“I lesson with David Becker weekly and have found remarkable results with my all-around gelding who is occasionally a difficult ride. David had the knowledge, understanding and horsemanship approach to help me better understand and ride my horse through his difficulties. I have tried multiple trainers but could not have had such immediate results if not for David’s help along the way. No matter what discipline I may ride, David always have insight and knowledge to help us progress”

“I’ve always wanted to ride horses, but was terrified of falling off and not sure if I could start as a 50-year-old with no experience! David helped me gain confidence on the ground with my horse and improve my all-around knowledge about horses. He showed me how to properly lead, lunge, blanket and care for my horse before I even got in the saddle. Now I’m riding, trotting, and learning to cantor, having fun and enjoying the process. David is a very patient and knowledgeable instructor with a lot of tools at his disposal to help you work through your issues.”
