Advice for aspiring horse trainers and horse riding instructors from low-income families?
I really want to be both a horse trainer and a horse riding instructor, however, I come from a low-income family who can't afford horses, pickups, trailers, a farm house, or anything of that sort. I'm currently a senior in high school who plans on going to college for Equine Management, however I'm not quite sure if I'll be able to have the career I truly want because I was born into a low-income family and will have a hard time paying for these things, including college itself. Are there any horse trainers and/or riding instructors that you know of (or if you're one yourself) that came from a low-income family and is now a horse trainer and/or a riding instructor? Are there any grants specifically for students going into equine related majors? If you're a trainer and/or an instructor, what steps did you take to get where you are today? Thank you! #career #college-major #equine #horse #horsetrainer #horseriding #horseridinginstructor
What would be the best college for horse trainers and horse riding instructors?
I've been accepted into an Iowa community college recently for Equine Management, however I'd like to look at some other options also. I live in South Dakota currently, and I would prefer to stay close to South Dakota in case something happens and I need to come back home. Where did you go to college? Did you go to college at all? If so, do you feel that what you've learned there helps you in your day-to-day job with horses? Thank you! #horse #equine #horseriding #horseridinginstructor #horsetrainer
Where would be the best area to live in to work as a horse trainer and a riding instructor?
I currently live in South Dakota, but I plan on going to college in Iowa for Equine Management. Would Iowa be a good place to work in for training and instructing? If not there, what other areas would bring me the most clients and would be good environment-wise? (weather, terrain, etc.) I would prefer to stay close to South Dakota, but I'm willing to go farther if I need to. Thank you! #horse #equine #horseriding #horseridinginstructor #horsetrainer
Is there a high demand for horse trainers and horse riding instructors?
I'm a senior in high school, and I have been accepted into a community college for Equine Management. I would like to be a horse trainer and a horse riding instructor. Before I decide whether to stay with that major or not, I would like to know if I'll be able to find a job quickly after I graduate, and be able to provide for myself with these jobs. #equine #horse #horsetrainer #horseridinginstructor #ridinginstructor
