Researching wholistic horsemanship venues throughout MN, I was hoping to find a place and people who respect and care for horses in a way that’s gentle and builds mutual respect. When I found Stacie and Spirit Horse Center, it did not take long to realize that this was the place I wanted to be in and the person I wanted to work with and learn from. Stacie is, hands down, one of the most incredible teachers and a true master of her craft. She has years of experience and knowledge and is committed to continuous improvement for her self, her beautiful venue, and for all of the lovely equine individuals she cares for. She is patient and kind and knows how to listen with her whole heart to both humans and horses. You will not find a better teacher in the Midwest. Stacie and her staff host incredible events and bring in experts from all over the country.

I think this center represents the future of human relationship to healthy, happy horses.Humans are slowly evolving to understand how to honor and respect all animals, not control, dominate and underestimate their intelligence and what they...
Read moreI am so thankful to have found Spirit Horse Center! As a new horse owner I was in need of guidance, training, and boarding. I found all of that and more! My two horses LOVE boarding there. When they aren't there they miss their horse friends and especially Staci, Maranda, and Janelle. Sometimes I think they prefer being at Spirit Horse Center than at home. Both horses have started training and they use holistic training methods and really partner with the horse which was very important to me. I can't wait to continue Firecracker's skills and learning to bond...
