HOW I TRAINED MY OWN HORSES. KIMBERLEY'S STORY

Kimberly had two horses, both 3 years old. She wanted to break and train them herself. With no previous experience, she was anxious to find advice and guidance that would really work.

For many years, her dream had been to learn how to train horses. Her dream was about to come true. Here's what she says:

Ruth helped me to achieve one of my life's goals. She explained and guided me, via email and her web site, how to go about training my horses in an appropriate, gentle, horse-friendly way. With no previous experience of my own, Ruth found the way to reach me overseas and describe how to connect with my horses in a way which promotes mutual respect.

I was able to understand Ruth's suggestions and instructions and to successfully do what she asked. What a great feeling it was, to mount and casually ride my horses for the first time, with no other training than what was provided. Everyone said we would have a rodeo display, but it never came!

I am eternally grateful to Ruth. Her constant encouragement has meant the world to me. Not only is she a great trainer, but has become a friend as well. I know my horses appreciate her methods and I look forward to continuing my equestrian education with Ruth's help.

She says, "Thanks so much Ruth. I meant what I have stated above. You are a great person to devote your time and life to helping people with their horses".
