Macey comes from a background in showing Western and Hunter pleasure horses. She has over 20 years of experience working in the equine industry. She has won multiple Regional and National championships in the Morgan horse show circuit as well as USEF region horse of the year awards. In addition to competing in the Morgan show circuit, Macey has ridden with many top-level riders in dressage, trail, English and Western.
Although Macey’s background is in competitive riding her approach to horses and riders has been heavily influenced by her work in the equine assisted learning and therapy field. After graduating college with a BA in Sociology Macey attended trainings at the Gestalt Equine Institute of the Rockies. This was where Macey began to realize what a profound impact horses can truly have on humans if we let them. She went on to obtain her certification in Equine Facilitated Learning from The HERD institute®.
Macey’s approach in working with horses is a relational one. She believes horses want harmony and connection, and that any issues that arise in your horse are opportunities for the horse to be heard, and the human to listen and adapt. Macey acknowledges that Horses call us to our greatness and they offer us opportunities to grow, heal, and evolve as humans. She currently operates her business, True North Equine, at Sycamore Canyon Equestrian Center in San Dimas, CA. There she offers riding lessons, training, and equine facilitated leaning. She also works at Cal Poly Pomona where she coaches the Western show team.
Her focus is on developing relational horsemanship skills in the human and instilling confidence and trust in horses. Macey’s emphasis is on developing somatic awareness and mental clarity in the human. In the horses, she focuses on relationship building and connection. She can assist you in working on any issues you may have on the ground or in mounted work regardless of your discipline or experience. If you wish to deepen your understanding of yourself and your horse while achieving the relationship you have always dreamed of, contact Macey to set up a session or clinic.
