  1. The Sport and History of Western Horsemanship and Rodeos Ariel Nichole Berry AP Literature and Composition Ms. Saunders

  2. The Sport and History of Western Horsemanship and Rodeos • Double G Ranch volunteer work • Summer camp as a product • Prior knowledge

  3. Horsemanship • I found out a lot about horsemanship through my mentor, Leisha Griffith and her husband, Brock Griffith. • Women and barrel racing. • The first bull riding association was the PBR. • Bull riding and calf roping used during religious ceremonies.

  4. Research • If a rider is practicing natural horsemanship correctly, he will never stop working with his horse. • “[Natural horsemanship] is not only about educating horses, but teaching owners to communicate effectively with their horses, by ‘speaking’ a common language” • It takes both a horse and a rider working together to develop communication skills. Horses and the trainers have equal responsibilities.

  5. Product • Summer Camp - 2013 • Horsemanship and rodeos

  6. My Mentor • Leisha Griffith • Accredited Horse Trainer and Barrel Racer. She specializes in barrel racing, riding lessons, confidence building and performance horses. • She won the first All-Women’s Trainer Challenge at Equine Extravangaza and was crowned a champion Colt starter. She also trained and competed in the Extreme Mustang Makeover. She placed 11th in the competition, brought her horse Sweetwater home with her.
