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.
