Description
Betsy Vonda is an Equine Postural, Performance, & Behavioural Consultant and Trainer.
Although raised with horses her entire life, Betsy went on to pursue a career as a paramedic. However, through her education and work experiences she began to see parallels between troubled people and horses. She learned that people’s actions and behaviors can be heavily influenced by their past experiences, living conditions and nutrition, and it became quite clear that horses are also influenced by the same.
Betsy believes that by better understanding the factors that influence our horse’s behavior, we have endless opportunities to overcome challenges and set our horses up for a balanced and successful life.
