An eventing trainer/instructor; I have dedicated my life to understanding the horse. I have school horses available, bring your own horse for lessons, or drop it off for weeks/months of training. I teach the classical principles of dressage as given on the classic training pyramid and also the classical principles of cross country riding and show jumping. All horses should enjoy their jobs and most horses at the farm are taught jumping, trail riding, dressage, galloping, gymnastics , cross country and often specialize further in their training towards eventing and dressage. Horses can get bored quickly and deserve a varied training regiment so that they can become well rounded equine athletes and partners. We do what's right for you and your horse!... See More

The name “Miroir du Cheval”, loosely translated, means “Mirror of the Horse”.

Here at MC Equestrian we strive to offer professional, fun, educated instruction and training to both the horse and rider. Our approach to training/teaching is that the horse is a direct reflection of the rider’s own biomechanics.

The definition of biomechanics is: "The study of the mechanical laws relating to the movement or structure of living organisms."
​
If the rider is crooked and off balance, then the horse will be as well. It is our goal for the riders to learn and understand how their own body has a direct affect on the horse in the way it moves and performs. Understanding this makes you a better rider, competitor, and companion to your horse. No matter your riding discipline or style, biomechanics has something for everyone.
​
Biomechanics may be a key part of the training, but at the heart of our passion is using horses as a ministry to bring honor and glory to God. Like the horse reflects the rider, we choose to live our lives in reflection of Him.

Best of all worlds! At Heart to Hoof Horsemanship, Yvonne Welz combines her decades of classical horsemanship dressage training with a unique focus on compassionate horse care and riding. Specializing in bitless dressage schooling, and using natural body language to create a deeper horse-human bond, both on the ground and in the saddle. Many skilled riders are unaware that there are new European bitless bridle designs that enable correct flexion, and actually "feel" just like riding in a bit. Yvonne can help you choose the best bitless bridle design for your horse, and your exact needs.

Heart to Hoof Horsemanship: Riding lessons and horsemanship with Yvonne Welz in the Queen Creek/San Tan Valley area, available at Wishing Welz Ranch, or I can travel to your horse in the local area. Sweet, gentle, well-trained lesson horses are available (they are the real teachers!!). Students beginner through advanced, and lessons are customized to you. Children over age 8 are welcome. Seniors are welcome. And every horse lover in between.

Current rates: $45 per hour at Wishing Welz Ranch, or mobile lessons $55 per hour in Queen Creek/San Tan Valley (travel fees apply outside that area).

What "style" do I teach? No, it's not "English" or "Western" - it is the language of the horse, pure and simple! I do use comfortable "English" dressage style saddles and bitless bridles on my horses, but you can use any kind of tack you'd like, whatever you and your horse prefer.

Experience horses for the first time - riding or just being with horses and learning from them! There are lots of horse activities that can be done on the ground. Being around horses is healing to the mind, body, and spirit. Learning how to communicate with them using body language can create personal breakthroughs!

For the advancing horseperson: learn natural horsemanship skills, connecting and bonding with horses, schooling exercises to develop horse and rider including liberty work, in hand work, cavesson work. For the more advanced rider, learn collected riding skills. Specializing in bitless bridle use and selection, and transitioning horses to bitless riding. Partnership, love, and harmony with the horse always comes first!

We are a genuine holistic center: my other services include consultations for more natural horse care, diet and nutrition programs, natural health management, designing equine facilities and paddock set ups for better horse care, developing therapeutic rehab exercise programs for horses recovering from injuries, fine-tuning our communication with equines, and more!
