with Afton Snider
“Consistant improvement is what I strive for with each horse I train. I build confidence by encouraging and rewarding a horse’s try with each exercise. When a horse has confidence they naturally excel and drive for more”
Afton Snider has had a love for horses since a young age. Her love affair has grown with her and is now her full time career. What started with her small town fairs has grown to traveling to multi-state competitions.
Afton has always helped her fellow riders improve their technique. This willingness to help others achieve their goals as a rider and with their horses has lead Afton to open her own training program.
Today Afton operates out of her own home. She will train foals from 2 years to adult. She is mindful of their ability and growth. Afton always puts the health and safety of the horse and rider first.
Afton holds a BS from Kansas State University in Feed Science and Management. She uses her education and continued learning to aid her in designing a feeding program for her and her clients horses that maximizes their performance.

Client Testimonials
“Afton is our go to person for starting our foals on the right path. We send ours to her at weaning to be desensitized and handled. By the end of the training our young foals are transformed and able to let ANY one handle them. Even our recent client’s 3 year old daughter!”
“We have known Afton nearly all her life and have watched her grow into a fine horsewoman. She does a good job training and provides excellent care. Very honest and trustworthy.”
“I use Afton for our rescue horses. She has the ability to listen to the horses, like I have never seen. No matter what trauma or past these guys come from, they find the confidence to lead them back as productive and able horses. She is an amazing trainer and coach.”
