Happy Trails
Cathy has trained countless horses and riders to go out on the trail and enjoy the feeling of being out in the open. Whether your ultimate goal is to jump cross country fences, simply to commune with nature or compete in the Dressage or Hunter/Jumper rings, she "believes that trail riding is totally beneficial to the mental and physical health of horse and rider."
To this end she teaches all her students how to ride up and down hills while helping their horse to stay balanced and in control. They explore how varied types of footing will affect the way their horse moves and learn how to adjust to accommodate the differences. Her students learn how to deal with new and possibly scary situations, how to cross water, deal with traffic and all the other potential hazards one might encounter on a trail ride or Hunter Pace.
