John’s Story:

John started riding horses at the age of six and he was always riding growing up. He attended Pony Club and competed in Gymkhanas from a young age. In his teens he did camp drafting and show jumping and then in his late teens he had a break from horses and did an apprenticeship. John started riding again in his early twenties. In the early days, and still now he admires Ian Francis and Mick Connelly.

John’s natural training talent became apparent not long after he started competing in Reining in 1993 and it wasn’t long before he was placing and winning at State and National Shows as a non-professional. It was obvious that John had a talent for Reining and an affinity with horses.

As of 2016, John has spent the last 23 years competing in Reining and training horses professionally for the public for 19 years. Every year John is more determined than ever on achieving greater success with his career.
