Testimonials

Meghan is a phenomenal trainer for all levels. Not only has she transformed my confidence and skills as a novice adult rider, but she has also shown me the importance of applying the fundamentals of horsemanship to improve the partnership I have with my horse. She is a patient instructor with no judgment, and she is truly dedicated to furthering our progress each lesson. She teaches using evidence-based techniques and explains the ‘why’ as well as the ‘how’ of riding and horse handling techniques. Her training is equally effective for younger riders. She has taught my daughter how to work with our horse and build a strong foundation of horsemanship. I cannot recommend Meghan highly enough- she is a trainer that cares deeply and is willing to put in the work to see success in both horse and rider alike.

Meghan is an amazing trainer and horsewoman. Since day one of his training program I have felt completely at peace knowing my pony is getting an excellent education with her and will be set up for lifelong success. It is obvious how much she loves each of the horses in her program. Meghan always considers my pony’s emotional well being and meets him where he is at each session but also knows when to push to reach the next goal. I appreciate that she is so transparent as well, inviting me to come out to watch her work with him so I am in the loop of his training progress. What makes her program unique is that she doesn’t only focus on the riding and groundwork-she also has a wealth of knowledge on postural work and getting the horse’s body to a place where they are actually able to participate comfortably and willingly-which many times will help solve problems going on in the ridden work. If you are looking for a professional that is passionate, knowledgeable, and has your horse’s best interest in mind Meghan is the trainer for you!

Meghan has been working with my mule and me for a few weeks now. She has just been absolutely wonderful and I’ve been learning so much. I am able to read my mule’s facial clues more often and feel like the bond is growing with every session. Couldn’t recommend Meghan more if you are really looking to build that connection with your horse (or mule)!

Meghan is passionate about her work and is incredibly knowledgeable. She continues to grow and learn as a professional, participating in classes and clinics to improve her level of expertise. As a relative novice when I started working with Meghan, I have evolved into a competent horse person being relied upon to exercise and train several horses at another therapeutic riding facility. Meghan helps me to identify areas of improvement and clarifies the best possible path forward. Because of her reflective nature, she seems to ask the exact right question to guide my learning even when I'm not even sure what is preventing my success in a given situation. She is gentle, kind, and genuinely expresses joy in my successes, even when they may seem small.

Meghan has been working with a horse, Grace, at our farm so I get to not only watch her technique and style, but also experience the results. Grace is a very sensitive mare who started out so afraid of people.  Since Meghan started working with her, Grace is completely in tune with her handler once you put that halter on.  She’s calmer and so willing to work with her person.   Watching Meghan work with these horses has reminded me how much we can do for our horses through groundwork and that this unity on the ground can translate under saddle!!

I reached out to Meghan when I was feeling like my horse and I had reached a plateau within our training and relationship. Meghan has provided me with thoughtful and tailored homework after every lesson to keep us moving forward and making progress towards our goals. She has a keen eye for the details and will provide small adjustments that make a big difference! 

I am so pleased with how far my horse and I have come in a short period of time under Meghan’s guidance and support. I have become a more confident horsewoman and feel like I have a better understanding of my horse and what he needs from me to be successful! My horse has become more relaxed and his posture has improved since working with Meghan. She celebrates my wins with me and pushes me when I need it!
