Each horse and rider take their own time to learn. Patience and understanding is a huge part of my training program. I feel I have a strong foundation in horsemanship. The horses always come first.

Patience and the willingness to be a lifelong student and openness to try different approaches is how I overcome challenges. Every person and horse is different so its important to be open to approaching from different angles. I love working with youth. They are the future of horse and rodeo industry and creating a solid foundation they will build upon help keep the horse industry strong. I have a passion for the goals both horses and riders achieve in the training process. Small achievable goals and a plan to follow with the ability to make changes.

All’s Well Equestrian

LEARN MORE ABOUT ME
I really try to dissect and explain challenges that come up in training, so the rider understands exactly where the issue is and how to not only fix, but also, prevent the issue. I tend to do really well with training people with confidence issues and green pairs due to this approach. I really love developing a relationship with the horses and helping to build relationships between the horses and their owners.

The horse comes first. No matter the discipline I strive for soft willing CONFIDENT horses who are happy and comfortable.

LEARN MORE ABOUT ME
Crashed Performance Horses
1. No two horses are the same. I find that most issues with horses come from a place of fear and a lack of feeling safe. Most challenges with horses aren't physical but are more so mental. Most horses want a friend who understands what they are thinking. I try to be that. 2. I'm incredibly good with "hot" or sensitive horses. They work well in my program. 3. Being able to help people and horses has always been a passion. I enjoy starting young horses and giving confidence to older horses. Seeing the future success is amazing

PCM Performance Horses

LEARN MORE ABOUT ME
Training isn't just giving a horse a job, training is much more. For me, training is about the look in the horse's eye when they finally figure out that one obstacle. To overcome those challenges I use a lot of pressure and release. I specialize in colt starting, I believe I’m good at colt starting because as I was growing up I was always the test dummy. I was thrown on every horse in the barn, I rode a lot of horse who bucked.

When I have a challenge come up at any point I always ask myself, where did I not communicate suitably for the equine? I go back and break it down further or try a different avenue. I excel in carriage horse training, as I had trained my first driving horse at 10 and I've been hooked since. I am passionate about training horses and mules to further my knowledge and to help the owners excel. It makes me so happy when people can enjoy a multitude of disciplines with their wonderful equines.

I believe horses should take responsibility for their job while remaining relaxed and confident. I love to build their confidence to help them succeed.

LEARN MORE ABOUT ME
EB Boarding and Performance Horses
When overcoming challenges in training I go back to the basics or reflect on myself. I keep it simple, it's either a problem because there's no confidence in the fundamentals or I'm doing something to cause the problem. I feel one thing I do well is help the horse relax along with training. To me confidence and relaxation exercises are just as important as skills. Making riders love riding is something that drives my passion. I strive to help my clients get that "little kid" feeling around horses again.

My approach on training is if the horse is having a issue during training I don't believe in forcing. I try my best to think what the horse is thinking and ways I could fix it using the horses mind before using my mind. I personally do well training young ones I connect and understand young horses best. What drives my passion to be a horse trainer is the reward you get at the end of the day seeing young horses grow and Flourish into athletes

Working with horses, it's not if, it's when a challenge arises. No challenge is the same, but I allow the horse to figure it out on their time, making what I ask clear for them. A rushed horse develops holes and causes problems down the road. I have worked a lot of horses over the years, and dealt with many "problem" horses. I have fixed many holes in a horses training foundation. Seeing a horse go from unhappy and reactive, to a willing horse, that's happy and loving their job is what drives me to do what I do!

The passion that drives me to be a horse trainer is how the horse develops and soaks up learning to new things. When overcoming challenges during training I have to remember that horses have bad days just like us. We simply stop at a good point, take a deep breathe and say we will try again tomorrow. My niche I would have to say is being patient. Patient is key when it comes to horses because they are learning and to be patient with them makes a huge difference in the horse and their training

How I overcome challenges, I go back to ground work, vet checks, a good horse just doesn't stop working. I absolutely love teaching a horse how to bend properly and putting a nice stop on them. My passion to be a horse trainer came from training my first pony at 9. I just remembered the whole summer with frustration and discouragement, once we hit our breakthrough I never felt so accomplished. I will forever train horses so I can feel that again.

Horsemanship isn’t learned overnight, weeks, months or even years. It’s something you never stop trying to perfect; it’s the most important aspect to any discipline.

LEARN MORE ABOUT ME
From the Ground Up Training
Horse training isn't something that is "one size fits all", every horse is different that's why I've strived to continue to learn everything I can from various trainers in various disciplines so that I can adapt to each horse. I'd like to think I'm pretty diverse, coming up with an English background trainer that studied Ray Hunt. I've ventured in many things from speed events/rodeo to trail trials and showing. I love traditional methods. I truly feel the most joy starting, training young horses and I strive to put a well rounded foundation on every horse no matter the discipline.

When I face challenges during training, my first step is to take a step back and see what the horse is communicating to me with their body language and then take it from there. I work very well with problem horses and finding what job suits each horse the best! I am a very empathic person towards animals, and I strive to teach people how to communicate more effectively with their animals and make the best experience for both horse and rider.

