Trainer Sarah Savin has been working and competing with horses since early childhood. Sarah has worked in the equine industry in Texas, Colorado, Australia, and Oregon. She has experience with off the track thoroughbreds, green horses, and competition horses.

Similarly, Sarah holds a Master’s degree in mental health counseling and is well educated in childhood development as well as techniques for anxious or nervous riders. Her lessons focus on positivity, fun, and goal achievement for both horse and rider.

As a rider, Sarah has a “natural feel” for the horse. She focuses on encouraging the horse and finding its strengths. Sarah is also a student of the sport and of the animal. She regularly seeks published studies on techniques and care tips. She also continues her education of the sport by consulting with colleagues and riding with respected local professionals such as Jeff Cook, Kevin Freeman, and Jeff Campf in lessons or clinics. The learning process is one of Sarah’s favorite aspects of the sport. (Source)
