 Natalie Hagler: A Journey to Confidence and Connection with Horses

Growing up as a horse-crazy girl, Natalie Hagler’s passion for horses began early. From collecting toy horses to trying disciplines like reining, vaulting, and eventing, her love for the equestrian world blossomed. While English disciplines, particularly jumping, remained her favorite, a series of serious riding accidents shook her confidence.

Determined to overcome her fears, Natalie discovered Clinton Anderson’s training program, The Method, through her mom. Captivated by its emphasis on safety and partnership, she immersed herself in learning the techniques. Inspired, she pursued training with a Method Ambassador and eventually joined Clinton Anderson’s Clinician Academy.

 Now a Clinician Academy Graduate, Natalie is passionate about helping others build trust and confidence with their horses. She uses her experience to assist horse owners facing challenges similar to her own, ensuring both rider and horse develop safe, willing partnerships. Her dedication reflects her deep desire to share Clinton’s program and reignite a love for horses in others.
