Dev Branham

Dev has been training and teaching Hunter/Jumper horses and riders for the past 17 years and has been working with world renown horseman Mark Rashid as a student instructor since 2018. While having a successful early career, Dev felt there was something missing in his work and that there was more he could be offering to his horses and students. Eight years ago, Dev discovered Mark’s horsemanship and began studying with him, diving headfirst into the concepts of principle based horsemanship. So began a journey where Dev came to understand that good horsemanship comes from internal development and the principles that guide our lives, not through the tack we use or the how-to manuals we read. Through mindful understanding of the horse and situation, awareness of our internal feel, and consistent clarity we are able to offer our best selves to our horses and the world around us. With this offering we develop the relationship and trust necessary to receive all the horse has to offer in return. Dev is excited to share this mindful and principle-based approach to horsemanship to help you and your horse along your journey to a soft, trusting, and more fulfilling relationship.
