HORSEMEN’ S YANKEE PEDLAR • 2010 EQUINE AFFAIRE SPECIAL EDITION16
> BIOGRAPHIES
Chris CoxChris Cox’s entire life has been influenced by his relationship with the horse. At the age of one, his family moved from Florida to an island off the coast of Australia to raise cattle. Isolation on the 100-mile island served as a catalyst for what would begin his lifelong journey into the mind of the horse.
At 18, Cox returned to America and began training Mustangs for the Bureau of Land Management, gave clinics, and began to create what has become his trademark program—a step-by-step progression of horsemanship skills for all levels.
Through the Chris Cox Horsemanship tele-vision show on RFD-TV and the national tour stops, Cox has touched the lives of many horsemen and women. Those who saw him win back to back championships at the Road to the Horse Colt Starting contests witnessed the effectiveness of his methods and his clear passion for horses.
Monty RobertsMonty Roberts, the world-renowned horse behaviorist and doctor of animal psychology, a featured clinician at Equine Affaire, will be demonstrating his depth of experience across many disciplines.
Roberts has won four world championships on legendary horses such as reining and cutting champion Johnny Tivio. In the racing industry, he trained Horse of the Year Lomitas, a stallion worth millions of dollars and Arc d’ Triomphes winner Alleged. He and his wife, Pat produced two-year-olds for the racetrack and led the industry in the production of just under 700 Thoroughbreds sold for sums that caused the
Roberts’ to lead the world in that industry for 18 years. Shy Boy, subject of documentaries, is the most famous Mustang ever, and he and Roberts are now enjoying their tenth year together.
Roberts is an international best-selling author, whose book The Man Who Listens To Horses, has sold more than five million copies around the world, an achievement never before seen in the world of professional horsemen.
His career to date has included over 1,500 demonstrations. These events have been held in 22 countries and have involved approximately 6,000 horses.
Julie GoodnightYou know Julie Goodnight as The Horse Master on her award-winning RFD-TV television show. Through her varied background—riding and training horses in dressage, jumping, racing, reining, colt-starting, versatility ranch work, and wilderness riding—Goodnight has discov-ered the underlying principles important to any type of riding. She teaches “Classic Skills for a Natural Ride” and communicates clearly with horses and riders in any discipline and at any level. Goodnight travels coast-to-coast—and beyond—throughout much of the year to help horses and riders at horse expos, conferences, clinics, and while filming for her television “makeover” show. Goodnight has been featured in top equestrian publications, including TheTrail Rider, and Horse & Rider—where she’s a member of Team Horse & Rider—and America’s Horse. Her syndicated columns appear in over 15 regional publications throughout North America. Her interactive websites: juliegoodnight.com, horsemaster.tv, and her pages on Youtube and Facebook reach an even wider audience.
Goodnight is also the Spokesperson for the Certified Horsemanship Association, a nonprofit organization that promotes safety and
excellence in horsemanship. In 2008 she was named Equine Affaire’s Exceptional Equestrian Educator—one of only three awards ever given. Goodnight resides near Salida, Colo., at her private horse ranch with her husband, Rich Moorhead, who manages Monarch Mountain ski resort.
Stacy WestfallEven as a young child growing up in Maine, Stacy Westfall loved horses and rode whenever she had the chance. She got her first pony, Misty, when she was six. Her mother Sherri was her only instructor in riding and training until she went to college at the University of Findlay in Ohio. Westfall studied under traditional-style training instructors including Steve Brown and Clark Bradley, and also worked for champion reining trainers Mike Flarida and Dan Huss. To all of the knowledge she learned from these mentors, she applied the “think-like-a-horse”

