FAQ that we are asked by new students: why don’t you offer group lessons and only provide one-on-ones?

At PB Performance Horses, we believe that quality horsemanship starts with safety, individualized instruction, and giving every horse-and-rider team the attention they deserve. While group lessons can be a great social experience, they aren’t always the most effective environment for learning and improving, especially when it comes to developing strong riding fundamentals.

Here’s why we choose to focus on individual lessons:
🩵Safety comes first. Having too many horses moving in an arena at once creates additional risks, distractions, and opportunities for accidents. We want our riders to feel confident and safe while learning.

🩵Your instructor’s attention matters. When an instructor is managing multiple horses and riders simultaneously, their attention is naturally divided. Individual lessons allow us to focus on your position, your timing, your horse’s response, and the little details that make a big difference.

🩵 Progress happens through personalized instruction. Every horse and rider is different. What works for one team may not work for another, and your lesson should reflect your individual goals, strengths, and areas for improvement.

🩵 There’s more time to ask questions and understand the why. Riding isn’t just about getting in the saddle and doing the exercise. It’s about understanding why we do things, discussing what you’re feeling, asking questions, and learning how to think independently as a horseman.

Our goal isn’t simply to get you through a lesson. It’s to help you become a more knowledgeable, confident, capable rider who understands their horse and can apply what they learn outside of the arena, too. We would rather invest in the quality of your education than the quantity of riders in the arena. Your progress, your safety, and your partnership with your horse matter to us. We want to see you succeed! 🤩

Any other questions you would like to see answered? 🤠

We are so proud to announce that PB Performance Horses is officially partnered with Professional’s Choice! Lead Trainer Payton was chosen by the Professional’s Choice brand to represent as a “Professional Horseman.” Payton has been using Professional’s Choice products since she started rodeoing in 2014. From cinches, to SMB boots, to saddle pads, to bits, Professional’s Choice is Payton’s go-to for all horse related products.
​
Frequently used in our program’s tack room, Professional’s Choice items can be seen on every saddle. Our favorite cinches are the fleece (or neoprene) contoured venTECH cinches in 28” and 30”. We also use their bell boots, splint boots, and new “STRIKE” boots for every ride!

Thank you Professional's Choice for letting us be a part of your journey! 💪🩵

Team PB is so proud of our girls Bella and Candy for not only running their first jackpot together last weekend, but also winning their first check! 🤩🤠

After needing to make some changes during finals, we adjusted and came up with a new game plan. Breezey poo had to sit out this one, so little sister Candy got to come play! Bella did an incredible job jockeying a new horse and showed her true competitor skills.

We are so blessed with the best lesson horses that know when to step up and truly love their job. Thank you Bella & family for taking such good care of our girl! 🩵 Great job, and see you at the next one! 💪

PS swipe to see a baby Candy picture!

We do not just teach people how to ride a horse. We build responsible horsemen and horsewomen. There’s a difference between learning to ride a horse once a week and learning what it actually takes to become a confident horse owner.

At PB Performance Horses, our program is focused on riders who want more. More knowledge. More independence. More responsibility. More understanding. 🤓💪

We believe the goal isn’t just to teach you how to sit in the saddle, but to equip you with the skills and confidence to eventually own, care for, train, and manage a horse. This means we hold our students to a higher understanding for learning horsemanship beyond the arena. Our students learn to understand horse behavior, develop feel and timing, build problem-solving skills, and take on the responsibilities that come with owning a horse.

One day, you may have a horse of your own. We want you to be prepared for more than just riding it. Our goal is to develop well-rounded horsemen who can think independently, make educated decisions, and build successful partnerships with their horses.

If you’re looking for a program that goes beyond the weekly riding lesson and invests in the horseman you’re becoming, you’re in the right place. Reach out to learn more about joining the PB Performance Horses community!! 🤠🩵

When times are tough or s**t hits the fan, life shows you who is really in your corner.

For example, putting on a race or competition of any size (I may speak from experience). There are a million moving pieces, unexpected challenges, long preparation, and moments when you realize just how much goes into making something happen. In the middle of it all, you get a pretty clear picture of the people around you. You see who follows through on what they said they would do, who shows up when they said they would, who steps in when “oopsies” happens, and who supports you even when they can’t physically be there.

This applies to so much more than just putting on a race. It applies to business, friendships, relationships, and every season of life when you’re working toward something that matters to you. It’s easy to say you support someone when everything is going well. It’s much more difficult to actually show up when things get hard, plans change, or someone needs you to follow through.

Life happens to all of us. Nobody can be everywhere or do everything, and genuine support doesn’t always look like physically showing up. Sometimes it’s a phone call, a thoughtful message, keeping your word, offering a helping hand, or simply making an effort when you know someone has a lot on their plate.

At the end of the day, actions speak louder than words. You can verbally tell people you’re in their corner all day long, but eventually, your actions will tell the real story. Pay attention to the people who show up, appreciate the people who follow through, and be mindful of whether you’re giving others the same kind of support you hope to receive. 🥰

I am so extremely thankful for those of you in my corner. You know who you are! 🩵

What a weekend! Although I aim for my focus to never be on the money and prizes, it still is pretty fun to bring home some goodies! 🤩

Our competition team brought home over $5,500, 10 drag prize wagons, 3 buckles (one is already on a belt!), new trailer cameras, and so much more swag. We are so lucky to be able to do what we love, win some super cool prizes, hang with our friends, and give back to our community.

Mental health is no joke and it is so important to support those around you. Nolan Watters Memorial’s slogan of “love and be loved” hits home so deeply. I hope all of you know that you are loved, you are worthy, and you belong. 🩵

Meet the Team: Instructor Edition! 🩵🤠

Meet Miranda, our newest addition to the PB Performance Horses team, Beginner Horsemanship Instructor!

With a lifelong passion for horses, Miranda has been riding since the age of 3 and is the proud owner of 6 horses, and one little donkey (Hashbrown 🍳)! Horses have always been a huge part of her life. She is passionate about sharing that love with the next generation of riders.

Miranda specializes in western riding and has experience across multiple disciplines, including western pleasure, ranch riding, english equitation, and speed events. As a barrel racer herself, she understands the dedication, patience, and partnership it takes to develop a confident rider and a willing, capable horse.

Beyond the saddle, Miranda is a registered veterinary technician with a strong background in animal health and care. She is currently attending school with the goal of becoming a performance equine veterinarian, combining her passion for horses with her commitment to their health, wellness, and performance.

Miranda is excited to help new riders build confidence, develop a strong foundation in horsemanship, and create meaningful partnerships with their horses.

If you see her around the barn, don’t hesitate to say hello! 🩵

Nolan Watters Memorial Barrel Race 2026 is in the books🩵

This race means so much to our team as mental health has an impact on every single one of us. On top of this race being a su***de awareness fundraiser, October is also Anti-bulling Month. You never know what someone is going through, so always make sure to be kind and supportive no matter what. It never takes away from you to be supportive of someone else. 🩵

I had so much fun watching our team not only kill it in the arena, but also be genuine and encouraging to each other. Two of our girls were not on their usual mounts, and they both CRUSHED it jump jockeying! 💪 We are so thankful for everyone involved.

Here is to one of my favorite races of the year and knowing that each and every one of you belong! 🥰
