Quotes from Susan's students:

From Kate Russell:
" You have revolutionized my approach to horsemanship. I will always be grateful for my introduction into Centered Riding and the principles of natural horse care. I have seen many people approach horses in many different ways-your way is the only one that resonates with me. I feel you have given me the tools to become a great horse woman eventually. I have never met horses as happy and healthy as yours - It has been a privilege to ride and know Mel, Miles, Spirit, Ringo, Indigo and dear old Paint. They have all taught me something too, and I am grateful."
   " I think I have learned more through your words and actions than any professor has taught me. I really count you among my greatest mentors."

From Laura Pike, 10/10/08t to tell you how important your positive reinforcement is during your lessons.  As a teacher myself, I know I give reinforcement to my students.

But anyway, just wanted to let you know that I noticed and it is also helping me."

From Tori a working student:
"The experience Susan Kelly provided for me at Big House Stables is indescribable. Her gentle touch, grounded nature, and complete understanding of both horse and human is unbelievable.  See for your self..."
