The Joy is in the Journey
We've found that the most motivated individuals, those who commit and get the greatest benefit, typically fall into one of three categories:
- Facilitators, Therapists, and Healers: You may be, or aspire to be a professional or volunteer that is looking to integrate relational attunement with horses into your work. You understand the transformative impact this can have on you, the horses, and potential clients.
- Horse Guardians: You may have your own horse and are seeking a more relational & compassionate approach. You are likely looking to boost or regain your confidence. You are ready to move away from traditional control based methods to a relational approach grounded in mutual respect and understanding.
- Horse Curious: You might be new or new-ish to the world of horses yet feel a strong calling to partner with them, possibly for personal and/or professional growth. You're likely seeking reliable, holistic, practical knowledge that integrates personal development with sound, relational horsemanship to ensure connection, safety, and confidence.
Does any of this sound familiar....
🌟 You may have struggled to find a community practicing this work in a credible way that actually resonates with you, even though you belong to at least 3 private FB groups.
🌟 You may have noticed 'shut-down' horses and want to be an advocate for them.
🌟 You likely appreciate a trauma informed perspective & a social justice lens, and want to bring that into your work with horses.
🌟 It's possible you've gone 'all-in' before but had a negative or even scary experience, and need to rebuild your trust and confidence.
🌟 Even though you see relational attunement as the way, it's been a struggle to find a method that clicks (or doesn't feel like a cult!)
🌟 You may have even been to a dozen clinics and/or trainers, some good and some not, but still struggle to retain and apply what you learned.
🌟 Have you noticed a lack of credible horsemanship in equine guided coaching/personal growth settings?
🌟 You might have spent up to 12 hours on YouTube or video libraries, and know you need more personalized support to actually implement the techniques.
🌟 You've probably had sincere questions or confusion, but didn't feel safe asking in whatever community you may have been in.
🌟 You might appreciate a female led perspective...
If two more of those resonate, you may have found your community!

👋🏼 About Us
Hi there, Victoria & Josh Here!
"The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery." - Mark Van Doren
At My Horse Journey, we believe horses open doors to greater joy and deeper connections. Embracing the art, science, and mysticism of horsemanship, our goal is to guide you to moments of profound realization and deeper bonds with horses.
Our Journey Together:
- A Lifetime of Learning: Combined, we've spent over 50 years diving deep into horsemanship, bodywork, and mindfulness. It’s been a journey of constant learning and refining what we know and how we teach.
Our Story
My Horse Journey emerged from our own transformative life experiences, including overcoming enormous challenges and living off grid with our free-ranging herd. These experiences brought us to a pivotal realization: attunement with horses comes through personal growth and self discovery.
Your Guides on This Journey:
- Victoria: Bringing 25 years of professional experience, including an apprenticeship in a world champion reined/cow horse program, Victoria has not only trained and ridden national and world champions but also has a wealth of experience in horsemanship instruction, and equine therapy co-facilitation.Currently, she is expanding her horizons by studying for a Masters in Social Work at Portland State University.
- Josh: With over 25 years of mindfulness teaching, professional bodywork, and expertise in Kinesiology, Biomechanics, and Exercise Science, he has crafted a unique approach to Equine BodyWork and mindfulness trainings for equestrians. When not working in My Horse Journey, you can find Josh pursuing his passion of Indian Classical Music.
We're huge fans of epic tales and adventures – think Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and Spiderman. These stories, where heroes 'Answer the Calling' to embark on journeys of self-discovery and unearth deep truths from within, resonate, and mirror the transformative journeys we facilitate in our programs.
We believe every student is the hero of their own story, uncovering truths and growing along the way!

‘May the Horse be with You!’
🌟 Start Your 7-Day Trial FREE!Merging Heart-Centered Care with Expert Horsemanship
Traditional paths often center dominance, leaving little room for curiosity or empathy. On the flip side, some heart-centered methods may miss crucial aspects of equine culture and language. 'My Horse Journey' bridges this gap, offering a credible, compassionate approach that elevates horse-human relationships.
Simplifying the Equine Care and Connection:
The multitude of horsemanship theories can be daunting. From equine communication to the nuances of handling and care, it's easy to feel lost. Our program cuts through the confusion, offering clear, effective guidance to help you navigate these challenges with confidence.
Discover Your Herd: A Passionate and Supportive Community
The equestrian world can sometimes feel exclusive and intimidating. 'My Horse Journey' offers a different experience - a welcoming community where questions are encouraged, and shared passion for horses unites us. Here, you'll find genuine connections, free from drama and judgement.
Overcoming Fear and Past Negative Experiences
Recovering from a negative experience with horses can be challenging. Our empathetic, safety-focused approach supports your healing journey, helping you rebuild trust and rediscover the joy and peace that horses bring.
Breaking Through Plateaus: Elevate Your Horsemanship
Every horse enthusiast encounters roadblocks, whether it's trailer loading issues or a sudden change in your horse's behavior. Our program provides you with the insights and strategies to overcome these hurdles, so that you and the horse are safer and have more fun!
Hear From Members
"The best outcome? I have the will to thrive in life, not just survive each day!"
It was an epiphany that the techniques I learned to make me a herd leader with horses instantly transferred to my life as a whole. It was a shocking realization that the calm, firm boundaries I set made me a better professor, better parent and motivated me to organize my household and my professional life. Who knew! I have re-awakened the former me that had confidence and efficacy in the world.
Rebecca Walker-Sand, PhD, Professor of Psychology
"This has guided me to realize I am capable of so much more than I often tell myself."
I feel like I have found the mentors and partnership I have been seeking forever to help guide my love and passion for horses. This truly is a soul journey!
I have so much gratitude and awe for you sharing your profound wisdom and experience with such grace and generosity.
