Now that it has cooled down a bit I'm looking for just one client, maybe 2 if location is close enough to visit every week/every 2 weeks for a little extra work. Mesa-ISH area

PM me on my personal Facebook facebook.com/dancingshorts as I don't check this page anymore

Prefer somebody I've been to before but can take a new client. Hundreds of references in Arizona and around the country.

I will no longer be training horses for the public anymore or much at all. I will consider certain circumstances if referred or if I see a post and I think I can help someone, but it would only be 1 or 2 visits. It would be for problems that I consider easy, but you would just have to message me and ask, I won't be starting horses anymore though as that takes more than 1 or 2 visits.

There are a lot of reasons for this decision, I could honestly write a book about why I don't want to be part of the horse world anymore. The trainers, the owners, expectations, it just became too much for me. It felt like I wasn't actually helping most horses, in a way I was, but it felt like it was more about money than actually doing good by the horse. Not to mention I have always struggled with not being good enough. Having all these expectations on me to perform and train good so people keep paying me and having me come back makes it so I skip steps and put myself in danger and I'm just not at the point in my life anymore where I want to risk getting hurt just for money.

For anyone wanting to know ANYTHING about horses, please check out Warwick Schiller Attuned Horsemanship anything you will learn by paying me $100 for 2 hours you will learn from him for $30 a month. I know everyone learns different ways, so that's why in my first paragraph I mentioned I MAY still offer limited time services to people depending on the circumstance.

To close things out, the people that know me know that I have been invested in dance since moving to Arizona. I will be pursuing a career in dance from now on. It will be hard and a lot of work but that is my passion and I will do everything I can to make it happen. If you would like to become friends or follow my journey you can add my personal Facebook. Warning: a lot of dance content.

I'm also still looking for a place to live especially for next summer (which can even be a tiny room, even if only for the summer) where I can exchange work for housing instead of living in my car. Phoenix is very hot! If you or anyone you know has any opportunities let me know by messaging my personal Facebook.

Thank you for everyone I have ever met in the horse world, that took a chance on me and helped me make a living helping people and animals. There are just so many names to mention and I'm so grateful. Sorry I have not been my best lately. Now is my time to focus on helping myself and other people. Thanks again, signing off.

I am back in Arizona. I have not made a post in a while but I like what is being said here, if you know me then you know I don't like to de sensitize, yet I focus on getting horses relaxed.

SAFE HORSES ARE NOT BUILT BASED OFF DESENSITIZATION

I can’t really remember the last time I picked up a tarp. For those not familiar with me, I built my business starting colts and taking on the horses that no one else wants to deal with. I never could ride a buck, maybe a crow hop so my methods had to be tailored to communication and trust. Which is what we want anyways right?! Most owners miss the concept of how to properly prepare a horse to keep them save.

Safe horses are built off yielding and direction. It’s how horses communicate in a herd setting so it only makes sense when we translate in a horse/human relationship. When your approach is tailored in this manner, the horse finds confidence through movement. Relaxation though movement follows. He cannot entirely brace through movement. He finds direction through movement. He finds feel through movement.. See where I’m going with this? Think how you approach your horse today.

One of many topics discussed in my Clemetson’s virtual groundwork 101 fb group. PM to join before January 4th!!

I'll be in Texas In December. I'm definitely going to be in Houston but I think I'm going to stay a couple weeks longer, so let me know if you want me to come out. Houston/Dallas/San Antonio/Austin/Tyler

The place I am living at has decided to sell her horses so I'll be looking for a place to stay in the middle of December.

Just mainly need a place to sleep and shower, something small. Around Phoenix/Mesa. Prefer to work for it but I'm open to options. Let me know if you know of anything.
