"Hey Julia, Just wanted to let you know I am enjoying my time with Macie so much more these days!She is much more open to mutual communication with me and is taking direction so well.

Thank you enough for helping her through the road blocks.

I cannot recommend The Horse Center highly enough. Julia is a wealth of knowledge and experience and her website is very well put together, user-friendly, and affordable.

If you own horses, no matter your level of experience. The Horse Center is a valuable asset that you shouldn't be without"

"I spoke with Julia tonight about my gelding and have been going through her online training.

She is top notch. She thinks of everything from their brain to all physical issues. She also is one of few people left in this world that can spell and you can easily follow her train of thought and understand what she is teaching you in her courses.

I'm so impressed with how she trains and teaches and after getting the 1 on 1 experience I am even more impressed with everything she has to offer. I'm a fan and I've been in the horse world for 40 years, not much impresses me these days. She is truly different."

"Hi Julia, You gave me some advice for working with my nervous horse by introducing more choice to what behaviors I ask for, like offering a target as an easy option if what I'm asking is too hard. I just wanted to say thank you!

We had a wonderful training session today, and she became way more relaxed. As soon as I noticed any tension, I would ask for easy behavior like a target, and she would immediately relax again. She stayed much calmer and I feel much more confident about working with her. So thank you again!"

"I just wanted to update you that Cascada is doing well, and I can see more muscle development on her hind end and neck post colic surgery. I applied the body work/ massaging techniques that you reviewed with me last week. It was so helpful to see with another horse and in person what to look and feel for.

Thanks so much for connecting with me on this! It's been helpful to learn about this and how to apply it on my own. It was so helpful to see you work with your horse and help me get the feel for it."

"Today we did a thing! It went really really well! He stood there and ate treats out of my hands and I petted him and talked to him for about 5 minutes and then I got off. He never spooked or tried to walk away or anything! It was just exactly like the dreams l've had about sitting on him. It felt like a memory. I'm on top of the world!!!

Julia and The Horse Center Academy have helped me and my boy SO MUCH! What she teaches is so valuable to anyone who loves horses. I highly recommend her online courses and lessons"

"Julia is an amazing trainer. I'm SO happy with the work she did with my horse and what I have learned through her courses.

My horse was with her for only a month, but in that time she was able to make great progress with him. Not only did she teach my horse, but she also took the time to teach me as well. I feel like she set me up for success as an owner and gave me all the proper tools to continue his training. I highly recommend Julia and am so happy with her work."

As a lifelong equestrian, a certified equine behaviorist through the IAABC and positive reinforcement clinician, I'm not quick to call someone's training exceptional.

I first came across Lincoln, a breathtaking Friesian Sport Horse-Barock Pinto type gelding that Julia had for sale. Initially, I passed on him-he was outside my budget and all the way on the West Coast, while I'm on the East Coast.

But as I reviewed his training videos, I was struck by Julia's depth of knowledge and skill. Her ability to seamlessly integrate both positive reinforcement and pressure-and-release techniques is incredibly rare. She doesn't just train horses; she understands and applies the science of learning with a level of finesse that is truly uncommon in the industry.

I couldn't resist reaching out to tell her how impressed I was. At the time, I had no idea she had already built a strong following in her own right.

Long story short, Julia was so gracious and helpful that we were able to make that stunning West Coast gelding a part of our farm here on the East Coast. From start to finish, it was a storybook experience, and I feel incredibly fortunate—not only to have found such a wonderful horse, but to have connected with a trainer of Julia's caliber.

If you haven't spent decades in the equestrian world like I have, you might not realize just how rare Julia's skill set is. If you ever have the opportunity to work with her or purchase a horse she has trained, I suspect it will be life-changing for you. I wish there were more professionals like Julia, but for now, I'll simply celebrate the fact that I was lucky enough to find her-without even knowing her reputation beforehand. Sometimes, the universe just deals you a really great card.

Thank you, Julia. I will be forever grateful for the incredible training you've provided to Lincoln. You're truly on the leading edge of science-based, compassionate, effective horse training!
