I believe that an integral part of training any horse is getting them accustomed to many diverse situations.  Love and patience are incredibly important to achieve a truly magnificent, confident and sweet natured riding horse.  A firm hand/voice command is rarely necessary when a balance is reached.  I have the benefit of a variety of diverse landscapes to help achieve my goals in a well balanced mount.  Riding trails twisting through steep wooded cliffs, ponds, apple orchards, and a tranquil marsh all combine to achieve the most thrilling and effective training of any horse for western pleasure or endurance.  In addition I train them to be accustomed to roads, vehicles, tractors, trucks, as well as other animals.
