Training season is back 🄳 thank goodness!

I love updating every once in a while on the training horses I have… they may not all be mustangs, but they are all great horses. There’s Warmbloods, welsh cobs, quarter horses, and mustangs currently…
-
This is Alfie! A 3-year-old warmblood and just the sweetest šŸ­ I worked with him when he was a yearling for a few weeks, and he still remembers most of it! He’s in training to be started undersaddle. He may be my favorite for the season (I have a thing for chestnuts) šŸ˜‰

I’ll be sharing the others soon!

I meet lovely new people every year while traveling for clinics… some of them are EXTRA thoughtful and kind ā¤ļø

In North Carolina, Timber who owns Leather Co gifted me this beautiful custom halter. I have to keep it clean now! She did a fantastic job!

In Arizona, Jami who owns .co gifted me this beautiful burned hat with my logo and my special heart horse’s name on it… so talented!

I always get a bit emotional when I’m gifted things so please wait until after the clinic so I can hold it together to teach šŸ˜…šŸ˜‚ but seriously thank you so much for these ā¤ļø go check out their pages!

In the month of September, I’m getting to work at a barn that is helping some reservation horses live a more comfortable gentled lifestyle. It’s been fun! I have a few more sessions with them this month. I’ll share a little of their progress there. So far I’ve worked with 2 of the res horses (mare and foal) and worked on haltering and feeling OK with touch, a QH that needed help with buddy sourness, and a TB that needed some boundaries and a routine. They have some cool things going on here and want to start a therapy program! I’ll share some more information on them next time I post the horses šŸ™‚

During the mustang classic I also had the chance to do a short demo with my good friend Ann SBF Mustang Eventing! It was fun riding with these two boys together šŸ’œ we had lots of fun. I wanted to share some shots from this fun expo!

I’m officially home in Florida šŸ šŸ§”

Such a fantastic clinic and event season! I taught 48 clinics, countless private lessons, virtual lessons, and multiple demos… all within the country and out of the country! Most of them with my best bud Lynx next to me. I don’t think any mustang, or horse honestly, could replace him. He’s my right hand man!

I can’t wait for c**t starting and training season, we begin soon at Prosperity Farms and it’s going to get busy!

7PM, between the downpours, walking down a wet black ramp trailer, with someone in the trailer behind her, two people right outside, me in a scary dark rain jacket, and on the end of a 2’ trailer tie as a lead rope 😳

All with only a few days of gentling in a small pen. She’s a rockstar! Excited to see what this yearling mustang becomes. ā¤ļø

Time to reveal a secret… she is in Florida! ā˜€ļø

The little Muskrat Basin WY filly I gentled in Maryland for the Mustang Summit found her way to me in Florida. While she’s not mine… she is owned by a close amazing friend! Who lives right near… the Muskrat Basin HMA in Wyoming šŸ˜† so one day she will return there! One of the other sweet fillies found a home with my other friend in Maine. I’m so glad none of the yearlings needed to go back to holding ā¤ļø

For the meantime, she’s stuck with me šŸ˜‰ Learning new skills and prepping her to be started undersaddle in a few years! You’ll see her here and there. She will have 1-2 weeks off to settle and have a break from all the crazy travel.

I just knew that someone close to me needed to have her. She is a special one! I’ll share a short clip of why in my next post 🤩

Name reveal coming soon, and I’ll keep sharing occasional updates of her ā¤ļø

Still smiling after the Mustang Champions Classic this weekend ✨ Getting to do a demo with my mustang, Lynx, was such an incredible experience. I loved showing in the Rolex arena with Pixel last year, but it was equally as great to bring my personal mustang there to show off English mustangs!

For years, the makeovers have been western geared. If you saw someone riding in English tack, it would be about 1-2 people out of 30-50 competitors. Initially I was one of those 1-2… and then I realized I had to show western, with the way the classes were designed, to keep excelling.

Finally, there’s a chance for you to compete with your English mustang ā¤ļø it’s so special to me. This is my 11th year with mustangs and the past two years with the English competition have been awesome. Don’t get me wrong, western is great too, but this really helps show them off in a different light!

I promise I did some great flat work and dressage maneuvers before bridleless… there were just more liberty & trick photos to choose from 🩵

Lynx was a great partner and showed everyone just how versatile and talented these horses truly are. I feel so lucky to share the arena with him and to be part of such a special event celebrating mustangs. Huge thank you to everyone who cheered us on—it means the world to share Lynx’s journey with you all šŸ“šŸ’™
