About

RLM Performance Horses provides a unique experience for both horse and rider to perfect their technique and bond through training.

I've been around horses my entire life, started training at 12 years old and giving lessons at 16 years old. I have worked in several barns and under trainers, and am glad to share what I have learned with others ddI share the same passion for horses as I do.

I showed most disciplines in 4-H, then ventured out into open shoes from dressage to running rodeo and barrel racing circuits. I have taken kids in the local 4-H abs transformed them into confident riders who discover their true purpose and passion.

I enjoy working with people and their horses, and watching them gain confidence with their newly learned skills. Overtime, I have seen both horses and riders alike really come alive and learn about themselves while blossoming as truly talented individuals. It makes my heart smile to see others have that ah-hah moment, or really start to connect with what they are working on.

Frequently asked questions

What is your typical process for working with a new student?

The first time meeting will be a short and simple session on trying to get to know the student and their horse, but also to find out what they excel in and what they want to work on.

The next lessons will be to break each thing down one by one and start making improvements over time. Progress is looked at from all angles and every accomplishment is taken into account. I want to build confidence in my students and teach them to trust themselves, their horse, and the techniques.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I was in 4-H and around horses my entire life.
I began training and riding for others when I was 12, broke my first horse at 15 and started giving lessons when I was 16.
I worked under a trainer over the summer, have been to several training clinics over the years. I worked under a trainer for two years, then ran and and co-owner the business for an additional two after I graduated high school.
I left to pursue my own business and build a clientele.

Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.

Lessons are $50/hour, and preferred to have at least 1 lesson per week to be apart of the program.

How did you get started teaching?

I got started in teaching when I was mentoring youth in my 4-H group. I fell in love with helping others learn and grow and decided to stick with it to create a full time program.

What types of students have you worked with?

I have worked with all types of students. Many of my youth have ADHD, autism, anxiety, poor self-esteem, struggle with regulating their emotions, low ambition, and feel as if they don’t fit in with regular sports or other common extracurricular activities. Adults that I have worked with have also struggled with these things. Though I’m not a certified therapy riding instructor, I pride myself in being able to use horses as a way to reach riders and help them overcome many obstacles.

What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?

Find someone you connect with, who matches your energy and supports your goals. Having a creative and optimistic attitude is always a good thing. Being able to communicate effectively and work together is important!

What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?

Why are you wanting to get into horseback riding? What are your goals? What do you enjoy about horses? What are you looking to gain from the experience?
