Rooted in family. Built on horsemanship.

Three generations of experience. One shared passion. Whether you're brand new to horses or ready to compete, we meet you where you are.

Who we are

A mother and daughter's ranch, one legacy at a time.

Bloomquist Horse Training is run day to day by Michele and Hayley Bloomquist, a mother-daughter team with decades of horsemanship between them, alongside instructors they trust like Sonya Jahn. We believe the bond between horse and rider is built slowly, honestly, and with care, and we bring that philosophy to everything we do. From first-time riders to experienced competitors, our programs are designed to challenge, support, and inspire every person who walks through our gate.

Our mission & values

A legacy passed down, one ride at a time.

Horsemanship isn't something you can rush. It's built through patience, consistency, and a deep respect for the animal. That philosophy has guided the Bloomquist family across generations, and it guides every lesson we teach. We're not just training riders. We're building character, confidence, and a lifelong relationship with horses.
