Where true horsemanship from the ground up is taught
Where connection and partnership between humans and horse are created

Founded on the belief that every horse deserves a forever home where they are loved and appreciated, Oregon Horsemanship has grown into a full horsemanship program and sanctuary to help support the horses in our care. When people ask where we get our horses, we like to say, “They find us.”

Our horses come from a variety of backgrounds—sometimes carrying both physical and emotional scars—but here, they find understanding, compassion, and a community that embraces them. At our barn, patience, love, and kindness are offered in abundance to both horses and people.

From the very beginning, we discovered something special: when we foster the bond between horses and people—especially children and their families—others begin to share in our passion. Our program blends riding lessons with groundwork, relationship-building, confidence development, life skills, partnership, community, horse care, and so much more.

Not every horse we welcome can take on a “job,” but each one receives the highest level of care for the rest of their lives. Our facility is a soft place to land, filled with the smell of hay, the crunch of carrots, warm hugs, and the love of many.

 

From the Hearts of Our Community

Lives Touched, One Horse and One Human at a Time

“My overall experience was incredibly meaningful and grounding. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed, supported, and open to whatever the day would bring. It was both peaceful and transformative.”

Woman’s  Workshop Participant

“I am so happy I found this barn. Not only are the trainers Latitia and Alyssa clear in instructions, but they are also super friendly, knowledgeable, and genuine. The atmosphere is kind and friendly, and the horses are well cared for and loved by both the staff, volunteers, and lesson goers. The property is gorgeous! :

“My daughter has been taking lessons for almost a year. I have seen her change over the last year to a more confident girl. It has reflected in her school work and how she is at home. She loves these horses and the staff, and they are wonderful with her.”

I was looking for pure heart and soul bonding and compassion between a horse and rider, and I have found that here. Leticia and her crew have created this beautiful space full of compassion and loving energy and I am SO HAPPY I found them. Thank you!
