grounded horsemanship
Groundwork is the foundation for any successful relationship with a horse, in our humble opinion. Our Grounded Horsemanship program is just that, instruction in the basics of groundwork, leading up to the more complex! Whether you've been riding your entire life, are just starting out, or are looking to get back into horses after some time off, it's all the same to start... on the ground. We work through the basics, learn how to be present (in an often chaotic world). You will learn how to move your horses feet & gain their respect, and that's just to start... There is no timeline, this experience is different for everyone & is based on several factors, the most important one being your personal progress.
Once your basic groundwork is where it needs to be, you have the option to continue doing groundwork sessions to advance your skillset, or to move into the saddle with Lauren Beck Horsemanship and further your journey with the horse you have been working with. Once she signs you off in the saddle, you also have the option to lease the horse you have been working with, but there is also never any pressure to do so.
There is an evaluation session before being put on the waitlist for this program, just to make sure we are a good fit. Not everyone will be, and that’s OK. We are all in different places (different needs, different energy, different goals). SO, we do an assessment session to meet & see how you do with the horses, and to make sure this will be a good situation for everyone from the start. If interested in learning more, please feel free to send me an Email. I would be happy to discuss your goals with you. If it sounds like you would be a good fit for our program, we set up the evaluation session. If not, we know a lot of trainers in the area we can refer you to and hope to be able to connect you with someone who will be a great fit for your needs.

Lauren Beck Horsemanship
We are honored to be the home base for Lauren Beck Horsemanship. Lauren has been a Ken McKnabb Master Certified Trainer since 2016. AmyMichele & Ken actually went to school in Wyoming together (many moons ago) so it felt like fate when Lauren came to the farm and turned out to be such a perfect fit with our program!
Laurens patience, calm demeanor, and drive to help every horse she meets, makes her a great fit for us here at Leatherman Lane! She gives lessons throughout the week to our boarders, in both group and individual sessions. She helps clients in the surrounding area with horses who have difficulties trailer loading, bridling, kicking out, and more. Lauren is the trainer those in our Grounded Horsemanship Program graduate too, once they have completed their groundwork training as well, and we are blessed to have her here with us!
Please reach out to Lauren directly, to discuss your training needs and goals with your horsemanship!
