About

We offer lesson programs ranging from beginner youth and adult riders to advanced show competition. Vaquero Training Center doesn’t teach Western or English lessons. We teach Comprehensive Horsemanship skills both in the tack and on the ground. We teach each person how to best utilize their physical and psychological abilities to best communicate to the horse to effectively and safely achieve the desired results. This, in turn, will develop a solid working and coexisting relationship for the long run. Our emphasis is on teaching the riders to become skilled at placing more importance on the quality of their own performance than on that of their horse.

Our program has been teaching children to ride for over 25 years, some of them starting as young as 8 years old. A great many have gone on to compete with us in the show ring, starting in lead line and growing from there.

While our kids take their riding seriously, they never lose sight of the fact that it’s fun!

    Mike is extremely knowledgeable with horses and humans. He provides a level of understanding and confidents. He has been working with my 3year old and has made major ground. Mike always has the horses outcome in all situations to be the best for that horse witch I turn the rider then has to learn how to properly operate (if you want to say ). The horse. For me has been one of the best experiences I have had in horse world.

    Mike helped develop a solid foundation for a green horse I chose for my daughter who was 9 when we bought him. Mike also helped to evaluate the horse’s suitability for my daughter and is always willing to help us along the way.
