Karen Young has been dedicated to educating young riders for over 20 years.
Owning and showing Welsh ponies began as a teenager and has never ebbed.
After receiving her BA Degree, Karen started training Paint Horses, in addition to training
ponies and giving lessons, full time at ZW Ranch. |
| The 1990's were very successful. Several students were
awarded YEAR END High Point Awards, not to mention Show Division High Points and Class
Championships in English, Hunters, Western, Trail, Short Stirrup, Lead Line and Walk-Trot,
plus numerous Halter Championships. |

The common thead in training each discipline is a strong foundation in Classical Dressage.
Although I don't show much in the Dressage arena, I use the principles and theories of several great
Classicists. Horses and ponies are developed naturally, without gimmicks. Riders are started
on a lunge line and often return to the lunge line to improve the seat.
I treat each horse and pony as an individual and find the right discipline for that individual so
they will have long happy healthy performance lives. |
