Miranda Allyn Horsemanship - Horsemanship and Equestrian Mindset Coach -
I help ambitious, growth-minded equestrians become the kind of leader their horse—and their goals—need.

Miranda is a horsemanship coach specializing in helping experienced horse owners who are looking to expand their understanding and skillset of horsemanship foundations. The quickest way to influence a horse’s mind is through their feet, but you need to understand how and why a horse thinks, acts, and reacts in order to achieve that. Through her teaching, Miranda combines the horse’s psychology wit

h simple groundwork and riding exercises designed to gain control of the five main body parts (head, neck, shoulders, ribcage, and hindquarters), helping horse owners become a trusted leader for their horse while building confidence in themselves as horsemen. This is perfect for horse owners who want to strengthen their bond with their horses, feel more confident in handling and riding, and gain practical tools to navigate challenges with clarity and purpose. Miranda Offers:
>Private and Group Lessons with your horse at your facility.
>Clinics Upon Request
>In-Person Workshops and Presentations

When you spend hours at a time in the saddle, such as at a clinic, you're able to get some pretty good data and feedback in real time.

I noticed there were a few times that I would mentally get distracted, mostly thinking about situations at home, and it was clear to me that my cues weren't as clear, and the horse would quickly get confused and not perform as well.

There were other times that I was so physically sore and hurting that I could tell I wasn't riding 100%, and that would cause the horse to become more uncomfortable from having to overcompensate for me.

So I started listening to the feedback and what my gut was telling me.

A few times, if I knew I was physically miserable and unable to give 100%, I would just get off the horse while we were standing around in discussion, and I would just love on my horse. (He loved his little neck massages).

When my mind would drift off, I would grab a drink of water that I had stashed in an upside-down cone on the arena fence, then ride off and practice slowing my cues down to try and make them clearer again in my brain first, so they came across clearer and consistent to the horse.

Horsemanship is about being present in the moment, and sometimes that means backing off, getting off, or even stepping away for a few minutes.

I had so many amazing takeaways from this clinic opportunity and I wrote them down so I can continue to share them as time goes on. And I'm so thankful for everything.

As I told Phil, the best way that I could explain this experience is, I already had most of the puzzle pieces that we covered, but the colors were blurred on each puzzle piece making the puzzle hard to build. (A lot of that came from sooo much time off working with horses.)

By the end of the clinic the pictures were crystal clear on each puzzle piece. He truly explained things in a way I've never heard before that made so much sense.

The cost of the clinic from entry fee, hotel, rental car etc., has already paid off 10x this weekend. I can only imagine how it will pay off in my future career training horses. This is why I stress to take every advantage of learning from others.

This horse was the biggest Rockstar. He gave me everything, all day, every day, for a good 12 hours of riding.

I am incredibly blessed & thankful to have had the opportunity to have ridden him. Everything I asked his response was, yes ma'am.

The coolest part is he felt just like riding Queenie. Not just looks but actual feel. I get it now when people talk about riding bloodlines they like. Just maybe I will shop for Sun Frost lines again. I also attribute a huge part to his amazing owner and quality horsemanship.

Getting to ride a true western performance horse in a western performance setting flipped my switch back to 2009-2010 riding cow horses and oh man I am locked in on my goal of becoming a western performance horse trainer, particularly barrel horses. The fire is back and alive n well. 🤩

The legend himself! 🤩

I knew Phil would be a nice guy, but his clinic has blown any expectations out of the water and he's the nicest, friendly, most supportive person, even on little sleep from a rough flight in. I'm already wanting to plan my next clinic with him.

So far this trip has felt like a magical experience and the arena is giving me all the rodeo vibes 🤩

The bed & breakfast I'm staying at is literally a mile down the road and is the most charming, hallmark fall vibes old farm house you could imagine.

Its surrounded by farm fields & They're cutting beans across the road.

And my handsome boy is just the cutest.

Today I had the exciting opportunity to take my son to story time with Anna Sohn, Miss Rodeo Michigan!

Today Anna read a book called Rodeo Queen Quinn, a book written by a former Miss Rodeo Michigan! It was a super cute book and I'll definitely be ordering it for my kids! (I found it on Amazon!)

I briefly had the chance to speak with Anna in the past, but it was great to finally meet her in person! Be sure to follow her journey coming up in Vegas competiting for Miss Rodeo America!

Thank you to Amber Bruckner and Pine Row Preschool and Childcare for allowing us to tag along for story time!

Sometimes I catch myself overthinking the meaning of things—so much that I finally just grab a dictionary. Because let’s be real: we’re always chasing clarity.

Clarity in our goals. Clarity in what we truly want. Clarity in priorities and responsibilities. And sometimes, all it takes is a simple definition to shift perspective.

Today’s look-up: Contentment vs. Complacency.

It’s easy to confuse being content with being lazy or giving up. But they’re not the same.

👉 Contentment may look like giving yourself permission to just trail ride for a season instead of pushing to keep showing.

👉 Contentment may look like turning your horse out to pasture while you focus on other responsibilities.

👉 Contentment may look like releasing guilt in a season of survival while you’re still holding onto your bigger dreams.

Complacency, on the other hand, is settling for less than what you’re capable of—not because you’ve chosen peace in the moment, but because you’ve stopped caring or trying altogether.

The difference?
✨ Contentment = peace with where you are now, while still honoring where you’re going.

⚠️ Complacency = giving up the vision entirely.

So if you’re in a season where you feel guilty for “not doing enough”—pause. You may actually be practicing contentment, not complacency. And that’s a healthy, worthy place to be.
