Meet our Instructors

---

 Hi, my name is Alex, and I am a trainer/instructor who focuses on confidence building, relationship building, effective equitation, and correct, effective training for both horse and human.
I swung my leg over a horse for the first time at 6 years old; since then, it has been a passion of mine to learn about this animal, discover how to continue to make them a valuable part of our world and an important link to our faith.
I have 10 years of experience developing both horse and rider.
I enjoy training those who are serious about their horsemanship journey, from brand new to the horse world all the way to multi-horse owners who are looking to expand their knowledge base.
Clients of mine both current and past have gone on to be better, more effective communicators to their equine partners, recovered their confidence after it has been lost, and have purchased their very first horse.
My goal for my clients both horse and human is to ensure that they have the best, safest experience all while having fun and learning.
So, whether you are just embarking on your horsemanship journey, seeking more knowledge, or are stuck in lack of progress with your current horse(s) I am an instructor who can help you to reach new heights! 

Hey there, I'm Mackie, and I'm excited to share my lifelong love of horses with you! Riding has been a part of my world since I was a little girl, and now I'm living my dream as an instructor, specializing in western riding.

I'm passionate about training and guiding riders of all ages and levels. Whether you're taking your first steps in the saddle or improving your skills, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Horses have always held a special place in my heart, and I pour that love into each lesson. 

My approach is all about creating a fun and supportive environment where you can learn and grow at your own pace. Whether it's mastering the basics or perfecting your technique, I'll be right there beside you, cheering you on.

 Building confidence is key to becoming a successful rider, and I believe that with patience and perseverance, anyone can overcome their fears and achieve their goals. I've worked with many nervous riders, and I've seen firsthand the transformation that occurs when they start to believe in themselves. From gentle encouragement to gentle nudges out of their comfort zones, I'm dedicated to helping you unlock your full potential and become the confident rider you were meant to be!
