At JW Horsemanship & Services, we do horse and human things differently. We believe that horsemanship includes skill in the handling, training, and riding Of horses…but horses are not vehicles that move us around just because we’re on them. They’re thinking, feeling beings and we count on their active participation in our equestrian activities.

We will work with you and your equine partner to set the foundation for a mutually trusting and respectful relationship.

Owner and Trainer, JW Horsemanship & Services Joe is a native Texan, living in and around the Houston area for most of his life. He discovered his love of horses and horsemanship about 15 years ago, at an open horse event, and has never looked back. Currently located on a rustic farm in Brenham, TX, Joe runs his Horsemanship School as well as a Board & Train program that accepts a select few horses in for training.

He is also an expert barefoot trimmer, one of the few that will also train horses and donkeys to accept farrier work if they have never learned these skills. Contact us for more information!
