John Saint Ryan works with horses & riders in every discipline, & at all levels, with a focus on bridging natural horsemanship techniques with the principles of classical riding.  He draws on his experience working under the guidance of Tom Dorrance, & also  from his work with Master Horseman Jose Manuel Martin de Leon of Spain.

John will help each rider improve by directing them toward a deeper understanding of their horse, & ultimately working toward riding skills that incorporate the feel timing & balance necessary to lead to a light and responsive horse.

Here are some comments from John's students: 

John has a unique ability to communicate freely with horses. He understands them and they him. He provides a safe learning environment and works to instill confidence in both the horse and the rider. Working with John has been a pleasure in every instance. His methods are sound and provide a firm foundation for continuous success while training. John is a suitable trainer for young and old horses and riders alike. Your horse will love John Saint Ryan." - Amie

...Being able to read the emotions of both (horse and rider) and encouraging them to proceed at a pace not so slow as to be boring, but not so quick as to scare both parties concerned is a delicate process. To let someone guide you there takes faith. I have complete faith in John Saint Ryan and his love for people and for horses." - Laurie
