Jill has been a dedicated student of the horse for over 30 years. Throughout her journey, she has been repelled by the dominance and hierarchy often found in traditional horse training methods, as well as in our western culture. Deep down, she believed there had to be a path that embraced sovereignty, freedom, and love—not just for horses, but for all aspects of life. Her passion lies in uncovering these holistic horse care approaches and sharing them with the world. Jill’s credentials include being a Certified Equestrian Tai Chi Instructor, holding a B.S. in Psychology from Missouri State University, completing a three-year Equine Science Certificate program at the University of Guelph in Ontario, achieving Level 2 Reiki, volunteering at various horse and animal rescues, and earning a fourth degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do.
