Christmas Already??

Merry Christmas from the arena!  Arena temperature is +43 and is available for open riding activities by appointment. Please call ahead of time to schedule. New to Rock Solid Arena:


Rock Solid Arena Mentor Program 

Whether riding the trails, running competition, or working the ranch, it’s important to be able to cross over, go through, ride by various obstacles that could be scary from your horse’s point of view.

Horses don’t fake, don’t know how to lie, they’re very truthful, so that fear they feel is very real. I help you motivate your horse to overcome his fear. If you approach a creek that your horse is afraid of, you spur and whip to accomplish the task at hand, he’ll be convinced that you’re trying to kill him. The more convinced he becomes, the harder he’s going to fight for his survival. You can force him with spurs and whip and hope he has learned a lesson. Your horse is thinking that he almost died… and hopes he never has to do that again.

My goal is to remove as much stress as possible and encourage you to encourage your horse to try and to trust you. Obstacles come and go, but the relationship I help you build with your horse is here to last.
