"The way that you put together Centered
Riding and Natural Horsemanship is great.
The awareness that you get of how sensitive
the horse is to body movement and position
I found very valuable. I felt so energized
after participating in the clinic. It gave
more value and understanding for the passion
I have always had for horses. It was exactly
what I needed - Thanks" --Melinda,
CR clinic participant
"I
wanted to write about how great an impact
you had on my riding. You gave me some invaluable
tools that I use 4-5 times a week with my
horse. Thanks to the position and relaxation
I learned from you, I never ride that I
don't feel your input into what I am doing.
So, I wanted to thank you and tell you that
you had a lasting contribution to my horse
endeavors. I also enjoyed you so much as
a human being-your family and critters are
lucky to have you in their lives."
- Gretchen, , CR clinic participant
"Thank
you so much for all the wonderful training
you've given
my
horses. I am so happy and grateful for their
progress and
your gentle patience!" - Joanne,
CR clinic participant |
Instruction
Heidi

of all levels, beginners through seasoned
riders. Students of Western, English, Dressage,
Jumping, Trail or recreational riding are
always welcome. She has also developed a
program for those that are interested in

The benefits of training in the Martial
Arts and Centered Riding are evident in
all of Heidi's horsemanship and riding programs.
They lay the foundation for learning mindfulness,
improving communication, trust and achieving
harmony with the horse. As a CHA Master
Level Instructor, safety and comfort of
horse and rider, is a priority in every
equine interaction.
Heidi teaches at Maple Ridge Stable and
abroad, offering lessons, training, clinics,
and workshops. Clients are welcomed to trailer

of training or instructing abroad varies
based on distance.
