ClientTestimonials:

 

"I have worked with a lot of trainers but once I audited one of Samantha's classes I was hooked. It was and continues to be the best training for me and my horse. So blessed to have found her." Theresa, CA

 

I’ve been watching your Dear Sam series on YouTube, and it feels like you are talking directly to me and where I’m at in my human-horse relationship journey. So much of what you say is deeply resonating with me, and I finally feel like I’m starting on a path that feels right for my and Chapo’s relationship. Getting other people’s voices out of my head, and my own critical thoughts of where I’m at is difficult, but I just wanted to say thank you for helping me to find some clarity and realize I’m not alone in all of this. I wish I had more opportunities to work with you at Oakzanita, so I don’t resort to other trainers who I know aren’t putting Chapo’s mental state first, but I remember you telling me in person and through the videos that I am the voice for my horse. The only task I’m really fixated on accomplishing is building a supportive relationship with Chapo, and I will explore the additional resources your website has to offer in the meantime. Looking forward to March and April! Tori, 2022
