🌟 After much reflection, I have decided to return to my roots as an amateur rider. This change means I can no longer provide lessons under our current competition rules. 😢
To those who have shared this journey with me, and those who have experienced the joy of riding my cherished Boss, it has been a true honor. Wishing you all the best on your future paths! 😊

Much Love
Rachel

Here's our champion Boss and Becca winning a gorgeous buckle, garland and trophy in the Green rider 2 go round at the recent Reining Nationals in Hawera.
Becca has been working with Boss throughout the year and they formed a great connection. They took out 3 wins and put down some great runs, I'm so proud of Becca and of course our special boy Boss who is available for lessons.
From the absolute beginner to those with some experience, we can help improve your confidence and teach you more about western riding.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch to book your lesson now 😊

Your mindset is the backstage of your being, the backstage of your performance . That is the place which will define if we’ll make it or brake it. The journey doesn’t start when you get on your horse and start riding, the journey starts when you wake up in the morning. People often think that the competitive environment is at the horse show, but guess what - the competitive environment is a state of mind, it is with us all day long. Join us to see how you can train your mind, train your mind to become a better version of yourself, join us in journey of reaching a Peak Performance Mindset.

Here's a wee clip of Boss and Paula's progress so far!
Paula is a Total newbie to riding 😁 We've been working on the basics of moving forward at the walk, steering, using leg, stopping and riding 1 handed.
We captured her 1st ever trot, holding the horn, what a thrill that was, Paula had the hugest grin and was definitely hooked after that 😁
After only 4 lessons, Paula is confidently riding 1 handed, and trotting on the lunge line (but not for long!!)
Well done Paula 👏

I had these two cuties come for a lesson today 😊
Meet Ember and Olivia Rose, they were absolute superstars and really gained in confidence, they didn't want it to be over 😅
Both the girls are looking forward to coming back soon 😊 Boss was so good and chill...He just loves the little ones 💞
