Emily Jacobs is an equine educator.
Emily has spent more than seventeen years in professional horse training, management, and education industries. She improves equine welfare and performance.
Emily specializes in developing handy trail and pack horses. Her style is predominantly Western/ Vaquero, but she doesn’t limit her instruction to one discipline. At her clinics and in consultation, all backgrounds can benefit and are welcome. Her skill and caring instruction style create an atmosphere where students and horses gain confidence in their abilities.
Emily began interacting with horses when she was a baby and was an enthusiastic trail-rider by six. In her teens, she began managing herds and attending horsemanship clinics; she still attends clinics around the West taught by trainers and packers such as Buck Brannaman, Julie Goodnight, Joe Wolter, and Chris Eyer. Emily has also been under the wings of accomplished trainers and behavior experts like Sarah Matlock and Kristi Plutt. She is a lifelong learner. If a method is safe, effective, and compassionate, it gets added to her tool box.
