Hi,
I specialize in Western pleasure, english pleasure, hunter under saddle, halter, and showmanship. My students have won breed, open, and 4H shows. I do haul students to competition and 4H shows and open arenas. A little about me: I have won as well as place in APHA shows (Western pleasure, futurities, hunter under saddle, halter and english pleasure), AQHA (futurities), and Open show series (Western pleasure, hunter under saddle, english pleasure, showmanship, and halter). What I am looking for in my selected students: Dedicated to hard work and learning, the desire to show, and the willingness to have fun.
Thank you,
Laura Sheets

Hello there! My style of teaching is based around the principle that bettering one's self will directly benefit their ability to work in unity with their horse. I firmly believe that what we bring to the relationship defines the limitations of our partnership, and that the majority of horsemanship is about building yourself up to be the person your horse needs. I always seek to empower each horse and human as individuals first, and then as a unified partnership. My lessons are centered around building mindfulness within ourselves and our horses, emotional resilience and regulation, and creating better understanding and practice of how to effectively communicate with our horses. Perhaps you are struggling with anxiety around riding, or your horse spooks too much for your comfort. Maybe the riding part is going great but you desire a deeper connection and feeling of togetherness with your equine partner. Or it could be that you're interested in work at liberty, and your horse is perfect when on the line but the second he's loose he wants nothing to do with you. During lessons we will learn and practice how to better understand and work with our horses, outside forces, and ourselves in a more productive and fulfilling way. If you are wanting to create a deeper mutual connection with your horse, decrease anxiety, increase reliability, and expand the possibilities of your partnership, reach out for a free phone consultation to see if my services are right for you and your horse! I also offer virtual coaching and small, intimate workshops and clinics.
Please visit my website or youtube to see more of what I do.
