PASSION

In the late 70's, my older riding friends taught me the ropes for camping with horses and showing. A decade later I sat blissfully with these friends, perched on a high cliff in the Missouri Ozarks. As I gazed with serenity over the winding Big Piner River, and the distant ridges and valleys below, it was then that I knew I wanted to pay this gift of knowledge forward to others, to share this incredible high on life I get from riding.

For those of you who have long desired to own a horse but don't know how to achieve it, we are here for you. If you're a current rider looking to improve your horse's performance and relationship, we have the knowledge you seek.

Chelsie Ledbetter

Assistant Trainer, Instructor

​

BACKGROUND

Chelsie has been riding horses for the past 15 years. An avid Western rider, she has done barrel racing, Western pleasure, amateur roping, and enjoys trail riding. Leaving a 7 year career as an EMT, she decided to make horse riding her full time passion. She has worked on guest ranches where she led trail rides and pack trips in the Tetons of Wyoming and Custer State Park in South Dakota.  She now rehabs rescue horses, then trains and sells them to good homes. 

Chelsie loves to teach and has been teaching children and beginner riders for the past two years. Not limited to Western, she can also teach the basics in English riding.
