A Program for Riders Who Want to Progress

MG Horses welcomes owners and riders who are committed to learning, improving, and working toward competition-level goals. Whether your horse is just starting or ready to move up the levels, training here is intentional, structured, and focused on long-term success.

We work with a limited number of horses to ensure quality training and individual attention.

Training That Builds Horses for Sport

• Starting & restarting horses

• Performance development for Working Equitation, Dressage, and Hunters

• Competition preparation and rider alignment

• Correct basics: balance, connection, confidence, and rideability

Our goal is to produce horses that are calm, responsive, and prepared to succeed in multiple disciplines.

Horsemanship is horsemanship.

At MG Horses, training is built on clarity, consistency, and respect. We believe the best results come from developing understanding and trust between horse and rider — riding heart to heart.

Through my program, Heart to Heart Horsemanship, I build true connections between horse and rider—relationships based on trust, feel, and clear communication.

I’ve competed internationally, reaching the #1 spot in the 2018 FEI Reining World Rankings and qualifying twice for the prestigious FEI World Equestrian Games representing Team Chile. My career is marked by numerous world, national championships and high-level performances across multiple disciplines.

After training in Europe, Australia, and South America, I moved to the U.S. to continue my dream—and earned my residency doing what I love. Today, I’m based at in West Jefferson, Ohio, where I train, teach, and start world-class horsemanship to riders and horses of all breeds.

Whether you're looking to start riding your self, start a young horse, advance your performance goals, or just learn true horsemanship, I’d love to work with you.
