Testimonials

"Meg is a very happy and positive person. She is a breath of fresh air, undeniably contributing to the atmosphere, and is well loved by staff and clients alike. She carried out her duties with responsibility and enthusiasm, often self starting, and working long hours and many times 'on call' to support the smooth operation of the business. I have no hesitation in recommending Meg as a honest, conscientious, enthusiastic, highly skilled, and caring in her horsemanship, and I'm extremely hopeful she will join us again next season, and many more after if it is her desire.

Yours sincerely, Fanis Rouvas, Proprietor, Mykonos Horseland"

"Dear Perspective Clients of Megan/Tranquility Horsemanship,

I was lucky to find Megan through one of her on-line ads offering horse training, little did I know I would meet someone who would alter my relationship with horses forever.  This young woman has a natural gift for reading horses and people.  She assesses a situation, truly listens to the owner and works with the horse to support their natural way of learning, building confidence in them and strengthening their will to “try”.  She also helps the owner understand their equine friend and supports ways to build a “common language” with their horse.

Megan has helped me gentle two “untouched” 3 year-old horses, both are now trained and a delight to ride and be around.  One was exceptionally nervous and would flinch if anyone was near him, let alone touch him.  He is now an unflappable “puppy dog” always trying to please.  The other was a stallion and he was very certain he was in charge.  It took a bit of work but Megan supported him in becoming a wonderful mount.

I was in a horseback-ridding accident a few weeks into her training and had a severe back and head trauma.  It took a year to physically heal and then I had to recover from a new trauma – a fear of riding.  Megan patiently supported me during my slow recovery from this traumatic horse accident and helped me build the confidence to ride again.

She also conducted a small clinic at my barn.  Everyone who attended really enjoyed it!  They talked about how much they learned and how good Megan was at helping them communicate with their horse.

I wholeheartedly recommend Megan to gentle your horse, quiet a nervous horse, work out any glitches with your horse, help you create a confident horse, teach you to be a more confidant rider, learn how to do ground work with your horse that will translates to better communication in saddle, help with problem areas for your horse and supporting you in reach your equine goals.  

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions,

Anne (mom to 8 sweet horses), Founder of Art, Heart and Hoofbeats"

"Even though Megan’s training methods differs a lot from the Danish methods (both riding and groundwork wise) that I have been used to, Megan’s methods really gave me a new perspective to horse training and a better understanding of how to start up a and connect with a new horse.
Megan was not only really good at explaining why she does what she does, she also doesn’t just tell you how to do it, but also how not to do it, which for me was really helpful when learning about round-up for the first time or how she breaks in the young ones. Furthermore, she doesn’t just let you look and then expect you to know how to do it afterwards, she lets you try for yourself and then gently and not to mention very patiently guides you through it (Hint: I was not the greatest western rider).  And even though she might have to say it 100 times she never raises her voice or becomes irritated. Which makes you positive and excited about your next training session, even though things might not have gone amazingly in the last one. 
She is also very openminded to trying new methods, to find out what works the best for every horse and its rider/owner. And she is good at cooperating at a task and doesn’t mind changing her initial plan to fit what you want.
The only bad thing to add up Megan, is that she doesn’t wear a helmet…. But that just shows her level of bravery. Megan was never afraid or nervous about starting up a new horse, where I on the other hand could hardly watch without shaking on her behalf. This cool attitude and knowing that Megan did a hell of a job bomb-proofing the horse, however rubs off on you, when you then have to ride the horse, making you feel completely safe and unaffected.
Besides from that Megan is just a very amazing human being, who is not only a good horseman or teacher, but also an incredible inspiration. I got home from Greece excited to try out different groundwork methods with both of my own horses.
