A place where happy horses make happy riders! Chase those dreams & may the stars align! My name is Laura and I have been around horses for the majority of my life. My first horse experiences were out on the trails and wide open spaces of Wyoming. My Aunt and Uncle owned a couple of western competition horses and I was lucky enough to have been thrown on their backs as a kid. What a way to start, I
have to say, it was quite the beautiful place to be riding horses. The exposure to the horses at such a young age had me wanting to be around them MUCH more. At the age of 7 years old, my mom bought me riding lessons at a little Hunter/Jumper barn. There I learned the basics and went to grow out of their program. At that point, I was 15/16 years old and Eventing came into my life. After Eventing took the reins, the rest is history. I spent two and a half educational and hard working years at Versailles Equestrian and then had the opportunity to travel to Aiken, SC in 2014. Eventing Trainer/Rider, Jennifer Dougherty graciously offered me the opportunity to travel with her to Aiken and I took it! Going to Aiken with Jen meant that I had to quit my full time job in a corporate building, receiving a weekly pay check, health benefits, the whole shebang. But I quit anyways! I knew that where I was, sitting in that cubical, was NOT where I was suppose to be. I have now been following MY DREAMS for over 2 years now and I need to say it, I love it! Seeing the joy in my students eyes and laughter from their hearts when they jump a jump or even just learn how to trot is, without a doubt, what I know I am suppose to be here for. I want to help people follow their dreams with riding and to make those people who are already following their dreams better riders. Thank you and I cannot wait to see what 2016 has to bring!
