One of a kind coaching!
Although our education program is the heart of what we do, we also specialize in quality breeding and training at our home location in South Dakota, and now offer Equine Massage Therapy. |

Casondra Goldman has over 25 years experience with horses and over 20 years experience with training. She has worked as a veterinary assistant, a breeding program manager, a lead barn manager, an equine massage therapist, and has developed her own lesson and training program in the past that is the basis for creating this long distance equine education program. The main focus of her program is encouraging communication and understanding between horse and rider, and enhanced understanding for those who have no access to horses. She is educated in various disciplines, such as western pleasure, barrel racing, vaulting, endurance riding, hunter/jumpers, dressage, and even pleasure cart driving! She continues to expound on her education every year and is open to learning different types of disciplines and as much equine education as possible to bring to our program.

Casondra grew up in the Los Angles, California area, she has shown and won numerous awards such as ribbons, belt-buckles, halters, blankets, saddles, saddle pads, bridles, trophies, and cash prizes both in local shows and on the 'A' circuit, and would like to help other riders do the same. She has trained horses in California, Texas, South Dakota and Mississippi. She has worked with top riders in the US to expand her equine knowledge. The riding lesson program she developed in 2014 was merged with another program in 2019. Since then she has been focused on creating a program that can be accessible by everyone including those without access to horses.

Natural Horsemanship is the focus of her program, encouraging students to explore the relationship with their horse, the result of which has helped to improve behavior of both horse and rider, and help develop clear communication skills with her students.
