WestWay Training Facility is a small, professional horse training facility. We specialize in colt starting, ranch sorting horses and tuning up/legging up horses of all ages. We also offer riding lessons and ranch sorting lessons. Occasionally we hand select and train horses that we show and/or sell.
We know your money is hard-earned and needs to be well spent when
it comes to training your horses. We keep the number of horses in training low, so your horse gets the time
it needs and deserves. We incorporate many of todays "natural" horsemanship techniques and some good old fashioned horsemanship into our training program. We focus on getting horses soft in the face, flexing well, moving off the leg, balanced, stopping quick/correct and confident under saddle. We also work with owners to become proactive riders, it is our belief that your horse will never be any more consistent than you are. We teach proper balance, clear leg/rein cues and proactive/consistent riding. We also believe and teach that horses do NOT need a best friend or a mother, they need a qualified and caring leader to really become great horses. We can help teach you to be that leader and your horse will LOVE you for it.
We don't do a rush job, we do a great job!

"Horses are just like people; there are smart ones, dumb ones, miserable ones, honest ones, simple one, cheats, freaks, leaders and laggards."
"They have good days, bad days and plenty of average days. They can be brilliant one minute, horrible the next."
"They can remember something that happened a year ago and forget what they learned yesterday."
"They'll walk placidly into a metal starting gate that clangs and rings when the doors open and then be scared of a bucket that wasn't there yesterday."
"And we think we know what's going to happen this afternoon."
