My name is Heather Williams and horses have been part of my life since childhood! In the past several years, my perspective on working with horses changed. I started to think about the horse as it's natural being, a prey animal. I wanted to work with them in a way that took what the horse was feeling, thinking and seeing into consideration. This began my focus on natural horsemanship. I was looking for a partnership built on trust. I wanted my horses to have the desire to work with me, not work for me because they felt they had no other choice. I now base my training on feel and communication, not technique and mechanics.

Many horses that I've worked with have come to me in a state in which their owners just couldn't deal with them any longer. A couple were considered dangerous under saddle. I've been able to work with these individuals to build their trust in people again and to finally be safe under saddle in lots of different environments.

I also enjoy starting young horses as well as adult horses who are starting later in life. My final training product is a soft, willing and trustworthy horse. I work as closely with the owners for as much as they choose to be involved. Its important for both owner and horse to know what to expect from each other and to build that true partnership.

I work with folks and their horses, sharing my knowledge and insight to pinpoint and correct issues. Working side by side with horse owners and guiding them along the way with whatever their goals are is all part of what I offer. I love sharing those break through moments with people when they start truly connecting with their horse and reaching their goals.
