofing, confidence building and problem solving. Additionally, I am now including rehabilitation in my program.

Coaching is one of my favorite things. I love seeing the immediate improvement in riders when I explain that one thing missing from the overall picture. Those ah-ha! moments are so rewarding. I am a CHA Certified riding coach with Western level 2, and English level 3 qualifications. Teaching from ages 5 to 65, and anywhere from your first time being on a horse, to competition level. I have a weekly lesson program with the option to use my horse or yours at our beautiful outdoor facility. I also coach within a few of the local riding clubs. You will likely see me at the local horse shows with some my students cheering them on, helping them remember their patterns, or taking videos. The lesson horses in our program are calm, gentle and safe. Everyone loves my main guy, Harley, an OTTB with an old soul, gentle eye and the best kid mode.

We have a beautiful private facility a few minutes west of Busby, AB. With a large outdoor sand arena, many colorful jumps and training obstacles, a 60’ roundpen and a new 6 stall barn. A couple times throughout the year I will be hosting clinics at home, and am always accepting training horses.
