A Wee Bit of Green Farm Mustang Refuge Wounded Warrior Project

A Wee Bit Of Green Farm Mustang Refuge Wounded Warrior Project is all about the horses and the experience that you receive when you go there and learn how to ride. The instructors work with you from the beginning and as you progress one of the instructors also rides with you so you can see how an experienced person does things. This allows you to follow how they handle different situations or diff

erent terrain whether it being going up a hill or down a hill on the trail. I really like working and taking lessons at Nancy's. She has allowed me to get to know the horses first hand and see how she grooms for different events. Whether it being a parade or competition trail ride. After you have ridden there for a while Nancy will let you go on competition trail rides with her where we gallop the horses over jumps and just have a good time running around the country side. If you would like to get into showing, Nancy will allow you to show one of her horses, but you have to pay the entries, which is OK with me cause then I get to keep the ribbons. We also go on gallops around the neighborhood which happens to be about a thousand acres which is fun. As far as training Nancy is accepting training board. This is where you bring her your horse and she trains it for you. I think right now she has two openings. One of things I like most about working with Nancy and Norm is they implement the Clinton Anderson DownUnder Horsemanship in their training. They encourage you to become a member of the DownUnder No Worries Club and go and watch Clinton do his thing. Nancy's not perfect at it but she does a pretty good job at helping you to understand the method. Nancy comes from a Western as well as a Hunter/Jumper/Eventing background so she likes to implement the method with all of the things that she does with her horses. Nancy first started out riding Western when she was 4 and moved into riding English around the age of 10. She has trained horses in Western and English styles of riding. A matter of fact all of Nancy's horses learn how to go western and then move on to whatever the horse turns out to be good at. Meaning after Nancy breaks a horse she tries to figure out through the horses breeding, confirmation, and just the horses way of going what he or she might be best suited for. Nancy feels that a horse that doesn't want to be a barrel horse shouldn't have to run its butt off around a barrel, it may like to be just a trail horse or a lead pony. Give her a call and stop out for a lesson. I always take my lunch and hangout after my lesson and watch Nancy ride one of the horses.
