Fear: It’s What’s for Dinner.

Ever been afraid of a horse? No? I don’t believe you. Fear is a pretty natural response, especially if your feet can’t touch the ground. It’s common sense, horses are big. They have twice as many legs. Horses have a fear/flight response, and after a certain age, so do we. (Read this, about fear and confidence.)If you rode as…See More

"Jackie, great comment. I think that MS is helped too, even stirs the opposite. Good for you."

"Even after 40 some years of riding fear came back as my MS got worse and worse. I still feel fear (not panic) quite often, especially getting up on a horse I've never ridden before. But through these years I've learned that…"

"I'm fortunate to have good horse friends too. And I'm glad to say one of them is my Mom. When my baby girl died, I was humbled at the people who leapt into action and let me cry on them. I'm glad your boy is home and…"

"Wow! I sure wish I had horse friends here like that! Many of the horsey people I meet are quite stab in the back types. So you up not trusting them."

Why We Need Horse Friends.

“You know, no one will ever care about your horse the way that you do.” My friend said it in a testy voice. I’d gotten my first horse since leaving home and she’d heard about nothing but him for the last month. Her support was wearing thin. She missed her friend who cared about art and music and movies.A few months later, a different friend returned home to introduce her new baby. It was her dream come…See More

"Thanks for sharing. This story is so realistic towards the times. The mare in my avatar (at 20) was a rescue who was severely neglected. By the time we had built up the trust to ride her, we learned what she learned. It was obvious that…"

"Congratulations for finding a way to bring him home. You are right that it never should have happened, sometimes things "just happen" even with the best of intentions. It just shows how thin that line between elite horse and…"

A Very Thin Line.

A client and I went to see a horse this week. He belonged to her in the past, but I have known him through 5 owners, each time given up reluctantly. This horse is 10 years old. Our Boy is a sensitive, athletic horse, smart and honest. In other words, a wonderful horse. In other words, a horse not just anyone can ride.He was donated to a riding program. They had lots of older horses that give kids a good…See More

"The old Arab mare in my avatar photo, Mia, had been through the mill by the time I started riding her. Near the end of her first (?) owner she got loose on a trail ride and ended up caught by thick briars for 2 days. She thought she had…"

Profile Information

A Bit About Me and my Horse(s): Good partnership with a horse is showing leadership in such a positive way, they work for you by choice.

At Infinity Farm, we believe that every horse benefits from dressage and that every horse can love his work. We train horse and rider by using the time-honored principles of classical dressage combined with natural horsemanship – learning to speak the language of the horse.

Our name, Infinity Farm, means exploring the endless possibilities of the horse/human relationship. We believe you don’t have to own a fancy horse to be an elegant, effective, even elite rider. You can continually grow as a rider and your horse can grow in strength and understanding — as you both work together with sensitivity, relaxation and grace.