technique that had served her well in the past.
In 1994, while at the All American Quarter Horse Congress, Westfall met her future husband Jesse—also a talented reining trainer. They married three years later and then established the Westfall Horsemanship training facility in Mt. Gilead, Ohio. They have three young boys, Caleb, Joshua, and Nathan.
Like any good trainer, Westfall’s aim has always been to have the most clear and precise communication with her horse as possible. Her goal in her reining was to make the reins unnecessary. While others have approximated that goal, Westfall made it a reality. In 2003 she won the National Reining Horse Association Freestyle reining competition riding without a bridle or a neck rope. She has gone undefeated for two years straight in major freestyle reining competitions and in 2006 she won twice while riding bridle-less and bareback. In 2006 she entered the prestigious Road to the Horse colt starting competition, and was named the winner, after a convincing perfor-mance that clearly outshone her competitors.
Westfall continues to compete, start young horses and train, and tours the country offering clinics and making educational appear-ances at expos and other equine events. She is building the Westfall Horsemanship approach to create a program that is efficient and effective—with resources to compliment the clinics such as DVDs, equipment and an infor-mation-rich website.
Aaron RalstonBorn and raised on a family ranch in Western Colorado, Aaron Ralston learned what it takes to be a good cowhand at an early age. In his early years he competed in rodeos throughout Colorado and neigh-boring states. It wasn’t long before he started applying his skills to other
western disciplines and finding success in several arenas. At 32, Ralston is an accomplished reining and reined cowhorse competitor, and has participated in numerous events, shows, and clinics in the U.S. and abroad. Highlights of his career include earning first place in the 5K Novice Horse division at the 2009 NRCHA Circle Y Derby, 2007 and 2005 Denver Stock Show $15,000 Dodge Invitational Freestyle Reining Champion, and earning a Gold Medal in the Team Reining Finals at the 2006 World Equestrian Games in Aachen, Germany.
Denny EmersonEventer, trainer, coach, author, leader, and activist Denny Emerson has been a significant, influential force in the equestrian community for a half-century. Emerson has forged a career with horses which culminated in his receiving the USEA’s Wofford Cup for lifetime service to eventing, and included leadership in organizations span-ning the USEA (twice president), the USET (vice-president of eventing for seven years), the USEF (on the Executive Committee), and Chairman of the Breeder’s Committee of the AHSA.
Now in his 45th consecutive year of competing at the prelimi-nary level or higher, Emerson has achieved much success in the sport

of eventing. At 20, he rode in his first event, a preliminary three day event at GMHA. By 1965, Emerson had moved up to intermediate on Lighting Magic, his first event horse, and in 1971, he rode in his first advanced event on Cat, at Dunham, Quebec. Emerson’s advanced career would last for 29 seasons, during which time he brought 14 horses to that level, an average of about one advanced horse every two seasons.
Marlene McRaeMarlene McRae, one of the forerunners of women’s professional barrel racing, has excelled at every level of horsemanship in which she has performed, from showing Shetland ponies at age six to state 4-H Champion Horseman at age nine to World Champion in barrel racing as an adult. The titles and honors McRae has earned exemplify her dynamic talents, with a profes-sional competition record boasting multiple “fastest times” for National Finals Rodeo as well as two 1988 Olympic Gold Medals —an individual gold in barrel racing as well as a team gold as a member of the U.S. Olympic Rodeo Team.
Outside of the arena, McRae has served on the Board of Directors for the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association, been inducted into the Cowgirl Hall of Fame, and launched her own retail business, World Champion Designs. She shares her knowledge and talents by producing instructional videotapes and by traveling extensively to teach horsemanship and barrel racing at numerous clinics in the United States and as far away as Australia and New Zealand. McRae currently works out of Lone Tree Ranch in Ramah, Colo., and continues to travel and compete in order to stay current
in the minds of rodeo fans and to promote her sponsors and business ventures.
Brenda ImusBrenda Imus is one of the nation’s most recog-nized authorities on the naturally gaited horse. She conducts clinics throughout the United States and Canada, helping horse owners improve the quality and smoothness of their horse’s natural gaits without the use of arti-ficial training devices or methods. Imus has had articles and columns published in Western Horseman, Horse & Rider, Horse and Horseman, Trail Blazer, and The Gaited Horse.
Imus runs a very successful and heavily trafficked website, www.gaitsofgold.com, that thousands of people rely on for their gaited horse training information. Among the many products that Imus offers are her books, Heavenly Gaits and Gaits of Gold; Selecting, Fitting, and Training the Naturally Gaited Horse. She also produced a companion, Gaits of Gold training video. As an inventor, Imus designed the Giddy-Up Portable Mounting Stool. Her most successful endeavor, however, has been to design her 4-Beat saddle and other tack to help comfortably fit gaited horses.
Mary TrowbridgeMary Trowbridge began her professional eques-trian career in 1978 as an assistant at the famed Sir William Arabian farm under the tutelage of legendary horseman Bill Bohl, where she devel-oped a solid business-ethics strategy from which to move forward. Her early immersion into the world of Polish breeding has given her a base that she still draws on today.
In 1991, Trowbridge combined her talent with her husband Pat, and they opened their own business. As a team, the two bring an unparalleled, multi-faceted managerial prowess to their business on the farm that they purchased in 2004 from legendary Broadway and movie producer, Mike Nichols. Trowbridge heads the training and sales divisions of the business, overseeing the forty-plus horse training opera-tion, in conjunction with fellow horsewomen Lindsey Knight. She also oversees the services for the farms’ show clients and the large outside lesson program recently implemented.
The farm, located among the rolling hills of rural Southwestern Connecticut, is today one of the oldest on-going Arabian breeding and training farms in the country. Beginning in 1968 with Nichols’ purchase, the prop-erty has been home to cutting-edge Arabian breeding, importations, and training for over four decades.
Trowbridge currently serves as Immediate Past President of the Arabian Professional
and Amateur Horsemen’s Association, and as President of The Horsemen’s Distress Fund, a crisis fund for Arabian horsemen in need. She is also a Level I and Large R Arabian judge, and has judged horse shows across the United States and Canada, as well as in Europe, including the Youth National Championship Horse Show, the Canadian National Championship Horse Show and the Australian National Championship Horse Show, along with countless Regional and Class A shows each year.
Betsy SteinerAmerican World Championship team member Betsy Steiner began riding at the age of 13. Her first horse was an unruly Palomino mare named Zsa Zsa. Although three-day eventing first drew Steiner into the competitive arena, it was a year at Christilot Boylen’s barn that cemented her devotion to dressage.

