If connection & true partnership with your horse are your first priority...
you are in the right place.

How to create an 

extraordinary safe,

willing, true partnership

with your horse...

using connection-based training

even if you've experienced setbacks in the past &

feel stuck on how to move forward,

you CAN find the confidence to train your own horse!

You had me at hello! Take me to the signup details...

"Just one week and I feel like I have a new horse.

I cannot even describe how I'm feeling."

-H. Queen-

Raise your hand if...

(don't be shy! I've had mine up plenty of times!)

You've gotten hurt and now you feel afraid, and worse you can't seem to get past it

You've tried several different horsemanship methods and nothing feels right to you and you are so worried your horse will get hurt

You have big show goals, and you want to be competitive, but not at the expense of your relationship with your horse

Your days are so jam-packed it's hard to squeeze in an extra moment, you just need a little extra accountability to keep you on track

You've started & stopped & then started & stopped with the best of intentions to work on your horse & life goals... You get off to a good start - but it doesn't stick- only to lose motivation and get stuck feeling defeated and...

Maybe you have even started to question yourself, why?

Why, when your horses are your passion and your happiest place,

"Why can't I do this?"

Above all else, you want to create connection & mutual trust as you work with your horse but sometimes you aren't sure where to start

"... It’s more than just “horse training”. It’s about life training ... It has changed not only my relationship with my horse, but it has changed my business life and my personal life. "

-KathrynJane F.-

Just imagine...

"This program has been a blessing and a game-changer for me. I live in a little town in Mexico with not any help . I found support , inspiration , knowledge , everything . Now I am a more confident rider and my horses are happier too"

-Gloria Z.-

HERE'S A BOLD

QUESTION FOR YOU

How would it feel to have a path
to follow that actually felt good to you

when you went out to work with your horse?

That built your confidence,

and helped both

you and your horse

to feel safe and heard!

Sound too good to be true?

Keep reading and I’ll show you exactly how!

I have discovered ways to go from feeling unsure of myself

to now moving forward to feel safe

to try all kinds of fun things with my horses!

GETTING TO THIS POINT WASN'T EASY

Even though I have been riding all of my life,

had been a professional trainer and coach for many years, & am the co-creator of TheHorseTrainingChannel.com...

I was always doubting myself.

Was I good enough?

I didn't feel comfortable or strong and agile enough at my age to do myself some of the things I had seen watching other trainers.

To be honest I was scared I would get hurt.

And worse, what if I hurt my horse?

I had to come up with the right skills & mental tools to be able to feel confident and have the ability to keep us both safe & grow our trust & relationship as we tried new things together.

In October 2016, I went to France for a retreat to learn

from the great Frederic' Pignon & Magali Delgado

(the original creators of Cavalia).

I wanted to learn how to communicate more clearly & to connect to the heart of my horses.

That trip was the first step on a quest for self-discovery & to find a better way of working with horses.

It didn't take long for Frederic' and Magali to open my eyes to all kinds

of incredible, powerful possibilities.

Then in 2019, I met the incredible, Charlotte Cannon,

who taught me a whole deeper level of looking at horsemanship.

I was discovering all these ways to connect & communicate with my horses

in ways I had only dreamed of!

I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that I wanted a softer, connected method of training that aligned myself together with my horse as a team

but at no fault of my mentors,

I was always wondering " what do I do now?"

Even though I have trained my own horses my whole life!

More treat training (nothing against this- I still use treats but I found my horses becoming cookie monsters when I used them too much)

 

To push through my own fears and do it anyway- without solving why it was happening (but fear would show up time & time again at the worst times)

 

To go back to old-style training methods and tell my horse what he was going to do when (and YUCK that felt embarrassingly awful & took several days of apology to get back to connection)

I told myself: There must be an easier way to have a safe, well-trained horse...

that starts with connection...

that does not involve force...

puts the horse first in the training process...

& squashes my self-doubt...

ALL at the same time.

AND THAT'S WHEN IT HIT ME!

It's not just one "method" or training style

but the combination 

of all I have learned on my journey

of over 40 years

that creates the perfect, safe path

for working with your own horse!

It is the "extra" you add to ordinary horsemanship

that creates an EXTRAORDINARY partnership

So, I gathered up my confidence & went to work.

And this time, I finally started to see the results

I'd been working for so long:

✅ I was blessed to win 2-World Champion Titles (in ways that put my horse FIRST)

 

✅ I gained the respect of my then mouthy 2 year old

 

✅ I was able to create a pre-ride checklist that is helping hundreds of women have safer rides

 

✅ With the added bonus to build my own confidence that has carried into all areas of my life

THE BEST THING?

IT IS SO FUN, it is safe for the horses AND me,

plus it saves time!

You will find that you will feel more & more bonded with your horse,

AND they will learn more in less time after just a few sessions

So how does it work exactly?

Our program at it's core is based on a simple formula...

