Since 2001, Carla has taken instruction from reining trainer’s Shawna Sapergia, Clay Webster, Jeff Beckley, Locke Duce, and Greg Lauder and competed in the sport of reining throughout BC and Alberta. Although reining is her true passion, Carla has a strong background in both English and Western styles of Horsemanship.

The sport of Reining has allowed Carla to develop a deeper understanding of the horse’s physiology and mechanics of movement which clearly strengthens the communication between horse and rider.  Consistent and clear communication allows for a better and more fluid relationship. Carla’s longtime interest in psychology and her desire to compete in triathlons lead her to study sport psychology and the use of mental training techniques in sports. As a result, Carla feels strongly about incorporating these techniques in her coaching, not only in competition, but also during every ride, “we need to develop and practice these mental training methods on a consistent basis so we are able to utilize them in competitive situations. What is really wonderful is being able to witness the success of incorporating these techniques and being able to then apply them to other aspects of life.”(CW)

Carla believes that the wisdom of a Horse can teach human beings a great deal about themselves, whether by spending time with horses in a learning environment or watching them play in the field. Being prey animals, horses are very sensitive and intuitive beings. They are clear reflections of us and offer a wealth of knowledge when we take the time to BE with them. Their freedom and power are inspirational.
