Hi, I’m Asia Adkins, owner and trainer at Adkins Horsemanship. Serving southern Colorado, I offer thoughtful, foundation-first training focused on creating calm, confident, and reliable horses.

With over 20 years of experience, I work closely with each horse as an individual—prioritizing softness, clarity, trust, and steady progress to help horses and riders succeed together.

Whether your horse needs finishing, confidence building, tune-ups, or a solid foundation, Adkins Horsemanship provides patient, effective training tailored to both horse and rider.

Limited training spots available to provide each horse with focused, individualized attention.

Welcoming Ben to the program with this amazing evaluation session and ride. Ben is in for a tune up after being an outfitter horse for the first 13 years of his life. He’s built like a tank but suffers from low confidence. After being evaluated by two other trainers, Ben’s owner was feeling nervous about riding him and scared of getting hurt. She was concerned that his lack of confidence and inability to relax after a solo trail ride started was going to get her hurt, so she reached out to me. After just one session and a hack in the great outdoors by himself, Ben is showing major improvements in his ability to self regulate, pause, and process unfamiliar objects, sounds, or movements in a brand new area! I am truly looking forward to riding this incredible gelding to get him nice and calm for his older owner to safely ride!

A couple of my favorite pictures of Lisa and Tiger! Watching these two grow their bond and learn how to work together has been such a beautiful process.

Of course I hopped off my horse to pick up an elk skull for my client on a trail ride.

Tiger has a lot to learn about this new environment, and the cold paired with strange lighting can make it overwhelming for any horse.

Here is how we have adapted to Ivy’s reactivity to having her ears handled when bridling to make it a positive and calm experience for her. These
combination bridles can also be used on horses with warts or injuries in their ears that find bridling painful.
