I will never be the trainer who tells you that you can only learn from me.
One of the biggest things I believe in is having a strong team and a strong network around you and your horse.
If one of my lesson students wants to ride with another trainer, attend another clinic, learn a different discipline, or simply get another set of eyes on something they’re struggling with — I encourage it.
Why? Because growth doesn’t happen in a bubble.
Different trainers bring different experiences, perspectives, exercises, and ways of communicating. Sometimes hearing something explained a different way is exactly what a horse or rider needs. Sometimes another trainer has a specialty that can add something valuable to what we’re already working on.
And honestly, I will even help you find that person.
If I know someone who specializes in what you or your horse needs, I’m happy to help make the connection. Whether you need a different training perspective, a specialty discipline, a clinician, a bodyworker, a farrier, a veterinarian, or another resource — I want to help you build the right team.
My goal isn’t to make you dependent on me. My goal is to help you become a better horseman, a better rider, and a better partner for your horse.
I want my students to have a network of people they trust — people who can all contribute something different to the bigger picture.
I don’t see another good trainer helping my student as competition. I see it as another resource for the horse and rider.
Go ride with someone else. Go to the clinic. Ask questions. Try something new. Bring what you learn back to me, and let’s figure out how it fits into your horse’s program.
Because at the end of the day, we’re all trying to accomplish the same thing:
Help the horse. Help the rider. Keep learning. Keep growing.
There is plenty of room in this industry for good horsemen to support each other.
And your horse deserves a whole team in their corner.
