Intuitive Horsemanship that's Stress-Free
Greetings and welcome to the Hoofbeat Attunement website! My name is Matney Cook and I offer relationship based horse training, riding
lessons and horsemanship coaching that blend a variety of natural horsemanship techniques with Equine Facilitated Learning exercises. This
style of horse-human communication creates meaningful interactions that alleviate stress, develop authentic leadership and deepen self
confidence in both species simultaneously.
My goal is always to turn out confident horses and horse handlers that communicate fluidly and effectively in a multitude of environments
and activities. In doing so, both horse and rider more easily achieve their goals and will not only excel in their chosen field, but will
also have a more enjoyable experience all around.
Through my quiet and gentle training methods, I foster communication, trust and respect, the building blocks of a solid foundation.
My credentials include:
Master Trainer Certification with Ken McNabb 2007
Certified Instructor
of HEAL method 2009
PATH International Certified Therapeutic
Riding Instructor 2018
PATH International Certified Equine Specialist in Mental Health Learning 2019
