About Tom:

My first memory in life is of falling off a horse at the age of two and I have been falling off of them ever since. I have been an avid student of, "True" horsemanship since 1998. I have competed in the American Ranch Horse Association and my horses have won numerous ribbons including, "Grand Champion." My goal with Serenity Horsemanship is to help you learn the fundamental reasons why horses do what they do and how you can learn to teach them to accept you as their steward and partner. My goal is not to finish the process because there is no end to good horsemanship.

About Lakishia:

When I was growing up, I had no idea about real horsemanship. I was raised to ride horses and not really put a lot of thought into the horses perspective. Tom took me in and introduced me to "true" horsemanship, ever since then I've been on a path to redemption. My new education has helped me in more ways than just horsemanship. I have begun to improve on my confidence as a person and grow into a leadership role for my equine friends. My goal is to help educate people about Serenity Horsemanship and help work on becoming the best you can be. I plan to gain more experience to help connect with people on a deeper level so they can make a change.
