My name is Paige Lockton, and as an International competitor in the sport of Three-Day Eventing; just a regular girl who came from a small Northern town; I had to learn to make the most of the horses I had. Without money for a string of EASY, athletic, well-trained horses … I had to get creative! To pay for my career in international Eventing, I rode confirmed bolters, anxious mares, and rearing stallions - horses that no one else wanted get on.
“Send it to that long-legged Canadian - SHE’LL RIDE IT! She’ll ride ANYTHING!”
Thankfully, growing up as the daughter of a veterinarian endowed me with an innate ability to calm traumatized animals.
I know what it takes to inspire trust, and create willing partners who are happy to see you at the gate and outperform better bred horses!
I also taught keen adult amateurs from non-horsey families and witnessed them struggle to develop ‘feel’ and the relationship of mutual trust they dreamed of. So often, they just didn’t understand the species, so their reactions were all wrong!
Their intentions were good, but they were unwittingly causing tension that too often ended in rearing, refusals, and losing confidence by the day. I helped them through their frustration as they grappled with assimilating conflicting ‘methods’ between horse pros.
In this unregulated industry where anyone can hang their hat, I have seen EVERYTHING! Where do you start and how do you know who to trust? I get it. No wonder you are confused!
In fact, I struggled with this, too. Over the decades, I was lucky to learn from the best horse people from across the disciplines … but it wasn’t easy! It was confusing to assimilate all of their methods and approaches.
I filtered my learning through my Dad’s lens – a revered vet and horseman – and together we figured out how to gel methodologies and philosophies. We found the ONE THING that ALL the Magicians in the world of Horsecraft agreed on.
Here, we share the first thing you need to know to help YOU develop your instincts, build trust, be the leader your horse needs, and improve your horse-human relationship. We call it, 'Never Holler, 'Whoa!' In A Tight Spot'. It's a philosophy we live by with horses ... AND LIFE!

Chuck and Paige have SO much experience and stories to share! I SO ENJOYED learning from them!

I cross-train in multiple disciplines and run a lesson barn. Their no-nonsense approach helped me surf through the BS in the horse world and keep my lesson horses happy! The Lockton family is leaving a legacy for horses and the humans who love them.

Paige helped me transition from school horses to my first young thoroughbred mare.

Paige has a talent for explaining concepts in a way that people understand. She allowed me to be confident with horses. My husband and I now have our own small farm, and have raised 4 young foals. Thank you Paige for helping me get into this magical world!

Paige helped me adapt my approach with a notoriously fractious jumper-turned-eventer.

I have known Paige for 20 years. She is a dynamic & intuitive teacher who is approachable, caring, humble, and fun loving. From beginner to competitive riders, Paige is the right person to help you and your horse benefit and excel.
