(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/kintsugi/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6131I have been a horsewoman and an animal lover for as long as I remember and it has always been my mission to make a difference in the world<\/p>\n
Over the years I\u2019ve dealt with fears and frustrations in the horse industry. I have succeeded, been stuck, hurt, and set back through old training methods. Through my journey, I wanted to find a better, safer way to work with these incredible animals. Not only to help them overcome their pasts but to perform as well. I want to make sure horses and people don\u2019t have to go through the hard lessons I had to learn to be better horsemen.<\/p>\n
My training, through natural horsemanship, develops a better partnership and bond between horse and rider where both can develop safely and confidently on their journeys whether it\u2019s for pleasure or performance there is always room for improvement in our relationship with these animals.<\/p>\n
I have both been broken and have a great love for broken things and find myself attracted to them in all aspects of my life. I know the frustration and pain in fixing broken pieces of life.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve watched people and horses being given up on because of it. This sparked my passion for those horses and wanting to help both the people and their horses.<\/p>\n
Kintsugi. Kint-su-gi. This is an old Japanese art of repairing broken pottery using gold. The concept is that the broken part becomes a unique piece of history that makes the thing more beautiful.<\/p>\n
My journey is trying to find the broken and fill in the gold in the world around us. It’s taking the bad things life throws at us and choosing to fill our broken cracks with something positive and not with frustration, fear, or negativity.<\/p>\n
Through natural horsemanship, I have now gained the ability to do so as well as to help others<\/p>\n
We hope to help as many people and horses as possible as well as try to find the beautiful gold in the broken in our own lives. We want to give people the knowledge and skills to be able to build partnerships with their horses safely and improve performance.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs gentle as possible, as firm as necessary.\r\nReward the slightest try.\r\nNever release on a brace.\r\nThe horse sets the timeline.\"<\/pre>\n\u2014 Heartfelt Horsemanship Core Principles<\/p>\n
