My approach
Ray Hunt once said, "It's amazing what you can learn after you've learned all that you think there is to learn." And I believe just that. You can never stop learning, and every horse has something to teach you, as long as you listen. My job, more often than not, is to look and listen, then figure out their needs.
My Services
Horsemanship Lessons for Horse & Owner
I facilitate and encourage clear communication between owner and horse in order to create a solid partnership.
Colt Starting
Whether completely unhandled, or halter trained, but not yet saddle started, I give your horse the right start to ensure they get off on the right foot.
Problem Solving
No matter the problem, I utilize different ideas and approaches in order to fill in the missing pieces in your horse's training, creating a well rounded equine.
Refinement Training
Taking the next steps in your horses training will create the balanced and refined partner you have always wanted, setting them up for lifelong success.
Barefoot Trimming
Having mentored with accredited barefoot farrier, Philip Himanka, I have learned to utilize his skillset to create a healthy and balanced hoof.
Mustang Training
I specialize in training Mustangs of all stages. My goal is to set horse and owner up for success, creating a relationship built on knowledge and trust.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
I have known Carson since he first began to ride when he participated in a summer horse camp I ran at Joder Arabian Ranch many years ago. I have watched him grow into an accomplished horseman. I was so impressed with his calm and skilled manner with the mustangs he trains, I asked him to work with my Percheron/Morgan mare, Storm. Carson has worked with Storm in the round pen, under saddle and has taught her the foundations of driving. I highly recommend Carson to work with your horse.
