About Shanna
Specializing in Centered and Balanced Riding with emphasis on Resistance Free learning with the horse. Brighter Pastures is an inclusive facility where all ages and skill levels are accepted. Students will ride in western saddles, English saddles, and bareback. Our students learn proper form, rein aids, leg aids, seat aids, and vocal cues with a focus on proper muscle development.
We offer several different lesson horses with different abilities to help the riders advance through all levels of the program. Our lessons teach students from the ground up including haltering, tying, saddling, bridling, grooming, general care, and control. Riders have the opportunity to ride pattern work, barrels, poles, jumping, trails, and more!
We also offer many other Equine Assisted Services, Therapies, Growth, Learning, and Education. We specialize in life coaching skills using horses as facilitators for personal and emotional growth and development. We provide guidance for those dealing with a life crisis, trauma, grief, emotional and behavioral challenges, and more. We provide services to children, teens, adults, couples, and families.
At Brighter Pastures, we enjoy working with students of every age and skill level. Because our focus is on complete horsemanship using clear communication, body control, and mindset, we see a great transformation in our riders and those transformations spill over into their everyday lives from relationships to school to work.
Watching riders giggle when first trotting to soaring over their first jump to cantering fast barrel patterns to completing advanced leg and shoulder yields, the personal growth of each client and smiles for miles makes our work at Brighter Pastures worthwhile!
Early in her career, Shanna trained children to ride and show horses. This is where she witnessed the therapeutic benefits of horses and the large positive impact that horses had on their young riders. This reflected her own experience growing up, as horses had helped her deal with her own early childhood trauma and the ongoing stress and challenges of life.
Shanna started utilizing the therapeutic benefits of horses to help children and adults alike. This motivated her to found Brighter Pastures. This is her way to help all of those who seek a connection with horses as a way of personal growth, therapy, and healing. Shanna’s caring nature, deep connection and understanding of horses allow her to infer a client’s thoughts, needs and feelings without them saying a word. Shanna loves helping people through horses and hopes that she can help many more!
Shanna earned a Bachelor of Science in Equine Science with a minor in Early Childhood Education. This field of study allowed her to shape her future as an Equine Specialist who understands how to communicate with and teach her younger clients. After starting a family, Shanna earned a Master of Science studying Equine Reproductive Physiology. During her master’s work, she helped instruct undergraduate students in the fields of equine science, riding, and training. Shanna recently earned her Master Practitioner Life Coaching Certification specializing in neurolinguistics, Gestalt therapy, relationship work, transformation, and empowerment. Throughout her lifetime, Shanna has had opportunities to study under numerous clinicians and specialists including: NARHA, Monty Roberts, Sally Swift, John Lyons, Buck Brannaman, Pat and Linda Parelli, Craig Cameron, Clinton Anderson, Mark Rashid, Karen Rohlf, Richard Shrake, Greg Kertsen, and Ariana Strozzi.

Their expertise in centered and balanced horseback riding! I have developed more as a rider in 6 months with Shanna as my coach than I did in 3 years of riding at other barns. Shanna is an expert in her field, and always considers the comfort and experience of both the rider and the horse. This is the only barn that I will ever refer beginner, advanced or experienced riders to. Brighter Pastures has changed how I view horseback riding, and that knowledge has benefited me in all other aspects of my life.
