FULL SERVICE:
We offer many services at Sturgell's
Equestrian/Horse Training Center, including colt
starting, foundation training, reschooling older
horses,
riding lessons, boarding and sales.

Though our
specialty is putting a foundation on the
young horse, we also want to make sure you will be
safe and satisfied when you take your horse home. If
at all possible, we like to be able to "school" the owner
on his horse's new training before they take him home.

We  also offer riding lessons for the beginner and
novice in Western or English riding.

We take our time with your horses, giving them respect
and understanding and TRAINING that will last a life
time—that TAKES TIME. Please take a moment and read
over our
FOUNDATION TRAINING page for more
information on how SECLLC will train your horse. And,
if for any reason we can not get your horse trained to
the degree that you want, we will let you know-- not
keep sending you monthly bills.

explaining what his horse has
learned
This horse is learning to open and
close gates, an everyday task that all
horses should know.

“I just love your approach to it all. I don't want to take ----
anywhere else. I could honestly sit and listen and watch you
everyday if I could. Your knowledge is amazing to me. You
make it so simple to understand.” L.P. (repeat customer!)

“VERY HAPPY INDEED!!! we are soooo very pleased with
your work with both him and O---. Thank you so very much!!!!”

Here's a link to my very favorite horse trainer: Larry Trocha. He has a
newsletter you can subscribe to. This one below is
excellent:
"TRAINING INSANITY."
I highly recommend his DVD's also. You'll not find any more helpful
than these.
Foundation training is more than breaking the colt or
horse. It is a training process that is not rushed.
Think of it as building blocks for the future, just as
our children attend 12 years of school before
attending college. A horse trained with a good
foundation can easily go on for specialized training,
in either Western or English.

Realizing that each horse is an individual, we try very
hard to aim for the same goals in a "90 day period."
With a number of horses, it will take longer than 90
days to accomplish these goals, with a few, less. That
being said, our foundation
goal for 90 days will have a
horse that walks, trots, canters and stops easily. He
will have a good beginning in lateral movement and
two tracking (moving off your legs), and ridden in the
arena regularly. It will be up to the individual horse's
confidence and abilities that will determine how
much more "speciality" training and out of the arena
riding it will be exposed to in that time frame.
The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the Lord.
Proverbs 21:31
QH gelding @ 60 days training
Being located in beautiful rural middle eastern Oklahoma, Sturgell's Equestrian Center is naturally
accommodated with wonderful riding terrain. After the colt/horse is broke to ride, he will be
introduced to the hay fields, ditches, hills and logs in the woods near our home. He will also be
around four wheelers, a tractor, livestock and other things to help gain his confidence.
Please note, we do not have indoor riding facilities, so we kindly ask you
to schedule your training time so that all horses will be leaving SECLLC by
October 31.
Thank you.  We care, because you care.                 Happy Trails!
“After getting B---“ (back from Suzi) “I am even more impressed with Suzanne. If we had taken B--- first I would have expected a
transition period from "track mentality" back to "broke gelding mentality". When you feed and train a horse to perform at a (racing) level
you can't expect them to just snap out of it. Coming from her house, "broke gelding mentality" is where she had him at. We are
enjoying him and he seems to be a happy, healthy two year old.” M. (he came to me after being at the race track-- repeat customer!)

“Thanks Suzi for working with S---! I can tell a big difference in the way he responds. He is not as hyper, he pays attention, and he is
much easier to get into a gallop. He also reins a lot better. Plus, today we opened and closed the gate to the round pen while
mounted.” R.G. (Another repeat customer!)