> BIOGRAPHIES
An unquenchable desire to immerse herself in dressage led Steiner to spend more than two years in Germany with Egon von Neindorff. It was the endless lunge lessons there that Steiner credits with developing her seat. In the years since her first Grand Prix at the age of 20, Steiner has enjoyed working with such lumi-naries as Uwe Steiner, Herbert Rehbein, Robert Dover, Kathy Connelly, Guenter Seidel and Klaus Balkenhol.
During Steiner’s career, she has successfully trained many horses to Grand Prix including Attache, Special Delivery, Ortac, Komtur, Unanimous, Metternich, and Hilltop’s Giotto. A USDF Bronze, Silver, and Gold medalist, Steiner has numerous FEI wins, and represented the United States at the World Equestrian Games in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1990 aboard her own Dutch Warmblood, Unanimous. From May 2001 - June 2002, Steiner dominated the dressage arena with Rainier, and in 2002, the duo were top contenders at the trials for the World Equestrian Games when they expe-rienced a debilitating setback when Rainier sustained an injury and the partnership ended.
Steiner is currently delighted to be training and showing several lovely horses belonging to Sonia Zugel as well as Findlay’s Titaan. While
teaching, training, and competing, Steiner also maintains an active interest in the promotion of dres-sage: she served as the equestrian representative on the Athlete’s Advisory Council to the U.S. Olympic Committee from 1992-1994, was chairman of the Active Competitor’s Committee from 1992-1999, and has served on the USET Dressage Committee for a 10-year period.
Steiner has provided commen-tary for videos of the 1995 World Cup, the 1996 Olympic Games, and Dressage at Devon in 2001. She has authored numerous educational articles for top eques-trian periodicals including Practical Horseman and Dressage Today. Her book, A Gymnastic Training System Using the Mind, Body, Spirit, Approach has sold over 16,000 copies in the U.S. and U.K., and is currently being translated into German.
Steiner’s endless desire to improve her own riding as well as her student’s through cross-training has led her to the development of EQUILATES—a sport-specific Pilates-based
exercise and body awareness program for the equestrian. The first official Equilates studio will open at the new Lake Erie College riding facility and Equilates classes will be offered as part of the college curriculum.

In 2005, she trained and quali-fied the pony who won the Gold Medal at the World Pony Championship in England. She is internationally known as one of the best clini-cians and trainers in the world. Along with her passion for carriage driving and breeding driving ponies, Seaton enjoys traveling with family and friends and spending a lot of quiet time at Shepherd’s Purse, what she calls, “the most serene place on earth.”

and breed some of the nation’s top Quarter Horses, making their living exclusively in the horse industry for more than 30 years. Their multi-World Champion AQHA stallion, Good Cowboy Margarita, is the 2009 NSBA Horse of the Year.
With over 75 World and National Championship ApHC Titles, Gollehon is a member of the AQHA Professional Horseman’s Association as well as a member of Team Horse & Rider with her expertise appearing frequently in Horse & Rider magazine. She is a horsewoman and clinician specializing in western pleasure and is recognized internation-ally for the creation of her Yearling Head Start Program.

