Riding Instructor Interview Series Continues!

A wonderful chat with Aimee Zabst, who focuses on how kindness is key when teaching riding. 

Here's more about Aimee, from her bio on her website:

Aimee Zabst brings more than 25 years experience professionally training horses and teaching people to ride and handle horses.

Her experience and dedication to developing new riders can help you on your journey achieve your horsemanship dreams! You can start as a beginner, or anywhere else, to develop kind, knowledgable, and effective horse-handling skills!

Her experience spans junior riding starting at age 10 and eventually competing in Hunter/Jumpers,  Equitation, and Western Pleasure, through professional competition as an adult in Hunter/Jumper, Western Pleasure and Dressage.

She grew up in New Mexico, competing all over the state, and then moved to Las Vegas.  She finished college, and got back into horses and competition, and finally started her professional training and instructing career in 1995.

She moved to California in 2005, and started a new business training and teaching for 12 years, focusing on Dressage.

After she moved to Oregon in 2017, with three young prospect horses and a seasoned lesson horse, Aimee started her new venture, creating Where The Heart Is Ranch.  The lesson program is flourishing, with a sweet pony, 1/2 Draft horse, a quarter horse, and several thoroughbreds in the mix, to provide a variety of experiences for many types of riders. Aimee continues to teach the skills of balanced riding and wise horsemanship to her many students from the area  

So, wherever you are in your own horse journey, Aimee wants to help you define and achieve your own dreams!
