Horseback Riding in Somerset, California (El Dorado County)

Thanks for your interest!

I'm currently taking on NEW clients in the gold country area. I offer lessons, horsemanship under saddle and on the flat, training, starting, ground training, and handler/owner/rider horsemanship training clinics as well as exercising, and equine management. Prices range from $10-$40 depending on the service and I offer discounts or group lessons and boarding barns! I am a mobile trainer but am working on getting our insurance set up for our home farm to start taking on, on site clients as well!

Tons of refrences avalible! Experienced in english, western, Arab/Quarter halter, combined training, pleasure, equitation, and hunters. Trained and train with many well known local people. I offer a unique approach with students focusing on balance, communication, light and confident riding, in a stress free manner. My training program is very simular, I focus on the horse and owner/handler/rider as a team and while I am working with the horse often times 101 I ALWAYS include a short lesson at the end where the owner/handler/trainer is able to learn my meathods inabling a better relationship between them and the horse. All throught the training sessions I take the time to carefully explain why I'm doing what I am and how it's effecting the horse. I use a method of my own and a blended method of regular and natural horsemanship.

Building, Safe Positive and Progressive Horse-Human Relatonships through Natural Training and Teaching Techniques.

I have always loved horses with a passion and have been riding, training and showing horses for over 30 years and I continue to this day to be in awe of their majesty, beauty, grace and forgiveness of the human race.

I truly believe that you have to look at the horse – human relationship as a whole picture to find out what is and is not working and once behavior patterns in the horse – human relationship - whether physical or emotional are identified I can then establish a plan to change these behaviors and develop a positive, healthy and fulfilling relationship for both horse and human.

My goal is to not only teach the horse, but to teach the horses’ owner to teach their own horse, developing a relationship of trust and mutual respect which will build partners for life.

Horses’ eyes are windows to their souls, if you can catch a horses’ eye you can glimpse inside the soul and feel their emotions.... See More
