Welcome to the Foundation Reining Training Centre with your host Susan Dahl, - a trainer, coach, published author, clinician, writer and competitor.
Hello. I've been a reining trainer and exhibitor for almost 2 decades. 2012 will be my 20th year! To give you an idea of how long I've been in reining, my NRHA (National Reining Horse Association) number is 834! I know that NRHA's membership numbers are well over 70,000!
Hello. I've been a reining trainer and exhibitor for almost 2 decades. 2012 will be my 20th year! To give you an idea of how long I've been in reining, my NRHA (National Reining Horse Association) number is 834! I know that NRHA's membership numbers are well over 70,000!
2008, Jan. 6th to be exact, I gave up my non-pro card and became a professional trainer and coach again.
2008 has been an exciting year for me with lots of new students and horses in for training. I was also priviledged to give reining demos at the 2008 International Plowing Match in Teeswater, Ontario.
Reining is such an exciting sport! See NRHA.com and Reining Canada for more information.
And to me.... training all types of horses using body control & reining fundamentals is even more exciting!
And to see students advance their skills & knowledge with my classical and aussie natural horsemanship I call reinersue horsemanship using reining fundamentals is very rewarding.
Over the years I have worked hard -studying, learning, showing, trial&error, attending clinics, coached by professionals to develop a personal program that works for me. This is a never ending process for which I feel passionate about.
On this website, I will share with you that advice & information which I also share with my students: horse & human.
"It's my personal spin on things."
We will explore the big picture about what it is like to be a better horseperson through reinersue (classical & aussie natural) horsemanship using body control, reining techniques &exercises. (I'm currently writing a step-by-step lesson manual on body control foundation training using reining techniques).
This can be applied to any horse, any discipline, any event as it serves to create an excellent foundation for you & your horse.
Both you & your horse will become a better team: better rider & better trained horse which is a blessing.
This is definitely my passion that I want to share with you! Obviously it involves horse& human psychology, horse&human philosophy & horse&human behaviour.
I hope you enjoy & share your thoughts & experiences with me & all of us here so we all learn together!
For more information on my very different and innovative, fun approach to training, lessons and coaching, please contact me at reinersue@hotmail.com.
Information package available. Thumbs up for learning!

Hi Sue ... I'm very glad your dream is coming true for you ....you have worked very hard and the rewards should be plentiful ...
Thanks. I hope so.
It's not been easy at all.
Hi there Sue, About 18 months ago I began riding again after a 20 year hiatus. It took a while to get my body and brain to adjust! I attended a natural horsemanship clinic and found a whole new world and way of thinking:) I found your site and found links to Clinton Anderson, Larry Trocha, and others and have since, learned so much and have bought a beautiful quarter horse from Manitoba. He's an amazing 3 year old...so steady minded and easy to train. My question for you is, can you help me bring some reining into eastern ontario??!! There does not seem to anything in this area (or maybe I'm not looking in the right spots). Can you help? I would love to see this sport promoted here. I'll never be a superstar but would really enjoy sharing this with others who may fall in love with the idea like I have. What do you think?
Hi Compeau.j,
There is a lot of reining in eastern Ontario. There is also a ton of reining in Quebec.
I would give Harvey Stevens a call. He's in Indian River, Ontario.
You can find his info on the ORHA website: www.orha.on.ca under trainers.
And welcome to the great sport of reining!
Susan
Hi,
I was wondering if you could help me out? I'm looking for a western/reining barn in the Guelph area. Your link was sent to me by a friend of mine, however your facility is too far from where I live. If know know of any good boarding places please let me know. Thanks for your help!

Hello AT,
I don't know of a western barn in Guelph as I haven't lived there in quite some years. I used to board in Freelton at Double J Farms when I lived in Guelph.
Good luck.
