    Avoid and save your horse from injury. I hired this person…read moreto help school my mare. She did okay for awhile then got stuck in an escalating loop of backing her up. Not the tactful 3-4 steps with immediate release forward that I've been taught for 40 years from many quality trainers. This was rough hands, bad temper, 10-20 steps, yanking her back after one canter step forward. This went on for approximately 20 minutes. Then she made a remark about "not winning ". I told her she was lucky the mare hadn't fallen on her. When she got off, she said she "was surprised the mare's mouth wasn't bleeding ". Then she checked her back because she was sure she had injured her back too. I called her the next day and said she could not ride my mare like that, completely unacceptable to ride rough. We agreed to start fresh the next day. I was trying to start on a positive note so I said my expectatio was a more tactful ride. She immediately lost her temper and said I was not allowed to speak to her. No apology or admission that she was out of control and abused my mare. She was only angry that she'd been called out for abusive riding. The place is poorly maintained, manure heaped high right by the ring. Hard pass.

    First impressions only, as I was only there for a short time to video a ride for a friend…read more The grounds are very clean and well-kept, with large trailer parking areas and a circular driveway around the barn for all you non-trailer-backers out there. The horses turned out in runs and pastures all looked well fed and cared for. They have an impressive Extreme Trail Course built outside, see pictures -- this is not open to the public to ride or walk through, which is understandable as it looks like they want to keep everything nice for competitions. There is a huge outdoor ring (maybe 100x200?) with sand/small rock footing -- nothing that I would jump in, but it works for flatting well enough, and they had a bunch of de-spooking obstacles set up at the time that were interesting. They allow haul-ins I believe for $20 per horse/rider combo, which is very reasonable considering how nice the facility is and that you are allowed to use their obstacles. There is an indoor arena also, but we only used the outdoor so I don't know if haul-ins are allowed to use it or not.

The owner, Cindy, took him from me to demonstrate and beat on him On the neck and face with a whip. He was terrified and was trying to back away and escape from her but she wouldn't have it. She just kept hitting him. I asked her to stop and she told me she had to show him who's boss. If you believe that you should train a horse with physical pain, this is your place. Otherwise, avoided like the plague.
