About
I have a unique and effective teaching style. I teach the "why's" not just the "how's". I am a low pressure, patient instructor. I structure your lessons to fit your needs - what you want to learn, how much time you want to take to get there.

I have only worked with Karen for about a month now but I am so impressed. I came back to riding after a long time off as a very rusty re-beginner. her human communication and coaching knowledge are clear, professional and caring. Her horse knowledge is way above par and I am learning from her each time. I am very pleased and would highly recommend her and her lesson horses.

Wow! Not only did I discover that I COULD sit on and ride a horse, but I learned more than I could have imagined about horses from Karen Bragg. Clearly her ability to TEACH left a profound impression on me. She made it educational, comfortable and FUN!.

Karen is an excellent teacher, she is patient, funny and is extremely knowledgeable. I've learned more in 3 lessons then I have in 3 years (when I was a teen w/other instructors). She explains how things work, why horses do what they do, not just tell you "kick", you understand why you are using a certain bridle or why you need to use certain equipment. I would HIGHLY recommend Karen to anyone looking for an amazing teacher.

Karen is a very experienced and knowledgeable teacher - very easy to understand and supportive. She has an excellent eye and knows just what needs work. She expects the rider to listen and execute. I am a rider who is extremely rusty but Karen did not "coddle" me. I appreciate her skills and look forward to more lessons in the future.
