bio

I launched my business at the age of 18 because I wanted to make a difference in the lives of horses. I found to me what was a revolutionary style of horsemanship that made the lives of horses better through methodical work, gymnastic exercises, perfection of balance. I set out to preserve the art of horsemanship. Now, turning 48 having been involved with horses professionally for 30 years, I bring a lifetime of experience and knowledge to the horse industry for those who are looking to better their relationship with their horses.
