I am a 2 Star Parelli Professional. Have you ever dreamed of having your horse follow you like a dog? Can you run away and your horse will follow? Can you ask your horse to jump a log or circle you? These are the things I love to teach. Liberty is asking your horse to do different things without any ropes or halters on. I will teach you how to interact with a horse through his mind. You will create a harmony and connection with your horse that you can only dream of now. Groundwork always creates a better riding horse. If you are having trouble with your horse misbehaving this could help you understand if he is scared or just refusing the particular situation. I have had numerous years of training with Parelli and other top Liberty trainers from around the world. I would love to help you. Sorry, but I don't give lessons to children..... See More

Desiree
Desiree, has an extensive background in both the Western competition arena with 4-H, PRCA Rodeo Queening, and Open Quarter Horse Shows.....and in Dressage and Eventing. Through Desiree’s involvement with Dressage and Eventing she earned her USDF Bronze Medal, is a USEA Preliminary Level Gold Medalist, and a United States Pony Club graduate.

Desiree loves being involved with local riding clubs and has grown up being a Jr 4-H Leader and went on to organize her own 4-H Club as an adult leader. She has had the pleasure of working with children and adults since 1986 and as part of growing up in a home where mom rides and trains, Tapainga and Chaise could not help but learn how to ride and teach.

Tapainga
Tapainga has been a staple in working with young children since she was 12 where her love of children combines flawlessly with her love of horses. However, as life happens children grow up and Tapainga is now an active duty member of the US Army residing in Augusta, GA. But, when she has time to visit, she is always ready to step into the instructor role where she can.

Chaise
Continuing the family tradition, Tapainga’s little brother, Chaise, has stepped in to fill her shoes. Chaise has a passion for working with children and offers simple and fun experiences for children who desire to learn about ponies and have a fun time.

Sidney
Now we can’t have a family affair without recognizing the wonderful man behind the scenes, Sid. Sid is the one who supports us in all our passions and desires, and we could not do any of this without him. If we need something built, he is there with his ability to construct literally anything. Sid hauls hay, transports horses, clean stalls, works our arenas, holds horses while we run to the little boys & girls rooms at shows, and any other behind the scenes activities that never get enough credit. We could never operate without his support.

The Horses
No family affair would be complete without including our darling ponies. No matter how much we ride and compete on our my amazing equine partners, we will always have a passion for ponies. No matter how big our children get, there will always be room for ponies on our farm....because for us they aren’t just another horse, they are family.... See More

THE ART OF HORSE & HUMAN COMMUNICATION…
I have created a very unique series of programs and opportunities through the years of perfecting the horsemanship experience. I have learned to combine my highly unique animal communication gifts with my soft touch approach to equine training and teachings. My approach allows you to gain insight within and understand the mind of the horse, while learning how to build a true connection based on trust from the ground up.

Hogany Tops Farm has been on sabbatical for some time due to health and extensive surgery. I am so blessed to be healthy and able to relocate and open our doors again! We welcome everyone of all ages and levels to our program!

Hogany Tops has openings in our lesson and training programs and we would love to help you excel in your riding, whether it is for competition or pleasure, or to help you with your green horse/pony or your made up horse/pony continuing to improve! We teach and train at our facility or we can come to yours.

Hogany Tops Farm is a hunter jumper training and lesson barn located just outside of Dallas, TX, in beautiful Edgewood, TX,
dedicated to establishing superior horsemanship with physically fit, willing and content, well trained horses and riders. Accordingly, a consistent training routine and at least a minimum lesson program are pertinent to accomplish this goal. Training and instruction, specializing in hunters, jumpers and equitation are designed with the horse and rider in mind and customized to fit each one’s individual abilities and objectives to reach their full potential. We focus on correct equitation in the jumpers as well as the hunters. All good riding is based on dressage as a foundation. Hours spent on the flat ultimately produce a fluid ride over fences in the hunters and an accurate and powerful ride occurring in a timely fashion in the jumpers.
All levels of riders, beginner through advanced are welcome in our lesson program and we have wonderful lesson horses for those who do not have one! HTF provides the opportunity to horse show at both local and national competitions. Hogany Tops Farm offers quality horses and ponies for sale or lease.
Hogany Tops Farm originated in 1985 in Macon, Georgia. The business is owned and operated by Jo Beard, who was born, raised and educated in Virginia. Her love for and association with horses began at an early age, in the family barn, which at the age of eight led her to horse shows and fox hunts with her father. Her journey with horses continued to the professional level when at the age of 18 she was schooling, training, and showing horses and ponies and catch-riding at horse shows. Her professional focus centered on hunters and jumpers and as she developed her own riding skills, she became involved in the sport of steeplechase racing and took that to a highly successful professional level as one of two licensed female steeplechase jockeys in the United States. She has subsequently trained and owned hundreds of show horses and has consistently been successfully involved in both local and national horse show competition. Today, her focus is on the interest of her clients and their goals and aspirations. She has the experience (over 40 years of teaching all levels), and the skills and patience to take them where they want to go. Both Jo’s children and grandchildren are also very successful and well-known in the hunter jumper world! Jo’s extensive experience in the industry has created a wide network of friends and professional associates nationwide. Referrals will be gladly given upon request.
Visitors are always welcome! Please feel free to call for information, rates and available packages and visit/like our Facebook page at Hogany Tops Farm and to catch up with our activities!!
