I just love this quote!! I’m learning all the time. How about you? I have a couple spots left for clinics at your facility. Message for details or visit TAPS Training and Showing and tapstrainingandshowing.simdif.com.

ALSO! A rare event…. I have room to take on a couple new students. Let me know if you are interested! Could be at your place or at North Riding!

I love this. It is the absolute truth!

“Going too slow is actually scarier than going forward. Timid or fearful riders want to be cautious – so, naturally, they want to go slower. But if a horse isn’t going forward, they won’t have enough momentum or power to get themselves out of trouble if a mistake were to happen. I try to explain to fearful riders that they can actually get into more trouble by going too slow than by carrying some pace. Pace helps your horse to help you.” Traci from With Purpose: The Balmoral Standard

I dont care how difficult a horse is, if a horse is a class horse, if the horse is mentally, physically a class animal, I put up with almost anything - George Morris

This is my mantra! 💯

"Lessons are called riding lessons, not horsing lessons. Their primary purpose is to develop a rider. Once there is a good rider, he can become a trainer of horses, yet often riders are asked to train before they have the skills to do it."