Christine DrentwettBorn in 1972 in New York, Christine Drentwett began riding at the age of eight. At age 13, Drentwett started competing in the jumpers and qualified for the Medal Maclay. When she turned 18, her family moved to Orlando, Fla., and she began riding for Mark Miller at his world famous horse show, Arabian Nights. During her six years with the show, she went through training in trick riding, circus bareback riding, dressage, trick training, stunt work, and performance of liberty horses.
In 1997, Drentwett was hired by Europe’s biggest traveling horse show, Der Zauberwald, which challenged Drentwett to train and perform Baroque breeds, including Friesians and Andalusians. She intensified her dressage studies with great German trainers such as Sabine Schut-Kery, Stephanie Meyer-Bliss, Thorsten Huesken, Britta Rasche, Fritz Kruemmel, and Dutch Friesian specialist Cor deJong.
Drentwett had now developed the abilities to train horses for competition, as well as alter-native movements for exhibitions such as the
Spanish walk, bowing, laying down, sitting, rearing, high trot, and liberty.
In the summer of 2006, Arabian Nights offered Drentwett the position of Head Trainer. For the next two and a half years she was in charge of training all of the horses and riders involved in one of the biggest shows in the world. She was constantly developing new acts and routines for the show while also performing.
Drentwett and her husband Tobias currently run Paradise Farms in Clermont, Fla., which Drentwett uses as her homebase
from where she keeps venturing out into the world of horses.

locally for a riding instructor while taking care of her beloved, backyard horse Brandy. It was during this time that her view of being, and working with horses began to shift, motivating her to seek a more harmonious way to work with them and communicate her requests when training and working.
Rider’s craving for more knowledge led her to seek out many different philosophies on horsemanship, levels of consciousness and spirituality. In her late twenties, she directed much of her creativity and ambition towards her own graphic design business. She enjoyed building the business through strong commu-nity ties and relationships. Within the first two years, she was able to hire her first employee, her husband, Eric. Her love for learning and sharing her knowledge with others led her to speaking engagements and lectures throughout the D.C. Metropolitan Area on topics ranging from “Starting Your Own Business—Taking that Leap of Faith,” to “How to Authentically Live in the Marketplace.”
It wasn’t until her mid-thirties that Rider was able to support her enthusiasm for horses and re-enter the equine industry, specifically the very well publicized world of Natural Horsemanship. She felt a kinship to the teach-
ings of many of the well-known and leading clinicians and spent much of her time absorbed in their practices while cultivating her own style and approach. Through her years of experience, she is able to connect people with their horses so that they too can experience more connec-tion, confidence, empowerment, fulfillment, joy, partnership, harmony, and oneness.
Joe ForestJoe Forest has been the owner and trainer at Horton’s Farm, based in Grantham, N.H., since 1972. He has started many young horses that went on to win national titles later in their careers. He works with all breeds and competes in the hunters and jumpers while coaching equitation. Forest coached the Colby Sawyer College Team to win the nationals twice and to the national reserve champion title twice. He is most well-known for his system for starting young horses, which repeatedly and reliably produces well-trained, confident horses. Forest’s instructional video, Training the Three Year Old: The First Thirty Days, details his process, which includes longe-lining, free jumping, and starting under saddle. His philosophy for training is to allow each horse the time to learn at their own pace and focusing on a solid foundation of basic skills. “A well-trained horse has had time to learn.”
Steve EdwardsSteve Edwards has had 33 years of experience educating and training mules and horses, their riders, and the general public about commu-nication in mulemanship and horsemanship. His instructional videos cover a wide variety of topics including mule and horse training, mule packing, longe-lining, and driving. Edwards is also an Adjunct Instructor of Equine Science at Pierce College in California. He has won the Arizona State Long Driving Championship and earned the World Championship: Over age 40 in Diamond and Box Hitch, Diamond
Hitch and Pack Scramble. Edwards is currently a professional clinician, expert lecturer, event judge, and equine consultant.
Daniel StewartDaniel Stewart teaches seminars and clinics at equestrian facilities and associations around the world. The majority of his clinics encompass rider biomechanics (by video tape analysis) during the day and equestrian sport psychology seminars and rider balance and fitness workshops in the evening. Stewart grew up as a hunter and jumper and competed internationally for many years. For the past 10 years he has been teaching riding clinics and equestrian sport psychology seminars to approximately 2,500 riders per year. In addition to being a veteran rider and trainer, Stewart holds a degree in Exercise Science with a minor in Sport Psychology. He has been able to combine his riding expertise with his knowl-edge of the human body and mind to write an internationally published book on rider fitness and psychology, titled Ride Right. He has also developed the “Stable Board,” an equestrian balance board used to help riders improve their balance, symmetry, posture, body awareness, coordination, stamina, and suppleness. Stewart currently divides his home between southern California and Andalusia, Spain, and has taught riders from all international USET teams. He is presently working on his upcoming second book.
