About Pat Holland

Pat has been employed as a private trainer for breeders of nationally recognized Quarter Horses and Norwegian Fjord Horses.
She has over 35 years of experience training and showing horses on a national level and has achieved national and international recognition for her ability.
Today, she prefers to intensively train just a few horses each year, offering each horse a personalized, thorough education.
Pat's thoughts on training horses and coaching owners.
This philosophy is paying off.
