Training
and instruction is offered in Dressage and over
fences, as well as behavioral training and the
basic education of the young horse. Each training
program is tailored to meet the individual horse
and rider's needs. It is clear that every horse
benefits from the balancing and strengthening
exercises of dressage, and Bethany brings that
to her daily work with every horse she trains.
She has also found that trail rides are an important
part of maintaining a horse's physical and mental
health, providing a time for relaxation, and a
wonderful opportunity to encourage impulsion and
forward movement. Bethany enjoys working with
young horses as well, from teaching them the basic
lessons of leading and giving to pressure, to
starting them under saddle. Her goal is to work
patiently with every horse she trains, and to
build a lasting framework of trust and positive
communication.
Dressage
builds more balanced and athletic horses. It is an
important foundation no matter what you have planned
for your horse's future. Bethany offers training in
the building blocks of dressage: rhythm, suppleness,
contact, impulsion, straightness, and collection.
Bethany specializes in developing confident jumpers. Training
is offered for both starting inexperienced horses over fences
and refining the skills of the more experienced jumper.
Ground Training and Starting Your Young Horse
From basic handling and tying, to starting a youngster with
long lines and under saddle, Bethany fits her training schedule
to a young horse's needs – consistent and patient
work.
