HM Performance Horses
Here at HM Performance Horses we understand that every horse, and horse owner has different needs and expectations.
That is why we have designed our training program to accomodate a wide variety of  horses and riding disciplines.  Horses in
training receive all of the benefits of full board as well as riding six days a week. We are firm believers that not only do horses
need to know how to ride in the arena, but outside of it as well. Therefore, we spend a lot of time on them outdoors whether it
be trail riding or working cattle.
Training Includes:
~ Starting young horses
~ Working with "troubled" horses
~ Fitting horse for the show ring
~ Finishing horses for performance
~ Desensitizing

Baymount Farm.   Natural horsemanship is teaching a horse to respond to specific cues based upon what is natural to the
horse.  A horse naturally walks, trots, canters at different speeds and collections, naturally turns on the haunches or
forehand, naturally flexes at the pole and neck among other natural and athletic abilities.  Just watch them at play and you will
be amazed at what they can do.  Taking those natural abilities and turning them into natural responses from cues making
them a happy and willing companion eager to go where you want, when and at what speed has been my goal for the past 20
years of my training experience.  We have 12 x 12 matted stalls for your horses comfort, plenty of turn out time and daily
grooming for a healthy coat.  for more info go to
