Empowered Horsemanship
Empowered Horsemanship is a heart-centered approach to riding and training focusing on the partnership of the horse/human relationship. Just like a house needs a strong foundation to keep standing, so does your relationship with your horse. Building a strong bond between horse and rider is the foundation of all training.
Jennifer offers customized training programs for both the horse and rider. Each horse and rider is a unique individual with its own characteristics and personality and learns at its own pace; therefore each horse and rider team requires an individual approach. She believes that it is our responsibility as trainers and owners to learn how to listen and communicate with the horse on their level. Teaching you to think the way a horse thinks keeps your horse interested in you, allowing you to gain access to something very special - an unbreakable bond between horse and rider and the discovery of life skills to aid the human in all relationships.
Jennifer has taught riding lesson for more than 15 years including therapeutic riding lessons and several more years experience in training horses and competeing in a variety of disciplines. She studied dressage and jumping while living in Germany. She has taught all seats of riding - western, hunter/jumper and dressage.

understanding fear and other dark emotions
Fear affects almost every rider at some point, but we are often instructed to "leave it at the gate" never fully dealing with it. This workshop explores the wisdom and transformative power of using fear as information and discovers how fear can actually open the gateway to trust and the joy of letting go.
