~ What my Skool is all about ~
I’ve spent over 40 years working with horses & mules—and the truth is, it was never just about the Equines. It’s about communication, trust, and learning how to show up differently—both in the saddle and in life. I’m the owner of Wagoner Training LLC, where I help riders of all levels build confidence, develop real feel, and create honest partnerships with their horses. My background includes everything from colt starting and mule training to running large-scale operations, mentoring trainers, and leading programs that serve people navigating stress, trauma, and major life transitions. I’ve also led teams and organizations outside the arena—as an Executive Director, business operator, and leader—so I understand both the human and operational side of growth. What I care about most:→ Helping people feel capable again→ Building trust—on the ground and in the saddle→ Creating safe, structured environments where real learning happens→ Using horsemanship as a tool for personal transformation If you’re here, you probably know horses have a way of telling the truth—and I’m here to help you learn how to listen, respond, and grow because of it. Let’s get to work.
