Grand Rapids Based Natural Horsemanship - Hendricks Horsemanship LLC

Change your horse,
change yourself,
change your life!

~Matt Hendricks

Whether you have a great horse and just want to advance your skills, or you have a horse that spooks at everything it sees and refuses to get in a trailer, or somewhere in between, I would love to be able to help you. I can teach you and your horse how to be on the same team and get the results you want. By using natural horsemanship methods and techniques, I am able to help you have a better relationship with your horse, all while learning how to be safe and confident, and how to be a better horseman. Having a light, willing, responsive, and confident horse doesn’t have to just be a dream, it can be a reality.

Matt has the natural ability to understand and work with every horse. He is dedicated not only to helping horses, but also people. Loading my horse onto trailers had always been problematic. Matt worked with my horse and me to make the loading experience positive.

I had Matt work on one of my horses that has never been ridden. Long story short, Matt had him riding under saddle in no time. Very polite and respectable to me and my family. He is a very hard worker and puts in the extra mile to make sure that you and your horse get the attention needed!!

Thank you, Matt, for all you did for Chimmy and thank you for my lessons! You are gifted, and I really appreciate you sharing your gift with Chimmy and I!

Matt has been my preferred and trusted trainer for over three years. He's trained my horses, facilitated lessons, fitted saddles, provided farrier care, and shared invaluable equine advice. Matt clearly has a natural ability to work with both horses and people. However, he is not content to simply get by on talent alone. He is incredibly hard-working, and he constantly strives to gain as much equestrian knowledge as he possibly can. I will continue to work with Matt on my journey with horses.

Thank you!!! He [Tilley] is a completely different horse than I put on the trailer! I am SO excited about him!!

About Matt Hendricks

My name is Matt Hendricks and I am a certified 4 star Jordan Brasser Horsemanship instructor and a 3 star behaviorist. I founded Hendricks Horsemanship LLC to help people and their horses to have a better relationship with each other while at the same time to get better results than they’ve ever achieved before.

Natural Horsemanship That Works

Using time tested and well proven methods, I am able to get you and your horse on the same page. I would love to help you with everything from saddle fitting, to giving you customized one-on-one lessons to help you improve your own horsemanship, or even doing a colt start or behavioral work for you so you can experience the same results that I get with my own horses.
