It’s a great morning learning from Jana Bean, NFR Qualifier and well-renowned barrel racing trainer, in our Horsemanship and Performance Horse classes!
We promote versatility of disciplines in our program. Each student has different end goals, but a true horseman should understand all angles of the animal and the variety of purposes in our industry!

Horse training isn’t all fun and games, but it can be! We use this Pat Parelli ball to expose our horses to something they don’t see every day. **tstarting
Thanks to Mike Major Horsemanship for having seven of our equine students out for his fall works on his New Mexico ranch! The students were able to apply what they have been learning in horsemanship class as well as learn more from Mike throughout the weekend. They gathered, branded, and shipped cattle all three days and were able to cover over 15 miles a day horseback!
It was great first week here at NMJC! The c**ts are off to a great start and the students are advancing their horsemanship skills everyday!
