Meet the Manager: Edward M.
With a background in education teaching elementary to college students, Edward Morris has a rich history of teaching all ages of riders in different settings. He rode Saddlebreds in California as a youngster, and that passion led to him training horses for the last 30+ years. Experience with Thoroughbreds early in his career and American Saddlebreds throughout, Edward has trained hundreds of horses and riders to become team members with each other, to work as one. Riding a horse is not a gentle hobby, to be picked up and laid down like a game of Solitaire. It is a grand passion.
