WILSON
“I was drawn to reining because of the detailed specifics involved in both the training process and the finished horse. Reining is an extension of horsemanship - with power steering and power brakes." - CW
At its foundation, every horse needs to Go, Turn, and Stop. Reining takes those fundamentals and develops them to an extreme level of precision. When done well, it represents the highest level of communication, responsiveness, and detailed horsemanship.
There is a tremendous amount that goes into properly training a horse, especially a reining horse.
Corey has focused on reining and performance horses since graduating from college, and has spent more than 27 years developing horses and helping riders better understand the process.
TEAM WPH MEMORIES
HORSE TRAINING | SHOWING | COACHING
WPH is a focused program built around developing finished horses and confident riders. Training emphasizes feel, precision, responsiveness, and a strong foundation - progressing each horse toward its individual potential.
Showing is an extension of the training program, giving horses the experience and preparation to perform in the show pen. Coaching is tailored to the horse and rider, creating a clearer understanding of how to communicate, improve, and perform together.
DEVELOP | BUILD | IMPROVE
Corey's teaching is built around three things:
DEVELOP.
Develop a solid foundation, clear communication, and the skills a horse needs to progress.
BUILD.
Build on that foundation through consistency, repetition, and thoughtful progression.
IMPROVE.
Identify what needs to improve and make the adjustments necessary to help both horses and riders continue moving forward.
These principles create a better understanding of how and when to apply techniques and exercises - not just to make a horse perform, but to develop a horse and rider that understand one another.
Corey recognizes that every owner and rider has different goals. Whether the goal is showing, improving as a rider, developing a young horse, or simply becoming a better horseman, his approach is centered on helping each horse and rider progress from where they are.
For more than 27 years, Corey has coached and taught horsemanship and reining skills to Non Pros, Youth riders, and clinic participants. His straightforward teaching style and easy manner of communicating make complex concepts easier to understand while keeping the focus on one thing: better horsemanship.
