Reflection Farm, Inc

Training

Reflection Farm, Inc's training program is based on a solid foundation of communication between horse and handler. Jean has been training horses publicly since 1973. Her training partner and daughter, Jaime, has grown up in the horse business.

Currently we are actively showing on the Minnesota Pinto Horse Association circuit, participate in an occasional Arabian show and coach riders at 4-H and WSCA open shows.

The training process is started the same whether the horse will end up as an English saddle seat horse, Dressage competitor, Western pleasure horse, Hunter or as a down-the-road trail horse. Basic manners and softness are imperative. Proper groundwork is considered a prerequisite to riding.

Our preference is to take in horses for training where the owner is interested in the progress of the horse. The success of our training program lies in the owner's commitment to continue to handle the horse in a similar manner to avoid confusion.

As educators, we strive to become more knowledgeable by learning from the "masters" by attending clinics and seminars.

All breeds are welcome, although we specialize in Arabian, Saddlebred and Arabian cross horses. We also offer a halter training and conditioning program.
