The Approach

Where you are
is exactly
where we start.

Connected Horsemanship meets you and your horse exactly where you are on your journey — no judgement, no rigid program, no one-size-fits-all method.

Amber combines Natural Horsemanship principles with years of hands-on experience across disciplines — from ground work and liberty to trail riding, cow work, and competitive events.

Every session is built around your specific goals, your horse's personality, and the relationship you want to build together.

The Philosophy

No matter the discipline —
there's always room for
Connected Horsemanship.

Amber's approach has evolved over the years into less-invasive techniques that consider the whole horse — drawing from Natural Horsemanship, LIMA principles, Attunement, and biomechanics.

Whether your goal is a calm trail partner, a responsive liberty horse, or a competitive show horse — the foundation is always the same: real connection, real communication, real results.

About Amber

A lifetime of
learning alongside horses.

Amber's love for horses was immediate — indulged by her grandparents at a young age. She spent her early years as a DIY horse owner and dedicated apprentice to a dirt-road breeding operation, riding and caring for half-feral horses that no magazine could have prepared her for.

She continued through adolescence learning old-school methods and significantly through trial and error — before being introduced to Natural Horsemanship as a young adult. That introduction changed everything.

She began helping rehab OTTBs for rehoming through a non-profit, which led to forming and facilitating a large trail riding and event group as a Trail Coach. From there she became a Certified Riding Instructor with CHA, giving one-on-one arena and trail lessons, trail rides, facilitating Youth Horse Camps, and much more.

Her methods have continued to evolve — into less-invasive, whole-horse techniques drawing from LIMA, Attunement, biomechanics, liberty work clinics, obstacle courses, ranch work, and Stock Horse shows. She is committed to continuing her education through many avenues, always.
