Western Pleasure - Trail (water, bridges, gates, etc)
I've been involved in horses since 1988. I took the 2 year
Equine Science Program at the Olds College (English Major) as well as the C.E.F.
Western Coaching Program. I am a Level 1 Western Coach, but specialize in dressage
(English). I've ridden
Advanced Dressage (Grand Prix movements such as Passage, Piaffe, Canter
Pirouettes, and Tempe Changes (Flying lead changes every stride). I
absolutely love dressage!!!!
I've trained many
young horses. Young horses are extremely quick learners and owners are
often astonished at how fast they progress. My goal is to produce a horse
that is relaxed and obedient to the aids in the saddle AND on the ground.
Here is a video of
my mare Uma taken August 5, 2008. She is shown with 4 months of dressage
training by me (6 months total time under saddle).
