Kathleen wants to help people to train their horses to be comfortable, safe, driving horses, enjoying what they are doing. Her client base includes a wide variety of students ranging in age from 10 to 70, horses ranging from 34” very small equines right up to 16HH draft crosses.

Kathleen has worked with horses in a variety of disciplines: back country wrangler, competitive trail riding, stock horse work, dressage and various recreational pursuits. All of these equine experiences have taught Kathleen a great deal about being with horses – patience, perseverance, the rewards that come back to you if you put the time and energy into a project (and she doesn’t mean financial!) and the companionship and positive relationship that is available with our equine friends.Kathleen has a driving center south of Calgary, Alberta.
