Ellie Bricker Horsemanship

"Ellie has been my daughter’s instructor for 5 years, her horse’s trainer for 3, and is my trainer/instructor as well. She is extremely dedicated to her craft, because it is both her work and her passion. She is kind and understanding, knows a ton about horsemanship, all different types of riding, and is always focused on improving herself by learning more. She has learned from a number of very well known horse people and contributes to do so. I appreciate her effort, her professionalism, and her skill. If you are open to learning and willing to put in the time, you will too!"

"Ellie has been teaching our girls for a number of years. Her horsemanship and overall training ability is second to none, immediately recognizing strengths and weaknesses and challenging the kids to improve. Our 12 year old daughter rides English at home yet Ellie is able to incorporate anything at any time and our daughter has improved in confidence and craft. I wished we lived closer!!!"

"Ellie has been my instructor since 2018. I had never heard of natural horsemanship till I met Ellie. She has taught me so much over the years about riding, horsemanship and overall horse care. I bought a horse a few years ago and Ellie has been my horses trainer. My horse gem has come so far under her training and guidance. Gem and I are a great team now because of Ellie’s hard work. I highly recommend Ellie for lessons and horse training."

"As an adult amateur, getting back into riding is intimidating. From my very first lesson with Ellie she greeted me with guidance, knowledge, encouragement and understanding. I’ve always felt valued as a client and know Ellie has my best interest in mind. I’ve grown exponentially as a horsewoman under Ellie’s teaching and she has helped reignite my love for the sport."

"My daughter (12) rides primarily down state. Whenever we are at our house up north we always make time to ride with Ellie. She encourages my daughter to push past her comfort zone and challenge herself. Ellie understands the kids and the horses and just seems to know exactly what to do. We always make time to attend the training camps that Ellie runs. My daughter learns the importance of caring properly for her horse. Respect for the barn and care for the equipment. She is helping my daughter in her goal to become a lifetime rider and equestrian."