(it sounds a little corny but it works)

To make it easy to remember we will count to 1,2,3

3 skill sets that blend together to build your confidence

& create a safe, willing, heart horse


1

Confident Horsemanship Skills

Learn to improve your horsemanship skills for optimal safety & to become the leader your horse needs

so he/she can look to you as the best place to feel safe


2

Relaxation & Connection

Discover how to show your horse how to relax so she/he can connect to you to create mutual trust,

so you can teach your horse to be in a state to learn & play, ready for focused training


3

Horse Training

Learn to teach the fundamentals every horse needs to know to keep you both safe while maintaining a partnership

so you will also have a firm foundation to build on for advanced maneuvers

Can this really work? You bet!

I told you I had won 2 World Titles after making the subtle shifts in my training...

But what I didn't tell you was how.

My gelding has a lot of hock issues, so I couldn't ride him much in the weeks coming into the show.

I had to follow the relaxation to connection to trust model based on The Cannon Method™ mixed with The Heart Equation™...even though he is a very trained horse.

It's a long story for this page but the proof is not only in the ribbons that it was a success...

Most importantly he was so happy.

It was truly a team effort!

These steps also worked like magic for reconnecting safely with my mare, Raven, as you can see in this quick video clip ...

-Leslie C.-

The only horsemanship program for horsewomen that combines training & personal development with an extraordinary horsemanship program THAT PUTS THE HORSE FIRST to guide you in creating a trusted, willing, connected partnership with your horse with CONFIDENCE.

What makes this different...
It is not just a course... oh no!

Or a giant library of videos

I have been through too many of those that sat collecting cyber dust on my computer.
It is not just a class or some training lessons, it is a way of being
and it is a new way of doing
.
The entire EXTRAORDINARY HORSEMANSHIP Program is designed to get you into action

Tiny Action=Big Results

When you combine personal growth, goal accountability, support & connection-based horse training
...you experience partnership at the deepest level
the more you experience it, the more you want to keep going.

Plus, Extraordinary Horsemanship is a program designed for equestrian women... by equestrian women...

if I can do this, you can do this.

Meet Your Horsemanship Coach..

I have been given the profoundly important job to help you believe in yourself. To find that girl inside you who believes anything is possible in her life & with her horse.

That you. Your horse. Your dreams. They are all essential to the world & they matter. You matter.

For whatever reason, God, the Universe whatever you like to say, has put in your heart this love of horses, maybe it is to help you, your family or the horse. Sometimes it's a mix of them all.

Standing in your pasture or barn, or boarding barn down the road is the most powerful tool for girls like us to bring out the best in ourselves. To live our best life.

You will do for that horse what you won't do for yourself. And you feel most alive when you are with them.

Listen to that voice. That draw to be you. It matters.

You might know me as the co-creator of The Horse Training Channel, or the creator of The Equestrian Planner, or HorseGirl.me. You might have seen me out showing my ranch horse.

But, if this is our first time meeting, I am a horse girl just like you whose life revolves around horses & my family.

I have been incredibly blessed to partner with Charlotte Cannon in producing "The Cannon Method: Connection, Confidence & Relaxation" and she has graciously allowed us to share her message & lessons throughout our programs.

As she teaches us over and over, Everything Matters. Everything with the horse... from the slightest flick of the ear...means something...is telling you something. As we learn to "hear' & see the little things, the bigger messages come.

Together, it is our highest goal, to change the world for horses & women, like you, that love them & to get you to the barn doing what you love.

With a step-by-step plan to help you believe in yourself (because if you don't believe you and what you are doing- your horse won't believe you either). To find greater joy & fun in your horsemanship that will spill into all areas of life.

And to share the message that it is past time to rethink traditional horse training giving your horse a voice & a choice to create a true, authentic partnership.

It’s not only the right thing to do…it’s the most fun you’ve ever had in your life. And it all starts with learning to trust yourself.

What others are saying about our programs...

"I was able to confidently sign up for beginner riding lessons today and am super excited! I also am on my way to work with my pony and have envisioned a perfect work session with her where I groom with intention and presence and then I am envisioning taking her into the arena and walking with her confidently."

-Kimberly J.-

"The Cannon Method is a game changer! It took my high flight jump at who knows what, to being my favorite horse to ride. We have a bond that was never there.... He is 26 this year... so if it works for a horse in his 20s imagine what you can do with one younger"

-Cindy H.-

"I bought my dream ranch in October 2019 and my mare threw me off in November. I lost what little confidence I had left. I've been feeding horses and helping my youngest learn to ride. March 1st, I started hand walking and running my mare around my property. At first, she didn't want to go, and then we started having fun running up the hills together. Today, I thought, we are both ready. I saddled her and told her I believed in her. At first, she didn't want to go, and then we had fun on those same hills. Thank you sisterhood!

"I did it! I stood at the door of my barn and did the 'power pose' I visualized my ride, I used my trigger words, and most importantly, I believed in myself and my horse! After several months of fear and lack of confidence, I rode my horse, Mia, this afternoon. It wasn't the best ride as I got a lot to improve on but I did it and she did great! My heart is happy and I'm looking forward to our next ride! Thank you to Jen, Lauren, and this great group. You helped me! 'Success is letting go of fear!"
