At the heart of my work is the belief that meaningful progress with horses comes from safety, connection, and understanding—both physically and emotionally.

My approach to horse training was shaped by my personal journey with chronic Lyme disease. Working within physical limitations required me to slow down, listen more deeply, and release pressure-based expectations. Through this process, I discovered how powerful regulation of the nervous system, relaxation, and positive reinforcement can be in creating trust and willingness in horses.

I help horse–human partnerships develop calm, confident communication and sound biomechanics by blending horse training with principles from yoga and massage. By supporting both bodies—human and horse—I aim to create movement that feels balanced, sustainable, and enjoyable.

While I do have goals to practice dressage, my first priority is always the horse’s experience. I believe horses should feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely able to enjoy their work. From groundwork to riding, my focus is on building partnerships that are rooted in trust rather than force, and curiosity rather than control.
