About The Trainer
At the heart of Lasting Impression Horsemanship is a deep belief: every horse deserves to be understood, and every rider deserves to feel safe, supported, and empowered.
With over 25 years of hands-on horse experience, Janelle has worked with a wide variety of horses — from colts to seasoned show competitors — and riders of all levels. For the past 15 years, she has studied and practiced natural horsemanship, focusing on communication, trust, and biomechanics to create soft, willing partners both on the ground and under saddle.
Before launching Lasting Impression Horsemanship in January 2023, she worked as a licensed veterinary technician for 13 years, which gave her a deep understanding of equine health, soundness, and overall wellness. During that time, she trained and cared for her own horses as a dedicated hobby, blending feel, timing, and knowledge to shape the horse-human relationship.

Trainer’s Message:
For Janelle, your success with your horse matters deeply. While she can’t do the work for you, she’s here to guide, support, and challenge you every step of the way.
Her greatest reward is watching riders grow in confidence, communicate with clarity, and form real partnerships with their horses. That’s what drives her passion — helping people and horses truly understand one another
Her training approach always puts the humans safety first closely followed by the horse’s well-being. She treats every horse as if they were her own — and has an abundance of patience, respect, and consistency. Whether you're just getting started or preparing for the show ring, She is here to guide you and your horse through a clear, compassionate journey built on mutual respect and trust.
