THe offside equestrian
A modern horsewoman with a distinctively different view of the development of the human + equine bond.
Growing up in an alternative equine sport household, I was taught that a horse must first have nature’s tools to be a horse before it is acceptable to request anything of them. The mindset of ‘whatsoever must be done’ to ensure our horse’s mental, physical, and emotional well being was firmly instilled in us. I was privileged in being raised to view horses as both independent and particular beings who demand and deserve to have their needs prioritized to find success. I am excited to have the opportunity to join you and your equine partner along your unique journey and to share the lessons that the horses have blessed me with along the way.
My Approach
Relationship begins with STIMULATION. Where your horse lives, the herd they live with, how and what they eat; the mental, physical, and emotional stimulation available to your horse are the defining factors in the relationship and training success you can achieve. We will address your horse’s behavior and environmental needs, your goals, your budget, and then personalize a plan to begin building the relationship you’ve always wanted with your horse.
Dream it
What does your ideal relationship with your horse look like? What goals would you like to accomplish? How would you like to feel when you spend time together? We will break down the steps needed to achieve these ideals into a practical, accessible path to success for both you and your horse.
Build it
Creating a sustainable and practical environment for your horse is key. Whether it be a stall or twenty acres, we will figure out what processes and products you need to increase the stimulation in your horse’s life without complicating your own.
