Elsa Sinclair is a horse trainer from the Pacific Northwest of the United States who brings a unique and powerful perspective to the horse world. From a family of horse trainers, she experimented with many different styles of horsemanship until she stumbled on a question that needed exploration: What if horses were given a choice? Would they let us ride them? Without force or tools to control and without bribes to lure them? The question led to a project, the journey of one wild mustang off the range, Myrnah, a horse with her own mind, strength, and sense of independence. One trainer, no tools, just body language. What started as simple questions, birthed the movie Taming Wild, an online course for those interested in learning Freedom Based TrainingⓇ, and a following of people who seek their own answers in what it takes to work more collaboratively with horses. What does it take to truly work together in freedom?

It has been my dream to help empower equestrian women to the next level of their life. We can all use a leg-up in life and we can all benefit from accountability and coaching. As the saying goes, the best ability is accountability. My life has been dedicated to coaching women. Now it is solely devoted to coaching equestrian women. In my life I have benefited greatly from mentors and coaches. My mentors have helped me grow personally, professionally, and financially. I also know that not everyone can afford private personal coaching. I struggled mightily to have coaches and mentors, however, every time I invested in myself it always proved to be the best investment I could make. I invite you to join me and some of the most amazing women. Our exclusive community is life changing, and this my deepest wish for you, to Live A Life You Love.
