“A bottle of water can cost $1 in a supermarket, $4 at a gym, $5 at a cinema, and $8 on an airplane. The only thing that changes its value is the location. So the next time you feel like you’re worth nothing, you might just be in the wrong place.”

Know your worth.

“The rein contact should feel the same as it does when the horse is traveling in a straight line. If he is too heavy on the inside rein, soften your inside hand and use more inside leg and seat instead. You want the horse to take up more of the outside rein for a proper bend. If your horse is too heavy on the outside rein, it could indicate that his neck is overbent and he is falling through your outside aids and has lost straightness or that you are using too much inside leg and are pushing him out of balance.”

Fun fact: Equines have bigger eyes than any other land mammal. They also have a third eyelid which lies on the inside of the eye and closes diagonally over it for added protection.

Your kind words mean a lot! Here’s a testimonial from a current client:

“I’ve been horse riding with Sarah at Apollo Equestrian for one year and I love every lesson! Sarah’s teaching style is supportive and encouraging, yet progressive and challenging. Sarah asks questions of the rider and and provides feedback during every lesson. The lesson horses are all sweet-natured. Every horse has their own personality. The facilities are great, and all the other riders are friendly and welcoming.”

Victoria, client since 2023

This time of year is so bittersweet. The downside of having a program near a college campus is that we see some of our riders graduate and move on to the next stage in their lives. The upside is of course that we get to be so proud of them for their accomplishments!

Special congratulations to newly minted Doctors of Veterinary Medicine Sarah Davis and Emily Frye! We’re so honored to have been part of your journey with horses, and grateful for your commitment to animals’ health. We’re proud of you and can’t wait to see what you do next!

Wow! This wind is something else 😳

Huge thanks to Kayenta Equestrian for taking care of our horses today when the wind is howling like crazy. There’s never a bad day to say thank you to your barn managers and staff, but on days like today they deserve some extra appreciation!

Enjoy a photo of Kayenta’s former barn cat Spencer who became Sarah’s house cat… I wonder if he appreciates being an inside pet a little extra on a day like today 😆

I can’t believe the progress this made has made in LESS than a month! All our horses have been happy and settled in well, but Callie so far is the Most Improved Pony of our gang! She’s so comfortable physically since moving to Kayenta, and it’s showing not just in the way she goes and carries herself, but also in how consistently happy she’s been! I can’t believe this is the same horse. I love this mare. This video is with one of our super adult students, whose commitment is paying off in progress as well! #calicoprint #bestottb #ottbs #ottbsforthewin #englishridinglessons #lessonhorse #apolloequestrian #besthorses #fortcollinsco #myfoco #smallbiz #womeninbiz

Fetching horses in the jungle!!

Someone is happy to be jumping this spring!

#throwbackthursday to watching Tamie Smith and Mai Baum celebrate their win in Kentucky last weekend!

A simple line is always a great opportunity to practice and improve straightness. A small circle before the line can be added provided that the horse and rider can ride the circle well enough that it improves the riders ability to keep the horse between the aid and maintain a rhythm.

Today, a gymnastic exercise with a bounce, to a one stride, to a two stride. This is a great exercise to practice footwork for the horse and for the rider to practice their position over several different stride lengths.

A simple exercise to introduce rhythm and allow riders to practice maintaining a consistent rhythm before and after an obstacle is to practice over trot poles (in this example, three trot poles) and ensure you can maintain the same rhythm before, through, and after the poles.

Windy day yesterday! 🌬️ And yet the worst day outside is still better than the best day inside.

It’s never too early to start introducing fillers to young horses (but keep your heels down! 😆)

Todays exercise… The circle of doom! 😆 But it doesn’t have to be doom… start small with piles of poles, and build based on the horse and rider!

#throwbackthursday to jumping my best boy 🦄 #jumpallthethings #equestrianjumping #keepjumping #gojump #horsejumping #showjumper #stadiumjumper #showjumping #jumpernation #gojumping #jumpcourse #jumperrider #jumperhorse #equine

Throwback to looking through my favorite ears at some beautiful fall colors #apollothethoroughbred #thatswhyitsapolloequestrian #gojump #onwardandupward #hearthorse #apolloequestrian #thoroughbred #ridethebest #rideathoroughbred #colorado #myfoco

Another simple gymnastic, in this case set for a horse who is still fairly new to this type of exercise- one stride, to two strides, to two strides. This horse and her pilot did great!