Read the animal, it will tell you what it needs to help overcome what is going on. Whether it's more ground work, a bit change maybe just time to think, and in some cases more pressure to overcome an obstinate one. Mules seem to be our specialty, we enjoy both horse and mules along with the occasional donkey. It's a wonderful thing to be a part of helping make an animal into a successful partner for someone. We really enjoy seeing the progress and the help our program does for the owner animal relationship.

Every challenge has to be evaluated as its own situation. What works for one may not work for another. Sometimes the best thing to do is take a step back and reevaluate the approach.

Seeing the "change" is what drives my passion to be a horse trainer. Taking a horse that is struggling or that hasn't been started and watching them blossom and mature is what is such a gratifying experience. I strive to put a solid foundation on every horse that comes in the barn and always go the extra step to make sure that they are quiet and confident through every aspect of the training process. Challenges do occur, but sending a clear message as to what you are asking and always having a proper release is what really makes a difference.

If I find there's a bump in a horses training, I find ways to get them thinking and reacting more fluidly and carefully. I feel like I do well with problem horses because I can figure out what they need or what they might be missing in their time of training. Being able to bring out the horse's full potential drives me to be more passionate about my job. It's amazing to see what the horse can do and how talented they really are. We do not give them enlighten credit even when they do like to frustrate us sometimes.

LEARN MORE ABOUT ME
I tend to approach challenges emotionally and in a way, understand what a horse is trying to emote. I use pressure and release a good bit and try to never reach the breaking point for horse or human. I've found that I'm really good at creating quiet horses. I tend to be a loud person naturally and use that to my advantage. Most of my horses have been exposed to a multitude of things that others haven't, just by my nature. It's been a childhood dream to make myself proud of what I do, and so far, I am.

My name is Breanna Avery! I have been riding since I was 13 years old. I did 4H, high school rodeo and am currently running in the RMPRA. I have a huge passion for teaching others how to ride and barrel race! I have noticed a large hole in the barrel racing world and that is helping up and coming barrel racers understand the fundamentals of barrel racing in order to be successful. I focus on making sure my clients have great horseman's and understand the fundamentals of barrel racing. I offer lessons in person or online over FaceTime.

Handling training challenges varies a bit between horse vs. human students but the most crucial aspect remains the same: You have to get good at discerning the right moments to push a little and the moments when it is crucial you let up a bit. I have developed a fair bit of this "discernment" I mentioned; because of that I tend to be good with young or difficult horses and coaching confidence into my riding students. My passion for the sport has always been innate, I love the animals and am a bit of an adrenaline junkie.

As a horseman, my goal is always to work with where the horse is at in the moment. Often times, I get horses who are mentally troubled. They haven't been allowed to find the right answer but told what the right answer should be. That's where people tend to run into trouble. Helping a horse get into the right frame of mind will illuminate most of your problems. As an endurance rider, safety on the trail is a priority. People will send me horses to make sure that they are solid citizens outside of a ring.

I feel I do well with horses that no one else wants to deal with on take on because they are hard or need a lot of work. 3. What drives me is to see a horse that was not well behaved or a horse that is misunderstood and turn them into one of the nicest winning show horse and watch there owner enjoy and win with them. I like the challenge and the outcome after all the time.

The best way to overcome a challenge is to make sure they horse understands the question, then figuring the best way to help the horse learn. I am a small scale trainer, so I pride myself on becoming intimate and really giving the horses the time and understanding that they are looking for. I have tried to quit horses previously but I have always been thrown back into the horse world, I have accepted that they are my drug and I am addicted. God has also helped heal me with horses so I am giving back to the problem horses.

With 40 years of horse experience, I discover something new every day. That's amazing. They are individuals and teach you something new. They learn and respond will give you all they have if you learn how to ask them. Teaching people to get the best out of their horses and the best way to communicate with them is the most rewarding thing. Teaching people how to care for horses the right way keeps them out of the rescue/slaughter pipeline. Much of my life is dedicated to 'fixing' problems and 'saving' horses from bad situations. They all deserve a chance!

We must approach horses like the individuals they are. Each student like the individual they are. We all learn differently, horses are no exception. With patience and kindness, we can walk together towards a common goal. So many "worthless horses" and "broken people" have found their way courtesy of having the patience to find an effective way to communicate. Celebrating progress, achievement, praise as much as we do correct. Create an environment conducive to learning, create a kinder and more accepting equestrian environment. Working togethe- horse and rider, trainer and student- all things are possible.

Overcoming challenges during training is never easy, breaking the exercise apart in to pieces and putting it back together slowly even over a few days is usually what I like to do for my horses. I specialize in retraining off the track thoroughbreds as hunter/jumpers and enjoy this magical process most of all the things I do with horses. Growing up as an adopted child often left me feeling alone, which lead to the barn and horses being my safe place. I always vowed that because horses saved me I would save them.
