but it's often misunderstood and improperly addressed.

That's why we're excited to invite you to this FREE webinar recording on how pushing changes balance, and what to do about it.


I FINALLY learned the missing pieces I needed on proper development, and motion for my horse. Amy made it easy to understand what was happening to cause the horse to get out of balance, what to look for, how to correctly help them adjust. Within minutes I had the information I had spent over a year looking for. Thank you Amy, I can’t wait to show our development after a couple of weeks!

What You Will Learn

  • The root causes of pushy behavior in horses and why it's such a common problem.

  • Key principles of straightness and balance in horse training.

  • Practical training strategies for promoting straightness and discouraging pushiness.

  • The importance of mindful handling and its impact on your horse's behavior.


Straightness is not just about aesthetics; it's about the overall well-being and performance of your horse. When your horse is straight, they can carry weight evenly over their hunches, leading to better balance, coordination, and overall movement. Unfortunately, many horses struggle with straightness due to a lack of proper training and understanding.

About Amy

I work to embrace a training philosophy based in Classical Dressage and sound horsemanship practices. I always try to keep the best interest of horse and rider in mind, choosing to avoid fads and quick fixes, but to seek continual learning from the best teacher: the horse.

My training program works for all breeds and disciplines and focuses on promoting softness, balance, and relaxation. I believe that any horse can improve given enough time and understanding, and that force and dominance play no part in building a strong relationship. Working with the horse’s mind develops confidence, and an understanding of biomechanics develops correct and sound movement.

I have spent the last several years offering lessons and clinics, with a focus on providing information in a way that best suits each student. I believes that good teaching mirrors good training: offering information in a way the student can understand, and without judgement or force.

My philosophy of training through relaxation carries over to students working to gain better balance and feel with their horses. I believe that learning should be fun and not intimidating, and she provides a safe, enjoyable atmosphere for riders to improve their abilities. With years of training experience under the tutelage of fine horsemen and women like Theresa Doherty, Maryal Barnett, Brent Graef, and others.
