HorseWorks-Western Equine Center

2023 Sessions

As the great horseman, Pat Wyse, says, "When you're horseback, you're either training or untraining."

This applies any time you are around your horse, whether you're on the ground, or in the saddle!  So, the more exposure you have to more horses of different ages, dispositions, backgrounds, breeds, and experience levels, the more you will be training instead of untraining.  More importantly, the more aware you'll be of when you are training and untraining.  And, the safer you and your horse will be.  Given the broad range of colts and horses with which we'll be working, this exposure is the HorseWorks-Western Equine Center difference!

Full Horseman Experience, Internship/Externship, or Observer

Join HW-WEC sessions for the Full Horsemanship Experience, as an Intern, or an Observer as we train our ranch-raised colts and ride the range!  The late-spring, summer, and fall small-group, intensive, weekly sessions emphasize hands-on techniques with a variety of horses from weanlings to two-to-five year olds of various personalities and in various stages of training.  The Full Horsemanship Experience includes half-day and all-day rides as well as immersion in horsemanship training appropriate to your experience level, both on the ground and horseback, such as round pen work, ground driving, packing, and ponying colts on trail rides.
