My love of horses began before I can remember. After asking every time we drove by on our way home, my parents agreed to take me to start weekly riding lessons down the road when I was seven years old. I was very fortunate to start with a coach that was such a great role model. She was willing to include me in all aspects of horsemanship, allowing me to shadow her and giving me any job I was capable of to earn extra lessons. She taught me to do things right, to take care of the horses and always pushed me to grow and improve. Since our family did not have the means for me to have a horse of my own, I was able to learn from riding many different horses and ponies at varying stages of training. After years of lessons and learning, my coach gave me a great opportunity helping to start the young sport ponies from her breeding program. This was an invaluable experience and showed me how rewarding the process can be.
As many young people do, when I graduated and moved away from home, I stepped away from horses. It just wasn’t something I could afford out on my own. After getting married, starting a family and working my way up in my business career, I found that I needed something for me again. So I began horse shopping. After looking at several big bay OTTBs I saw an ad for a little grey anglo-arab mare. She was an unstarted three year old, a bit smaller than I had in mind and when we went to see her it was apparent that she was full of personality. My husband said right away that she was the one, she was just like me (ha ha). I purchased her and delved back into the training process, bringing all of my previous experience back from memory as well as researching and learning from other trainers locally and virtually. She is quirky, hot, mareish, full of “character” and honestly quite challenging but she reminded me of the joy of horses and how much I love the development process.
In 2018 I decided to quit my job in finance and do something that made me happy. I took a working student position at a competitive hunter/jumper barn and brought my little mare there to start over fences. This added so much valuable experience, again giving me the opportunity to ride numerous different horses as well as giving me new exposure to the competitive equestrian world. I was able to benefit from excellent coaching in a competitive program. I became familiar with the care and routines required for high level sport horses and learned how I could help them perform at their best.
In 2019 I was offered an executive position with an early stage technology company and asked to come back into the corporate world. It sounded exciting and the compensation would allow us to purchase our own little farm here in Alberta, so I took the job. After a year with the company they decided to make some changes and consolidated my position moving operations down to the United States. I started shifting my focus back to my horses at home and realized again, that this is what makes me happy. A couple of friends asked me for help with their horses, and then a couple friends of those friends, and so I decided to take the plunge and open Equi-Form Horse Sport Inc. My goal is to help develop horses that can perform happily to their full potential in whatever discipline they are meant for and to help their riders enjoy the journey with them.
